Mountain Lily on CD

Donna always features excellent religious tunes on her albums, filled with earnestness and passion, and this record is no different. A homage to her beliefs, Safe affirms Donna's gift for writing the just-right lyrics and for delivering them in emotion-drenched vocals that float on the sonically spacious acoustic instrumentation. Indeed, a song such as this could be easily interpreted as a secular love song, or simply a paean to devotion, no matter what form it may take. She is even more direct with the glorious hymn-like My Constant Saviour, which sounds like a church favourite of many decades standing, yet is a new creation co-written with Taylor Amos and is the perfect way to close this enticing album.
