Elfin, big-voiced and bambi-eyed, her debut album went triple-platinum in her home country within a year of release. Her sound is otherworldly, edgy and unique--from the acoustic minimalism of the title track, to the passionate feedback of \"Hey\", to the icy, insist \"Swim\", a melancholy Björkish ballad with a kick. Though her lyrics occasionally drift into cliché (of the \"I fall into an ocean of you\" variety), there are some wonderful moments, as in the self-deprecating simplicity of \"Without You\", with its slowly delivered line, \"To occupy my time's my \/ Only wish... \/ I've rearranged the magnets \/ On my fridge.\" --Lucy O'Brien\n\n Product description\n \nDrive veers ... between delicately sung acoustic dreaminess and edgy-but-not-angry guitar pop. -- Entertainment WeeklyNice and mellow on the surface, Runga's best tunes suggest the tensions hat underpin many relationships.... -- People\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 074646892725\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0074646892725\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e AManPro-0023048\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IDshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43709121134851,"sku":"I1-KQZD-H3DF","price":5.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/41wVehINt9L.jpg?v=1675349254","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/en\/products\/drive-4","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
