Relationships - a possible alternative titles, because that's what all the caresses. Love relationships. Broken, past, lost, who are considered wistful and melancholic. Just as blossomed that you can enjoy timeless happy and pleasurable. There are still more on this emotional range: worth considering loving child-parent relationships, packaged in a lush musical enthusiasm autobiographical and humorous-ironic oversubscribed.
Take your time - the final title and now Marshall's real intention embodying. Time is exactly what many things in life needs, especially good relations and caresses. But one of the supposedly always has too little - to approach each other, to listen to the opposite, the partners to be able to at all and understand. Ultimately, in order to find himself. Herein like Marshall's personal life experiences have echoed found. Loving this life proximity allows the listener to trace own feelings and experiences individually and reflect on them - sometimes doing very different directions following as the author. Therefore, he should treat time, just to listen ... to all the quiet, gentle nuances - any relationship. The wonderful thing about these songs: Even the most melancholy thoughts lives ultimately hold a spark of optimism. Everything breathes also poetically graceful charm, the additional gains by the intensely internalized interpretation.
The consistently successful creations both through the spring Marshalls itself as well as from the cooperation with the two fellow co-producer of the album, who lives in Nashville German guitarist Thomm Jutz and the duo Marshall & Alexander for many years accompanying saxophonist Frank Lauber (album "More than Words "), as well as the Nashville country scene near songwriters / musicians Peter Cronin, Charlie Stefl and Frank Goodman.
The musical accompaniment is of restrained, marked yes hovering slightly arranged melodies. You get the content as well as Marshall's flattering soft baritone accurately opposed and permit him but, to flash different facets of his skills. In the back a minimalist occupied, often guided by a gentle guitar band sound. Every now and then spreading with a slight Bluegrass Feeling Banjo (Richard Bailey of The Steel Drivers) loosened and discreetly with brass and delicate strings orchestral beefed (orchestra conducting: for the soundtrack of "All the Pretty Horses" with the Golden Globe nominated Kristin Wilkinson) makes it for such a pleasant as unobtrusive sound.
In order to transport the touching sensitivity the best songs, the lyrics are mostly sung in German.
