It's not often that I get REALLY excited about a cd, but since September, two have come along that I can barely keep off my iPod. The first was Lincoln Brewster's fabulous "Today Is The Day" album, and now the debut from major label hotshot Francesca Battistelli.

What makes this album doubly exciting is that Battistelli is a committed, and very open Christian, a fact which comes over loud and clear on this Warner Brothers/Curb release.

Aside from a very cute paper heart shaped lyric booklet, you first notice just how mature a songwriter this 23 year old from New York City really is.

I have a little bit of an obssesive personality. (i know, you couldn’t have guessed that could you??) I tend to get addicted to things for periods of time. Like, I’ll get hooked on a certain cd, or tv show or whatever. This is what I’m addicted to right now… this is Francesca Battistelli. The song is called Free to be Me. She tells the story of how the song came about b4 she sings it, it’s a funny little story. I just luv her voice and how she tells stories w/ her songs.

Today I heard a song by Francesca Battistelli called "Time In Between." It's a gorgeous song. I don't actually know what it's about since I only heard it once, but the title inspired me.
