...lengthy intermission, The Cardigans began their set with a powerful rendition of "Marvel Hill," a bittersweet song about ambivalence from Gran Turismo.

Monica Mancini: On her eponymous debut album, Henry Mancini's daughter reveals a strong but sweet voice that rides a melody just so. The songs are Dad's--Moon River and others--with their mix of sophistication and schmaltz. Tart strings help keep Monica on the right side of the equation.
