Anouk - Ball And Chain

“I know the drill, you got your ball & chain.” First, let’s take a private moment & say Happy Birthday Anouk! 10 years in the recording business, and still singing powerfully! Now on to the real business at hand – this song starts off with a voice, close to sneering, but definitely in the rock tradition. The guitar & bass quickly join the story. “Don’t wait for things to blow up in your pretty face.” Uplifting song that spreads the message – be alert, be yourself, live your life to its fullest potential. The orchestration is close to being overwhelming, but Anouk’s vocal meal has the strength to match the intensity. Tasty addition to a fine body of work through the years. Anouk
