Israeli-Canadian Singer/songwriter Ofir has a new music CD magnum opus called, 'The Passion' that combines techno pop dance and house and ballads music with letters to God about the Universe and where its going that will shake your booty while at the same time telling the truth about the modern world and its pop culture.

Ofir does this well in her vocal tilt and lilt (great!!) and lyrics especially the title track and Never Call me Babe and Fire Escape tellingly makes hits on the very pop culture that the album embraces musically. The tension between the lyrical content and the dance oriented artifice makes for an artistically well balanced listenable pot pouri of pop songs.

The disc recalls the late 1980' Cosmic Thing by The B52's that justaposed upbeatradio friendly dance pop with social chrism that made it so appealing and poignant at the same time

A definite thumbs up for Ofir!

Ofir’s songs are really nice, with very decent hooks, so rare, and real content, not just sequencer running. Her CD is far above many of today’s artists, Excellent!

She’s got that riveting voice, electrifying beats, that you can't easily mistake her for anyone else; Ofir is definitely a passionate vocalist who deserves a spot on the pop/dance charts.

Each of her songs unusual on its own, I have seen Ofir performing live at her CD release and I’m thrilled, Ofir is truly authentic and mesmerizing.
