The Nineteen Hundreds
Jake Cline- City Link Magazine
"The Nineteen Hundreds" is certainly deserving of widespread appreciation. Few songwriters, local or otherwise, look at the real world with as much delight, scrutiny, and humanity as Amanda Green and this album contains a cache of priceless, often beautifully rendered observations"
About the Artist
There is a playfulness in Amanda Green's music and indeed, in her life that is quite clear. But as the 1900's come to a close, the Miami based singer-songwriter is coming into her own as an artist and unique voice. The proof is in her second full length album, "The Nineteen Hundreds" on Y&T Music. Recorded at Miami's Criteria Recording Studios,"The Nineteen Hundreds" demonstrates Amanda's natural maturation as a songwriter,with fully realized compositions ranging from the stark chords and... read more

Unsung UN-popgirl fo the new millenium!.......2002-01-18
The variety of vocal stylings range from subtle and touching ballads like 'Glory' (which was wanted as a key song by the producers of the Versace murderer's movie of the week, but which Amanda would not let them have) to the octave scaling depths of 'Sequin'. It isn't often that you find someone who can perform their own backup vocals on an album, and keep the faith so perfectly with a live performance absent the enhancements of the studio. Musically, this is one tight production. The Nineteen Hundreds is a shining example of Amanda's mastery of the piano, keyboards and lead guitar, combined with the powerful bass of Matthew Sabatella (an up and coming musical force to be reckoned with) and perfect timing of Derek Murphy on drums.
Favorite ballads are: Heaven Held the World (her vocals touch deeply into my soul with lyrics that ring oh so true) ; Me and My Wife (with a story of the simple life, filled with the self love that so many of us long for); When Walls Come Down
Favorite rock out songs are: The Zebra Longwing (what is it anyway, had to look it up on Google) ; Silver Dollar (you talk like you won me over/ you talk and it never ends / you shine like a silver dollar/ but you're already spent); Sequin (down/ you gotta slow down/ I'm not kidding around/ you know you gotta slow down/ its hard to survive/ without living a lie/) ; Antonin (here comes her Umberto Eco side) ; Beak (put that diamond back!)
This is a must have album for any serious indie lover. If you cant stand the driveling cacophony of the stale pop that makes it to the radio, Amanda Green is waiting to show you the Nineteen Hundreds.
PS - The video for "Why Do I Have to Die", which is on her first album, is simply exquisite.
Amanda is the coolest chick in the whole world.......1999-12-06
