专辑介绍

Marit自M2M单飞后的第一张专辑，当时听到的第一个感觉就非常的好。也的确如此，作为首张单飞作品，《Under the Surface》在当年的各项排名及各类评论中都得到了相当的肯定，可以说是对专辑质量、更是Marita本身音乐理念与坚持的最好证明。

整张专辑给人的印象是轻松而又清新的。曲与曲之间、一首歌之中音乐的完美衔接与融合是给耳朵最好的赏赐。而对于Marit的声音，大家应该更是不陌生，配上这样的歌曲，只能感叹仿佛量身裁衣般合适到位。

推荐欣赏的时间是明媚的午后，晒太阳，做自己喜欢的事，一边听着她轻轻吟唱的声音。这是一个梦境中的世界，温暖的，宁静的。（by Verycd）

The solo debut by Marit Larsen, formerly of well-regarded Norwegian teen pop duo M2M, is a marvelous surprise and a treat not only for fans of that group, but any lover of rootsy, melodic folk or just plain old pop/rock. Already a seven-year veteran of the music business when she recorded it at 22, Larsen turns in a remarkably assured set of inventive, original songs that draw equally from folk, pop, and country. Her distinctive writerly voice encompasses both a sprightly playfulness and a self-consciously mature anxiety, as reflected in her penchant for outsized, almost bombastically melodic choruses tempered by more tentative, delicate verses. After the brief, sweetly understated preamble of "In Came the Light," the title tune rushes in with a frenzied swirl of schmaltzy, Disney-esque strings and bells, but its romantic exuberance is swiftly undercut by a yearning verse melody and a narrator so enraptured and yet so wracked by jealous doubt that she can barely even stand her lover's presence. This sort of crippling insecurity crops up repeatedly -- in the self-effacing unrequited lover/loner of "Recent Illusion," and the snooping, paranoid housewife of "This Time Tomorrow," a jangly waltz whose awkward second-person perspective and forced, unconvincing premise make it the album's sole lyrical weak link. In each case, it's made achingly more poignant by Larsen's resonant delivery -- there's so much warmth and sweetness in her voice that even in her most forlorn moments you can practically hear a smile determined to break through the pathos....
