Sweetbox - Sometimes

Review by Bambang Dwi Atmoko

Sometimes, the fourth studio album by Sweetbox, is a musical journey that takes the listener on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. The album, released in 2004, features a unique blend of classical music, pop, and hip hop, with a touch of R&B.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful "Life Is Cool," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The next track, "Crown of Thorns," is a powerful ballad that showcases the vocal range of lead singer Jade Villalon.

"Sometimes" is the title track and the most popular song on the album. It features a catchy chorus that will stay in your head for days. "Falling" is another standout track, with its infectious beat and memorable hook.

The album also includes some slower, more introspective songs, such as "More Than Love" and "Hate Without Frontiers." These tracks showcase Villalon's emotional depth and vulnerability as a songwriter.
