Album Notes
Personnel includes: Natalie Imbruglia.Producers: Paul Thornalley, Mark Goldenberg, Andy Wright, Matt Bronleewee.Natalie Imbruglia was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Best New Artist. "Torn" was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.One thing is for certain, Natalie Imbruglia has her late-'90s Pop Chick thing down. The slightly off-kilter melodies, the artfully sampled rhythms, the Fionaesque cover photo, the romantic sturm und drang lyrics, the tasteful synth and electric piano, the in-your face vocals, it's all here. Anyone enamored of Alanis, Meredith Brooks, the aforementioned Apple or their artier godmother Tori should find plenty of reason to rejoice on LEFT OF THE MIDDLE. It's a seamless pop artifact, with nary a leak anywhere in the ship, from production to songwriting to performance, and it's easy to see why this album placed newcomer Natalie on the top of the charts.

Editorial Reviews
...waivers from infectious jangley to scary trip-hop.
Melody Maker (19971129)

3 stars out of 5 - ...a good, ahem, left-of-the-middle pop album in 1997 and it still sounds good. The soaring slide guitar and imploring vocals of 'Torn' still make an eager, instant impression....Not bad at all.

This is a complete album. Too often artists make 1 good song and put it on an album with a bunch of bad/mediocre songs. Natalie Imbruglia has delivered a power packed CD with one great song after another.

Natalie Imbruglia CD

Created: 18/11/06
I first bought this album on cassette. Then I purchased the CD. My CD's were all lost in a move I made and after hearing "Torn" on my XM radio a few times I remembered that the rest of the CD was also pretty good. Hence I went looking for it again but unfortunately none of the stores around me carry it anymore. So before I went looking on Amazon or Best Buy I decided to try eBay first, and lo and behold I found it. My copy came in excellent condition and plays perfectly. What i like about it is she is hot, that picture of her on the cover is great, and believe it or not, the music is pretty good also. I don"t have one complaint about this cd. It is something different to listen to when I'm feeling mellow in which case Disturbed, Korn, Coal Chamber, and Mushroomhead just are not the type of music to relax to.

The hit "Torn" is worth the price of the CD! Amazing.

I LOVE the hit "Torn". There are sevral other strong cuts. I'd term the CD in it's entirety to be very good. "Torn" is EXCELLENT! Natalie was nominated for a Grammy for "Torn" and she deserved it! Introspective, intelligent lyrics.

Natalie Who...? Oh, the "Torn" Girl...!

Created: 20/12/07
Face it. There is one song on the album. And, yes, Natalie DID NOT write it. She just made it her own... It is still worth the time and effort to find the album, and keep it on your rotation... JMHO...
