This CD sets an example. It bids farewell to the never ending grumbling and groaning about the dark future, and the demise of culture in the age of the TV-commercial and the ring-tone. “We should not take life too seriously all the time”, says Viktoria Tolstoy, which does not go to say that she makes life simpler than it is. Pictures Of Me, the singer’s third release on ACT makes the impossible seem easy: It celebrates profundity with ease, retains artistic integrity, yet oozes a feelgood spirit that is infectious, and shows that even some of pop’s greatest masterpieces can still be perfected further. An amazing feat!Paul Simon, Prince, Peter Gabriel, Stevie Wonder, Alan Parsons, Seal, Van Morrison – for the repertoire on Pictures Of Me, Viktoria Tolstoy has looked only to the best for inspiration.
