Q Magazine's Stuart Maconie gave it 3 stars (out of 5) and stressed it's atmospheric and jazzy aspects. He picked out Little Star and Proposal as being 'quite beautiful'. I must say I have to agree.
Channel 4's Teletext service music magazine Grooves featured Stina's second album in the top 10 of 1994. The reviewer -one Paul Goddard- suggested that Stina was an odd combination of Tori Amos, Bjork, and Sinead O'Connor. He also noted that her music was almost narcotic in it's intensity.
Our Price included the album in a promotion headed 8 Ear Grattifying Titles in Q Magazine. Describing Stina as an former member of Sweden's Communist Youth League it noted that she had grown up listening to her father's records eg Bartok, Satie, Coltrane, which still very much influence her music today. It also suggested that she had a 'highly personal voice' most visible on tracks liked Viewed From The Spire and Little Star.
The single Little Star found found itself in the 10th birth in Vox magazine's top 10 singles of 1994. It must be a particularly impressive achievement considering the song didn't all that much air play. Having said that Radio 1's Mark Radcliffe seemed to quite like it.
Personally, I thought that the second album represents a significant step forward from her debut though songs like Alone at Night, A Walk in the Park He Watches Her From Behind I found particularly beguiling. Some people appear to be slightly put off by her rather high pitched child-like voice but to me it sounds enchanting. I think that Q magazine's decsion to only give Memories of a Color 2 stars was because it belived people may find her voice cloying.
Do you know if she has done many live performances? From what I can gather she did some stuff to promote her debut album which Q described as 'famously static'. But I don't know much else. It seems that she's a very private person and so lets her records express herself.
Cheers.
