Air – Moon Safari

Posted by lt on April 11, 2008

Bought this on the recommendation of those on Amazon, who you can usually trust. It’s a chillout CD from French band Air.

It’s quite a decent CD. ‘La Femme d’Argent’ is a very nice sounding chill song, but it runs into ‘Sexy Boy’, which isn’t. The robotic voice is annoying, and the CD feels annoyingly long even though it’s one of the shortest I have, because all the songs are the same.

Let’s leave it to Gustav on Amazon to explain the rest:

Moon Safari gets a bit of praise and claim to be the best Air album. I honestly cannot tell why. There is only two or three songs on here worth listening to and one is basically a continuation of the other.

“La femme d’argent” – a fantastic track. Its the only song on this cd worth listening to.
“Sexy Boy” – a terrible, horrible, disgusting track. Every time it starts I hit the Next button. I can’t stand this song.

“All I Need” – bores me to tears.
“Kelly Watch The Stars” – tries to be a good song but doesn’t quite make it.
“Talisman” – This one is more a “La femme d’argent” part 2 so its good as well.
“Remember” – This one tries to be good too. Its slightly better than “Kelly Watch The Stars”
“You Make It Easy” – another continuation. This time it’s “All I Need” part 2. Still bores me to tears.
“Ce matin-là” – On the level of “Kelly Watch The Stars.”
“New Star In The Sky” – listen to this on as well. Its very good.
“Le voyage de Penelope” – On the level of “Remember”
