Editorial Review:
Album Description: Two years after their intoxicating debut, Bitter:Sweet returns with their much anticipated 2008 sophomore release, Drama. Aptly titled, the album takes the listener through a range of heightened emotions and sounds. The meticulous production, impeccable songwriting, and sensual vocals are present as ever on an album that polishes the signature style introduced by The Mating Game. Backed with full string ensembles and horn sections Drama embraces a more organic sound that moves Bitter:Sweet confidently into the pop realm. Equal parts flirtatious numbers, and achingly beautiful songs; Drama is playful, moving, and sure to become a classic. Quango.

The first album drew me in because of a certain likeness to Supreme Beings of Leisure, but this one is more uniquely lounge sound. "The Bomb" is absolutely impossible to drive from your head.
This album is a lot more diverse and varied, which keeps you interested start to finish. One minor complaint is the singer's need to lisp her s'es seemingly on purpose. "Sugar Mama" also sounds embarrassingly like "Don't Worry, Be Happy."
But if you can get past the emulative flaws, you'll certainly enjoy the album while driving or chilling at home.

This album is really great, it exceeded my expectations. Bittersweet is just such a genius band. I've been fan of them since their first album. This album is a must have!

Bitter:Sweet's "Drama" is a glorious electric ode to '50s era lounge music. Bitter:Sweet first made their mark when their "Dirty Laundry" was used as a promo for Ugly Betty&Grey's Anatomy. "Drama" is a worthy follow-up to "The Mating Game." it's at once jazzy,stylish,and kitschy. "Drama" is a cocktail lounge of intoxicating music.
Shana Halligan&Kiran Shahani,who found each other over the Internet,are an electrifying pairing. The joyous "Get what I want" was recently used on NBC's "Sex and the City" spin-off "Lipstick Jungle." "The Bomb" has Shana purring sexily. "Drama" and "Everything" are more thoughtful,reflective,indeed,bittersweet. "Waking Up" is trance-y trip-hop. "Sugar Mama" is a comical song,with whistling that makes it ... Read More:

This album (along with the first release by Bitter:Sweet "The Mating Game") make me want to host a dinner party complete with candles & martinis! I cannot get enough of this album -- it has been in non-stop play since we purchased it! If you liked the first album, you will enjoy this one, too. It's the perfect mix of lounge meets electronica with the track "Trouble" being a James Bond-esque favorite!

Bught this album on an Amazon recommendation. Unfortunately this was one of the rare "misses". The album itself is pleasant enough but more suited to background noise than my normal choice of music. So, in my opinion, not really stiring or exciting but you should really check it out yourself - "one mans meat" as they say ! lol
