Perfect Day is
Cascada's second album of 2007 (although
Everytime We Touch was originally released in 2006) and it sounds like she thought she had found a winning formula. The opening track and Top Ten single
"What Hurts the Most" begins as a ballad backed by an acoustic guitar for the first 40 seconds, with the only hint of the
electro-pop to come being the reverb on
Natalie Horler's vocal. But then the drum beat kicks in and indeed you have another
Cascada album after all, with
Europop electronic beats and the production of
DJ Manian and
Yanou at the fore, although
Horler's voice is never dominated by the music.
Avril Lavigne's
"Sk8er Boy" and
Pink's
"Just Like a Pill" have all their inherent anger extracted, and the
Cascada versions become pleasant tunes to dance to. As with her previous album,
Perfect Day ends with a chillout version of the first single, subtitled "
Yanou's Candlelight Mix."
