Wonderful CD December 29, 2008
M. S. Sanders (GA USA)
I heard "Insensitive" on Pandora Radio and was hooked. Found the CD in a used CD store, so I bought it. I've just about worn it out. Jann Arden says one of her inspirations growing up was Karen Carpenter. Mine, too. Arden's voice isn't as velvety or as purely perfect as Carpenter's. Certainly the arrangements aren't as lush. But Arden's voice is more immediate. She seems more worldly, been-there-done-that, though never too jaded to sing her signature "Good Mother." If you enjoy Karen Carpenter, Joni Mitchell, Dar Williams, Sara Bareilles, Anna Nalick, Beth Orton, et al, you will probably enjoy Jann Arden.
I attended a Jann Arden live concert on Thurs., Aug. 07, 2007! September 11, 2007

The concert opened the Fergus(Ontario) Highland Games. Entrance charge totaled $39.00 CDA (tax included)for this outdoor concert which Jann sandwiched between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. What a buy, and for a two hour concert! She is truly a gifted Canadian talent!

For those of us that do not live in Canada, we have to say Jann Who?
I bought this album after it was suggested by Amazon.
Thank you!
For those of us who enjoy the having pretty girls sing to us this is a dream come true of a 11 year old album. I recently read an essay by one of my favorite writers, bemoaning the lack of Carol King, Carly Simon, kind of singer song writers in popular music today. I guess that only applies to everyone except Canada, as Jann Arden, Amanda Marshal etc, are making exactly the kind of music he (and I), miss on the radio today.
"Living Under June" is a top flight kind of album spanning from pop, ("Insensitive") to broody (I would Die For You), to bluesy Jazz, (It Looks Like Rain). Although her newer CD's are also very good, if you are new to Jann Arden, "Living Under June" is the Album to start with. You won't regret it.
One of my All time FAVORITES December 12, 2005

This is one of the Best CD's I have ever heard! I had to burn the original to keep it in perfect condition so I wouldn't wear it out... It has some of the best songs, one of my three favorites is from my favorite movie "Bed of Roses" the song "Insensitive"! No matter how many times I have listened to this CD, I really love it and have to sing along. I also really loved "Could I be your Girl?" and "Unloved". There is not one bad song on the whole CD. If you liked "Insensitive" you'll love the rest of the songs as well.
