Everything's Eventual

I don't do modern "pop" music but I was Impressed with this album as it seemed to have a rocky sound to it. Yet I have always loved the single- Don't Worry, a beautiful sentimental song in my opinion. I bought this as a random gift for somebody who refused it! So I listened to it once or twice and have had no regrets in adding it to my ever growing extensive collection. Was never an All Saints fan though! My musical roots are bedded in rock but it's nice to take a break from the norm occasionally.Give it an audition, you may be presently surprised!

The first, of what will hopefully be many albums from Appleton - formerly one half of All Saints. Expect the unexpected!The debut album is a real mix of classic and innovative pop music and gives an insight to the music these girls must have been listening to growing up. Influences/references include; The Beatles (especially the George Martin productions), The Carpenters, The B-52's and a host of others. But only the best is borrowed - they come not to copy but to build upon a great foundation. After just a few plays this CD will definitely find a place in your soul. Some of the vocals are absolute heaven and will melt even the hardest of hearts, particularly "Anyone", "Waiting 4 Your Love" and "Ring A Ding Ding". Other stand out tracks are "M.W.A." and "Blow My Mind". If you have only heard the two singles, "Fantasy" and "Don't Worry", the latter is probably most indicative of what to expect.There are some similarities to All Saints material, but mostly this is a bold new direction and should be welcomed. Forget the tabloid headlines, the famous partners and all the extraneous baggage. This is an album you will enjoy.Two minor flaws to an otherwise perfect album: the lack of lyrics on the CD insert is a disappointment, and in my opinion, the order of the tracks could have been bettered ("Blow My Mind" should have been earlier in the album, leaving the moving "Anyone" as the conclusion).More soon, Please!Update: 10 years on this CD still sounds wonderful and shows no signs of ageing. What would be great now is a re-release with the three additional tracks (Sugarman, Open to Suggestion & I'm Your Angel) that were available as b-sides to the singles. Plus, a DVD with all the videos. I already have two copies of the CD, and would buy a third!

I didn't know this album...for me was surprise!!! I have all albums of All Saints but this is very different as kind of music...Appleton has their style...I suggest to buy it!!! I think that you won't remain disappointed!

What a shame that this is the only "solo" outing by the Appleton sisters, because it's a beautiful, seductive experience that definitely left me wanting more. Don't go looking for stand out tracks, you won't find them, what you will find is sheer pleasure! I recommend that this album is listened to in one sitting for maximum impact.

Great thank you

This is PURE POP and more... One of the finest albums i heard in a long time... grreaattttt

Writing this review in 2012 and this album still gets regular plays by me and often ends up back on my iPod.I was a big All Saints fan but can admit that their albums often didn't show much consistency. This is where Appleton's 'Everything's Eventual' really shines. The album flows wonderfully and I'd even go so far as to say it's the record All Saints as a group should have made after their success with Pure Sures and Black Coffee (though I do love their Saints and Sinners album).The best thing about this record is the harmonies and then the lyrics. Songs like Ring-a-ding-ding for example impress and show a craft that can easily compete with Shaznay Lewis.The only song I don't enjoy as much is Long Long Road as it does seem a little bit like a filler track.I would also recommend hunting down the singles for the amazing B-Sides which, quite frankly, could have been album tracks - especially 'Open To Suggestion'.

Who would have thought that the Appleton sisters would ever reconsider coming back to the music scene after all the stress and arguing they went through with Shazney Lewis and Melanie Blatt. I was convinced Melanie Blatt would be the one that continues her career once she released "24/7" with Artful Dodger.But the release of "Fantasy" brought Appleton back to business when it got to number 2. Rumours said that Appleton were dropped by the record company before they had a chance to release the album, that would have been believable in the past six months where we didn't hear anything from the girls. But after six months they have returned with another top five single "Don't Worry" and the fantastic album "Everythings Eventual". How can I describe the album when the title says it all, it is an amazing album which is nothing like any other artists out there in the music industry. The album has a variarty of music catergories such as, rock (Fantasy, blow my mind) Indie (Don't Worry, Anyone) and songs that have the All Saints feeling (Ring A Ding Ding, W.M.A.)It is hard for a big fan of Appleton such as me to give the album fives stars without being Biased, but I have listened to so many times, and I have found that the songs are addictive, and incredible. "Everythings Eventual" is full of mixed emotions, and has proven that Appleton have pure talent.It was worth the wait, and is worth the time, so if your a fan of Appleton then I strongly recommend this album.
