MP3 Joe Ongie - Critical Darling
16 MP3 Songs
POP: Beatles-pop, POP: 60''s Pop
Details:
"Four albums in, Joe Ongie has established himself as one of pop''s great undiscovered wonders, a master songsmith with an unerring ability to spin irresistible hooks from magnetic melodies and stinging lyrical barbs." Lee Zimmerman. Goldmine Magazine 07/04
"Joe Ongie: Benevolent songbird or despotic audio god? You know all that fine music by Elvis Costello, Matthew Sweet, Jon Brion, etc. that you never hear on the radio? Ongie''s work is at least as deserving of media neglect. Like those more famed songsmiths, his work has a similar serious-pop bent, and his best songs aren''t just good for a local, but could hold their own anywhere, if there was anywhere to hold them in this era of dumbed-down radio." OCWeekly 2/04
"Beck meets Fiona Apple in a martini lounge." OCMetro 2/04
"...every year or two, Joe emerges from his fortress of solitude/recording studio with a little masterpiece of a solo album, where his songs are never so full of rich wordplay as to obscure the soaring pop melodies at their heart, the son of a bitch..." O.C. Weekly 12/03
16 big tracks! Lots of notes. Lots of words, too! Melodies included. An hour of pop poetry. It''s happy, it''s sad, it''s you....
A Note From Joe: "Critical Darling" comes in a simple four-color cardboard sleeve (with beautiful photos by Shelly Frasier) - no more of those messy plastic jewel boxes. I believe that websites are the album covers of tomorrow (and today), so it''s at https://www.tradebit.com that you can find all of the song details, lyrics, pretty pictures of me, etc. In the near future, I will also be including outtakes and bonus tracks from the CD on the site. Keep checking back!
