Beth Orton - Daybreaker album cover | |||||||||||||||
Beth Orton released in 2002 her third album Daybreaker, which was followed in 2003 by The Other Side of Daybreak. The album reached #40 in US and #8 in UK. Mojo Magazine (8/02, p.102) reviewed the album as "...this is her best to date...". Q Magazine (Aug 2002, p.131) was not excited about the album: "Tortoise-pace strumming and a crippling shortage of choruses produce only torpor". The album earned Orton a nomination at the BRIT Awards for Best British Female as well as Best Album at the Q Awards.
In an interview to Insound.com on 28 July, 2002 she said about making the record: "We recorded 25 songs in two weeks with the whole band. Then there's the stuff I did with Johnny. There's stuff all over the place. And these are the ten songs that ended up being on the record because for me they encapsulate the mood best of the time we are recording the album. It took about six months altogether. That's not too bad. It was probably actually a year because I was looking for someone to do the mixing and things weren't working out." Track listing: 1. "Paris Train" (Barnes, Orton) 2. "Concrete Sky" (Marr, Orton) 3. "Mount Washington" (Orton) 4. "Anywhere" (Orton) 5. "Daybreaker" (Orton) 6. "Carmella" (Orton) 7. "God Song" (Orton) 8. "This One's Gonna Bruise" (Adams, Orton) 9. "Ted's Waltz" (Adams, Orton) 10. "Thinking About Tomorrow" (Barnes, Orton, Read, Steinberg) Japanese version features 2 bonus tracks: "Ali's Waltz" and "Bobby Gentry", both also on the Concrete Sky EP. | |||||||||||||||
