Chart Watch: Kenny G

It's been a while since I've done one of these so I thought I'd make up for it with something completely ridiculous. For those of you who are new to this blog, you'll find a complete explanation about what you are about to read here. Otherwise, please enjoy one of the dumbest things I've ever read in my life. By the way, the previous owner of this book circled this particular entry, as if to say "yes, I am intrigued about the potential dangers this artist might present to my children." I also would like to preemptively point out that "ultramellow" is not a word.

Title: Breathless (1992)
Label: Arista
Genre: Jazz/Adult contemporary

Pro-Social Content: Only two songs on this mostly instrumental album contain lyrics. Both are romantic ballads, sung by soul artists Peabo Bryson ("By the Time This Night Is Over") and Aaron Neville ("Even If My Heart Would Break"). Neville's tune pledges a deep and everlasting love despite circumstances.

Objectionable Content: Bryson, on the other hand, hopes that "two lovers... will be together in the morning" without explaining whether or not they're married.

Summary/Advisory: Virtuoso saxophonist Kenny G's first album in four years features ultramellow instrumental sounds. A light collection of romantic mood music that is sure to be enjoyed by a wide audience—including some teens.

Holy shit.
