| I thought it was going to get faintly epic that one and then it did not.

| It is over. That was very nice, like someone had found a way to engrave cocoa into grooves on a 12" wide disc made of vinyl. Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.  _________________ |

| Well, it was weird mess of elements that more than hinted at a confused record label-driven drive to reinvent her as something more than a doe-eyed Reader's Digest femme fatale... It had its moments. But... Still, after all that effort and money and resources...  Still.

| That was a bit of a slog. Words like "boring" and "lacklustre" spring to mind. I like some of her early dull songs (Closest Thing to Crazy is genuinely delightful), but with this I feel she/they were trying too hard to bring her into the mainstream, and it just didn't work.
