Wings Over Water - Get Used To It (Kids of the Future Music, BMI 2001)

By Elizabeth Nitz

This album starts out by grabbing the listener's attention with the infectiously funny funk number, "Get Used To It." Kathy Moser, Wings' singer/songwriter, battles criticism with clever tact as she sings, "I can tell you the next time you open your mouth to criticize me you're going to be talking to yourself."

Latin flavored "If I Could Love" features a clarinet and more serious lyrics about surviving an abusive father. Switching gears a bit, "Waiting for the Light" feels like country. Kathy's voice effortlessly fills each role, making it hard to figure out which genre she prefers.

"Compelled to the Edge" returns to playful funk with the Hammond organ. Slowing it down, she sings, "now the storm is rising, it's baptizing, the world I knew is capsizing," in the sad, slow "Raining Inside."

Diversity of songwriting is met with diversity of instruments. They incorporate horns, strings and creative percussion to give each song a full but different sound. They have generated a fun, professional album. For more information, see www.WingsOverWater.net
