ALBUM

Amy Macdonald schurkt zich hier tegen mainstream aan, maar haar diepe gegrom zorgt voor genoeg tegendraadsheid om A Curious Thing niet al te gemakkelijk toegankelijk te maken. Als je Macdonalds gepassioneerde stemgeluid echter wegdenkt, dan kabbelt A Curious Thing makkelijk voort als een beekje, dat door de precisie en de zoete melodieën een spiegelglad oppervlak heeft, zowel in de ballads als in de steviger folksongs. De productie van de plaat is het duidelijkste teken dat Macdonald hier mikt op een breder publiek, maar haar nummers geven ook aan dat ze misschien iets te snel een tweede plaat wilde maken; ze schrijft net iets te vaak over haar eigen ervaringen met roem. Dit stoort een beetje op A Curious Thing, maar het doet niets af aan de aantrekkelijkheid van de volwassen radiopop met een kloppend hart.
