Danielle Brisebois (Official Thread)

[Soot and Stars]

Danielle Brisebois Official Website

Danielle Brisebois is in my opinion the best female pop artist to ever grace my ears! Her lack of mainstream success in my opinion is that she was/is way ahead of her time (she made solo music from '94 to '99). I think by working with Greg Alexander, who she also did backing vocals on under "The New Radicals, she learned to bring out a unique attitude in all of her songs. Danielle sings with sass and her pipes are impressive! Fortunately, after two c.d.s that are growing to be cult classics she's found success in songwriting. Songs and artist that she has written or co-written for are Natasha Bedingfield (Unwritten, Pocketful of Sunshine), Kelly Clarkson, Carly (Hennessy) Smithson (later of Idol fame), Donna Summer and Kylie Minogue amongst others! The stamp she leaves is obvious!

Her three albums:

My personal favorite tracks are:

Just Missed the Train
(This song has been wh***ed out so many times! This is the original and best by far)



I've Had It (my favorite)



Promise Tomorrow Tonight (great duet with Greg Alexander)


Rip In Heaven



What if God Fell From the Sky



Danielle finally has her unreleased 2nd album "Portable Life", which would be my holy grail of c.d.s in physical form, available in a digital which should give her newer ears a chance to realize her talent! Check her out for yourselves!

Fixed the vid dude! Thanks for telling me! It's a great song!

I have a method to all my madness MP! I was very surprised that this thread was sinking since it's inception. I figured that at the least the nostalgia and curiosity of Archie Bunkers girl would get this thread some love!

Re: Danielle Brisebois

Finally I have the physical copy of this album and it's playing in my home right now:

Since college this has been my Holy Grail of c.d.s to have. It's always been so expensive though ranging from 60 to 300 bucks. Only promotional copies were out there and most are/were used. I finally settled on getting a used copy and ponied up the money. I've been listening to the songs for years but to have it on disc is a shining moment for me. It's glorious!

Congratulations Sooty, I know the feeling when you finally get hold of something that's rare and you've lusted after for a long time.
