Ophelia is the second studio album by American alternative rock singer-songwriter Natalie Merchant. In contrast to her debut, critics were far from positive. One of them wrote "Merchant seems only to see life's underside, making a career out of wrapping one of rock's finest voices around somber, yet sticky sweet melodies". For me that is exactly the charm of this album. It is also interesting that three songs feature female guest vocalists. My choices from the album would be the complete middle section: Frozen Charlotte, My Skin, Break Your Heart, King Of May, and Thick As Thieves, with its killer guitar solos.
