Why would you send in a CD for review to THE BIGGEST LETDOWN when you are known as KEYBOARD CATHY?!?!?!?! I just don't get this! Cathy seems like a really nice lady - and she even sent in a personalized note with her album - but what's the deal? I feel as though I'm the fat kid walking through the lunch line with a sign on my butt that says Wide Load. Why is everyone staring at me? Why do the kids keep getting out of my way and mumble strange things under their breath???
Now, I must start out by apologizing to Cathy. I'm sorry that it's taken me well over a month to review your album. I've had it sitting on my stereo for quite some time because I wasn't sure what I was supposed to do. Cathy, you've confused me. I have even listened to your CD - from beginning to end - a handful of times now. It's a pleasent sound. Think of Broadway showtunes and a keyboard-playing woman. But why would THE BIGGEST LETDOWN be your choice to submit your music to? Is it our name? Did you figure What the hell? They can't be that bad?
You have a song called Sushi Lover. You obviously love it. You mention sushi over and over again. I feel like you're advertising for sushi. Has sushi really been that good to you? What may be the hidden meaning behind this song?
I also see that you like books. You're one of those ladies who reads a lot, right? Well, it's nice to see that the lost art of reading is not going to waste. If other people like you (who come from New Jersey) are reading, then it's worth all the paper we're killing trees for.
Apparently our demographic for people who look at this website must be in the upper-30s and love New Age inspirational music. Since the last 3 albums that have come across my doorstep have been this genre, then I must admit to myself that our fans have all grown up over the years. Jesus, that's a scary thought.
Ok, so on a final note about this album - Keyboard Cathy is doing what she loves. It's not punk, and it's not metal. It's singing about things she likes. Maybe at her live performances she goes nuts and rips off her clothes to reveal wild and tantilizing tattoos all over her body. Maybe not. Ladies, if you want to sit up in your room and cry after you catch your boyfriend getting it on with your best friend, then this is the album that needs to be in your CD player. Guys, if you're trying to think of a way to tell your other friends that you have a different sexual preference than they think, then this would also be the CD for you to own. Play it all the time.
Cathy, bravo! Thanks for submitting your music. Here's a crazy plug for your website!
