AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! This is one of the most frustrating albums I have ever had to endure... It lives off the reputation of a couple of songs, and frankly, is a dissapointment, and this is coming from someone who didn't have high expectations to start with!
It is a weird mixture of chilled out music, mixed with a couple of 'up-beat' tracks, mixed with fillers (Tracks just put there to make the album long enough to call and album).
She regularly overstretches herself, going for notes that she just cant hit properly, she just does not sing well enough to sing the songs she writes, a couple of her songs have excellent lyrics, but she just can't deliver them to make their full potential. Maybe she should switch to just writing songs and letting others deliver them properly.
You may think I am being harsh, well maybe I am a little... There are a few good tracks on this album, ones I would recommend to download are Put Your Records On, Till it Happens to You and Trouble Sleeping. These three tracks are worth a listen and are the only saving grace for this ablum, they managed to bump it up to a 'Poor' rating.
I have noticed that other reviews have tended to rave about her, I read one saying that she will be the next Carole King... I think it is fair to say that will not happen... She can write the same quality of songs, if she tried really hard, but she would never have the performing skills to really make a classic...
