E.G. DailyWild Child Release Date 1985 Label A&M Rating: ![]() E.G. Daily is a perfect example of an artist whose biggest hit is not representative of her overall output. When people think of Daily, they think of her 1986 single &"Say It, Say It" -- a very Madonna-ish R&B/pop gem. It isn't surprising that &"Say It, Say It" is as Madonna-ish as it is; the song was produced by Jellybean Benitez (who is known for his work with the Material Girl), and it was co-written by Stephen Bray (another person with a strong Madonna connection). But anyone who heard Daily's debut album, Wild Child, learned that most of the songs are neither urban contemporary nor dance-pop; overall, Wild Child is a pop/rock album. The LP's most dance-oriented tracks are &"Say It, Say It" and an inspired cover of Donna Summer's 1979 classic &"Sunset People," which has a strong Euro-dance flavor. Daily updates the tune, making it relevant to the hi-NRG scene of 1986. But the rest of the tracks are straight-up pop/rock; that is true whether Daily's producer is Harold Faltermeyer on &"Love in the Shadows" and &"Is Anybody Home?" or Keith Forsey on &"Waiting." In the 1980s, Faltermeyer was no stranger to dance-pop -- in fact, he produced Daily's &"Sunset People" remake. But &"Love in the Shadows" and &"Is Anybody Home?" are fine examples of what he can do as a pop/rock producer. It should be noted that &"Say It, Say It" is the only song on Wild Child that Benitez produced; although Daily was a big fan of dance-pop, she didn't want to be labeled a dance diva. And those who heard everything on Wild Child realized that urban and dance-pop only account for about 20 of this promising debut. Alex Henderson, Rovi |
