Que los fans de Lana tengamos que tirar de rumores falsos hasta que ella saca un álbum magistral con 16 meses de retraso y una fea portada es una cosa that i am addicted to
“Todos Estamos Bailando La Misma Canción” de La Oreja de Van Gogh es magnífica. Algo así como el “Europa VII” que Amaia se quedó con ganas de hacer, tan pomposa como cualquier composición de la banda. (+)
Dork awards JADE’s debut album #ThatsShowbizBaby 5/5 stars:
“The album delights in its own contradictions. It’s messy but exacting, camp but tender, wry but emotionally direct. JADE has described her approach as ‘Frankenstein’-ing songs together – ‘Frankenstein pop’, if you like – and it fits: tracks veer between modes, sewn together at unlikely angles, switching register just as they seem to be settling. In less capable hands, the whole thing would dissolve into novelty, but the chaos is held in place by a centre of gravity that is pure personality. This is music that thrives on audacity, a kind of knowing, distinctly British audacity cheek with an instinct to undercut drama with humour and to let a punchline land right in the middle of a heart-on-sleeve confession.
At the centre is a voice that finally has room to sprawl. She belts like a diva one moment, murmurs like a conspirator the next, tosses off a whistle-note flourish for the sheer pleasure of showing she can, then snaps back into deadpan spoken asides. What keeps it compelling is that she’s not simply demonstrating range, she’s inhabiting characters. The impression is of someone who understands that performance is as much about persona as technique – that the joy comes in the costume changes, the arched eyebrow, the decision to sell melodrama one second and parody it the next. The production is equally happy to exaggerate, shoving drums to the front, letting basslines distort, scattering glitzy synths. It’s brash, sometimes gaudy, but always alive.
Crucially, it matters because it sounds like authorship. Rather than the cautious solo calling card, JADE delivers something unreplicable – a maximalist scrapbook of camp excess, neurotic confession, British banter and sheer vocal horsepower. In an era where pop often irons itself flat to fit the algorithmic playlists, or provides a form of rebellion so smooth it’s lacking any form of edge, she’s gone the other way. Bold strokes, messy joins, songs that lurch and clash and dazzle, it’s an album that insists on being an event.
Jade isn’t just trying to step out of a shadow; she’s pulling the curtain down and setting the scenery alight. It’s loud, gaudy, dazzling, sometimes absurd – and absolutely alive. If this is the debut, imagine the encore. That’s showbiz, baby.”
