Album Description:
Thirteens, the fourth album from Leona Naess (first for Verve Forecast), is one of mixed emotions - a "mixed tape" of sorts. The songs of mourning, realization, muted joy, and true giddiness were taken from more than 13 albums worth of songs Naess composed during a time after her father's unexpected death in 2004. The variety of moods and lo-fi production perfectly compliment Naess' soft, misty voice on tracks such as "Leave Your Boyfriends Behind" and "Learning As We Go."

Rating: - Leona Naess "Thirteens"
WOW! Whatever side tracked this amazing singer and song writer in her pervious albums I am grateful is in the past. "Thirteens" is a masterpiece in every way. Hauntingly beautiful and catchy lyrics. A beautiful and fun album from beginning to end.
Rating: - Another great album from Leona
I have been a fan of Ms. Naess since I first saw her opening for Travis at the Showbox in Seattle (approx. four albums ago).Her newest offering Thirteens is quite good... though my favorite album is still probably "I Tried to Rock You...".

- B&N has 2 bonus tracks
This is my favorite Leona Naess album, probably her best work so far. Very emotional and relaxing. While she isn't the most profound lyricist, her music is very enjoyable to listen to, and a relief from all the cookie cutter pop that has pervaded the music industry.
FYI, I bought the album at Barnes and Noble and their version has two bonus tracks: On My Toes and Hiccups. Nice songs, they fit very well with the theme of the album.
