Listen To This: A Revelation

Filed under: Listen To This

If you like Sarah McLachlan or The Wreckers, then you will LOVE this song!

It's called Gardenia and it's pretty pretty pretty, but it's also much more.

It's a defiant anthem. It's the statement of a young woman coming into her own. And, though not exactly new, we've been playing it on repeat all weekend long.

CLICK HERE to find out who sings this song. You might be surprised!

It's Mandy Moore!

And, the exquisite song is off her new album, Wild Hope.

      I LOVE MANDY MOORE!!!!!!!!
      This song and the rest of Wild Hope is really great. I've always loved her voice and demeanor…doesn't seem like she'll go off the deep end.

      This song has been my fav since she released her album. The whole Album is awsome. Mandy Moore is so underrated. Everyone needs to go out and buy the album, or download it from i-tunes. If they love this song they'll love the rest too.

      This song is so good! I listened to it before I even knew who it was by. I love Mandy Moore. She is one of the few women in hollywood that has remained classy.

      wow! @ 1st I thought 'Bleechh it's jewel,' but as the song played on I heard how amazing it is Mandy's voice is really strong now. Did she play the piano too?

      Saw her in concert last summer and she and her band were amazing. Without dancers, fancy stage set, or costumes she managed with her voice and presence to make it one of the best concerts I've ever been to.
      I have the "Wild Hope" album in my car's cd changer. Like someone already mentioned, this is a great road cd.

      i've always loved mandy moore the most. i wish we were best friends lol
      more posts about mandy moore, i say! because she's fabulous, not a basket case, and admits that she loves to swear. xD

      She is lovely. I have always liked her and I am really glad that she is finally recording songs that do not cater to the teens. Lovely song. Best wishes on her new album.

      Loving this song…might check out some of her other stuff now. This is good.

    43. Saray says – reply to this


      243

      this song sucks, her other stuff is much better! It sounds like she's trying to hard.

    44. Austin John says – reply to this


      244

      It's good. But i hate what she does with her breath. She lets all of her air out at the ends of pharses. POP habbits die hard.

    45. Fulton Greenwall says – reply to this


      245

      It's a very beautiful song. Mandy's newest album "Wild Hope" is amazing. it's not the type of stuff that would tear up the charts, but the entire album is rock solid, and she is an amazing singer. Plus, she is so beautiful. I think she has found her style, she should really embrace it and make it work for her. She doesn't need to sell millions of records, i think it's more important that the music means something and is the type of stuff to last. There are millions of Britney types, but only 1 Mandy Moore..

    57. sassysassygirl says – reply to this


      257

      sounds like a real adult with a great voice - unlike all of the pop star singers that have a silly fake sound with terrible backgroung noise to cover up how much they can not sing. Good for her for keeping herself focused.
