Review : Ok I
have had this cd for a year now and still only like about 4 tracks off it. They
include the opening track, just because it has this British women that pretends
that she is an online phone recording that gives you options how you can kill your self. This is kind of like
a play of help lines, gone horribly
wrong. Then eurotrash mainly for the clip (sample) that they use, once again. I
don’t know most of the lyrics of it are something Orgy would have written on a
bad day. And we all know what brilliant lyrics they all come up with.
This is
the kind of cd that you would put in if you are feeling immature and silly…with
an new wave 80’s pop feel. There songs have a simple beat and defiantly are
danceable, especially if you are a drunken
collage girl looking for attention on the dance floor.

Review : This cd came
out about a month and a half ago, and of course I bought it right away being the
girly girl that I am, however I could not decide what I felt about it until now.
In some aspects this is kind of like a sampler cd of all the different type of
music that she has made through out her career. With songs like “Who the fxxk”
remind me of more of her “punk” days. If she ever had any. Then “pocket knife”
is a classic eerie tale that sound like Patti Smith and talks about how she can't where a wedding
dress because it will stain….then she obscurely says “how did you feel when you
were young? Because I feel like I’ve just been born, even though I’m getting
old”. This is interesting to me because this is the first time in any of her
songs where she has said that she’s getting old. She will always be 25 or 27 to
me.
As I stated
before, I felt that this cd was a over view of all her cd’s, yet for the most
part it does flow together quite nicely. It is not all blotchy and overly time
edited. Another thing that I wanted to mention about this cd was the art work
for it. On the cover you see Polly looking stern at the camera while in a
car…I’m am figuring that she took the picture her self just like the rest of the
pictures in side the cd. It is a history of her life basically with pictures
that she has taken of her self over the years. In some of them she looks lost,
unhappy, despite, shy, rock star-ish, most of all in all of them she looks
completely different. It’s like her facial structure has changed over the
years..yet you know its her, her lips are different, her hair is different,
make-up, eye brows…but it is still her under her skin.
