***Cinderellen*** is the 2001 debut solo album by [Canadian](/source/Canadians) [recording artist](/source/Recording_artist) [Ellen Reid](/source/Ellen_Reid).

## Reception

The album received fairly positive reviews. [Allmusic](/source/Allmusic) writer Jason MacNeil gave the album 3 out of 5 stars and states that the "softer, gentler vocal half of [Crash Test Dummies](/source/Crash_Test_Dummies) has produced an interesting and evolving solo collection ranging from the quasi-industrialized synthesizer on "Make You Mine" to a world music feeling on "Everything," with its electronic layers in the vein of [Depeche Mode](/source/Depeche_Mode) and its *[Exciter](/source/Exciter_(Depeche_Mode_album))* album." However, he also notes that "a slight annoyance is how the album seems segmented, with songs in the same style running in consecutive order instead of being mixed".[1] Darryl Sterdan of the [Winnipeg Sun](/source/Winnipeg_Sun) states that "Cinderellen turns out to be kind of a surprise party. Instead of making the sort of album you'd expect -- one that sounds like her old band -- Ellen recorded all sorts of tunes that remind you of all sorts of people." However, he also makes a criticism in that there are too many ballads during the latter half of the album.[2]
