Emma's Imagination- Stand Still

As I searched Emma's Imagination's 2011 album Stand Still in to try to find a song that really well represented the album, all I could come up with was her cover of the 2007 Academy Award winning song “Falling Slowly” (written by Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova) from the film Once. Stand Still as a whole has very little flow and none of the album's original songs really stand out. On the bright side, singer Emma Gillespie's voice is incredible. I really hope that she gets the opportunity to work with a creative team that can put her to good use in the future. I will keep an ear out for Emma’s Imagination, but this album is a pass for anyone looking for real substance in their January listening choices.
