A powerful, cranking voice which can also croon a plaintive song with the best of them; that’s Anne-Lie Ryde in a nutshell. The Swedish singer originally released this album Segla På Ett Moln, which means Sailing on a Cloud in 1983. It’s a collection of upbeat rock tunes with the occasional slower tempo tune blended in, creating space for her to show off her vocal range and style. She can be categorized as a pop-rock artist, but her songs have something which is out of the ordinary day to day pop-rock and thus draw you in. My favorite track on this CD is Deidre's Samba. I don’t speak Swedish but it doesn’t really matter. Her melodies are interesting and her voice is really good so the universal attraction of good music is present on this CD from start to finish.
Here is the title track, Segla på ett moln. She can really belt out a ballad, can't she?
