2001年,Michelle Branch发行了加入Maverick公司后的第一张正式专辑《The Spirit Room》,并获得好评。其中《Everywhere》和《All You Wanted》成为热门单曲。
2003年7月,Michelle Branch发行个人第二张专辑《Hotel Paper》。
作为当今乐坛比较流行的少女摇滚的代表人物之一,Michelle Branch在摇滚歌坛始终保持着自己的风格。Michelle Branch自弹自唱的摇滚曲风,和舒缓的流行元素结合的自然而又不落俗套
蜜雪儿试图打破一片歌手迷思 能写能唱的才女蜜雪儿(Michelle Branch)试图以她即将在六月底推出的新 专辑“Hotel Paper”证明她绝对不是一般发了一张专辑马上就挂的泡泡糖青少年 偶像。
这位现年只有23岁的歌手对于有些人认为她太年轻所以作品不够成熟的说法 感到相当不以为然,因为她认为虽然年轻,但她的创作成熟度不容小觑:“我希 望大家先听了我的作品再做评论,很多歌手都是很年轻的时候就展露才华了,像 乔治哈里逊(George Harrison)加入披头四的时候才17岁,U2和滚石(The Rolling Stones)合唱团开始被注意的时候也跟我现在差不多年纪...年纪不代表 什么,跟你的才华没有直接关系。”
蜜雪儿的确以行动证明了她的论点,最近才与老牌团体山塔那(Santana)以 及葛莱美奖得主雪瑞儿可洛(Sheryl Crow)合作巡回演出的她从与这些前辈的共 事中汲取了不少经验,这些经验促使她的创作更形成熟,这样的成长痕迹在新专 辑里俯拾皆是。蜜雪儿相信她自己的能力,也相信听众的耳朵是聪明的,她不想让别人的看法对她的创作形成压力。
过度包装的偶像到处都是,连摇滚团都会摆出酷劲姿态,母亲有着荷兰、印尼、法国血统,父亲是爱尔兰人,18岁的Michelle Branch只想抱着吉他率真的摇滚;幼年梦想登上百老汇舞台的她,在亲临New Kids On The Block演唱会上歌手与乐迷间疯狂的互动后加深她对歌唱的憧憬;14岁的生日礼物—吉他让她可以将诗词与旋律创作结合在一起,在60年代的Beatles、Led Zeppelin、Jimi Hendrix、Queen、Mamas & Papas到90年代的Lisa Loeb、Sheryl Crow、Silverchair的听觉洗礼下,经年埋首创作,99年透过滚石杂志网站发表的单曲跃登冠亚军,「恋爱世代」(Dawson\'s Creek)制作班底制作的影集「Wasteland」也选用她四首歌曲,2000年独立发行的专辑「Broken Bracelet」逐步累积创作的轨迹。

All You Wanted
https://cdn1-20.projectplaylist.com/e1/static10/349/1595767.mp3
I wanted to be like you
I wanted everything
So I tried to be like you
And I got swept away
I didn’t know that it was so cold
And you needed someone to show you the way
So I took your hand and we figured out
That when the tide comes I’d take you away
(Chorus)
If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cares
I’m sinking slowly
So hurry hold me
Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you’re gone
(Chorus)
All you wanted was somebody who cares
If you need me you know I’ll be there
Oh, yeah
(Chorus)
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you’re gone

Are You Happy Now?

Now, don't just walk away
Pretending everything's ok
And you don't care about me
And I know there's just no use
When all your lies become your truth and I don't care... yeah, yeah, yeah
Could you look me in the eye
And tell me that you're happy now, ohhh, ohhh
Would you tell it to my face or have I been erased,
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?
You took all there was to take,
And left me with an empty plate
And you don't care about it, yeah.
And I have given up this game
I'm leaving you with all the blame cause I don't care, yeah, yeah yeah,
Could you look me in the eye?
And tell me that you're happy now, oohh oohhh
Would you tell it to my face or have I been erased,
Are you happy now? Ohhh, ohhhh
Are you happy now?
Do you have everything you want?
You could never give something you aint got
You can't run away from yourself
Could you look me in the eye?
and tell me that you`re happy now, oohh oohhh
come on tell it to my face or have i been erased,
are you happy now? Ohhh, ohhhh
are you happy now?
Would you look me in the eye?
Could you look me in the eye?
I've had that all I can take
And I'm about to break
Cause I'm happy now, ohhh, ohhh
Are you happy now?

The Game of Love
https://www.math.fsu.edu/~trogers/data/music/The_Game_Of_Love.mp3
Tell me just what you want me to be
One kiss and boom you're the only one for me
So please tell me why don't you come around no more
Cause right now I'm crying outside the door of your candy store
It just takes a little bit of this
A little bit of that
It started with a kiss
Now we're up to bat
A little bit of laughs
A little bit of pain
I'm telling you, my babe
It's all in the game of love
This, whatever you make it to be
Sunshine set on this cold lonely sea
So please baby try and use me for what I'm good for
It ain't sayin' goodbye that's knocking down the door of your candy store
It's all in this game of love
You roll me
Control me
Console me
Please hold me
You guide me
Divide me
Into what...
Make me feel good, yeah
So please tell me why don't you come around no more
Cause right now I'm dying outside the door of your loving store
It's all in this game of love
It's all in the game of love
Yeah, in the game of love
Roll me
Control me
Please hold me
(make me feel good, yeah)
