Album Notes

Review on the song by Scrutinears:

"What a stunningly enchanting production this is in every way. So hard to place this creation because it is quite unique but probably it could be enjoyed equally by lovers of Classical, Rock Opera, Psychedelia or even New age or Folk because the female singer has the soft, sweet voice of a Celtic chantreuse

Everything about Witness is precise and as delicate as a butterfly alighting on water or leaving its tiny imprint on a freshly iced cake. There is a clarity and resonance which rings out as special.

The deftly played piano welcomes the listener and promotes a feeling of anticipation for something good to follow - stringed instruments act as a support to the vocal message, simple and clear "You're so beautiful" - There are passages of whimsy that stop you in your tracks, a section where each word in struck with a thumping pulse to emphasize the emotion "Let me be a witness of your life" The slightest drum roll lingers in the background.

What a carefree abandonment there is to this whole flavoursome composition. The image created is of fairy-like poses to the dancing rhythm, imagine flailing arms and a toss of the head, a spinning, skipping lift that is so spiritually uplifting. But this song also has strength, it grows with an urgent intensity, it peaks with a chorus section as its flower blossoms proudly. Indeed this is a celebration of beauty, exquisitely performed. A stand alone song that should be heard by any aspiring artist as an example of perfection."


The song "Witness" is the first single taken
from the new album "I am You" by
Nicole Eitner and the Citizens to be released soon in 2010.

"Let me be a witness of your life".
Everybody is a witness of somebody's life,
we need to share moments and thoughts.
This is meant as the essence of true love,
of an eternal love - the urge to share.
We want to love because we need a witness of our own lives...

I was inspired by Susan Sarandon's words
in the motion picture "Shall we dance" with
Richard Gere and Jennifer Lopez.
