JEALOUSY (by Natalie Merchant: Tigerlily)

SUMMARY:                             RUNNING TIME: 2:41 Min.

After departing 10,000 Maniacs, its lead vocalist, Natalie Merchant, launched her solo debut with 1995’s Tigerlily album.  This soft rock track, along with “Carnival” and “Wonder,” were radio hits and inspired MTV music videos.  “Jealousy” was written by Merchant herself.  

REVIEW:

Its running length correctly implies album filler, but “Jealousy” easily surpasses modest expectations.  From an upbeat vocal performance by Natalie Merchant and a catchy melody, this song wisely keeps this tune short.  More significantly, a Merchant’s insightful lyrics re: a love triangle of sorts expresses plenty in few words.  For those who haven’t listened to Tigerlily before, this soft-spoken tune makes a tempting advertisement to seek this album for several high-caliber tracks
