Customer Reviews Summary

Well, here's an admission. I had heard the first album, all teen twangy C&W - ish music when she was sixteen. It was nice, throwaway stuff and I thought no more about her! Since then, I had thought that she was an absolute beauty to look at, but her music just didn't appeal.I knew about her songs, her collaborations but really didn't notice anything until I looked at the sticker which said "EXPLICIT CONTENT" and I thought ... hmm. Has she sold out and gone down the road of almost everyone else and started singing dirty?Well, to be honest, she uses two four-letter words a couple of times on a couple of tracks each, but she's no Joni Mitchell, who has always expressed herself in similar ways. However, it did pique my interest, so I took a listen to this.OK, I am a convert based on this album. Those of you who want her to sound the same every album should realise that she is still evolving even if she has now released eight albums. One thing I like is that it is so different from other albums - yes, I've been catching up. This is unlike 'Lover', the previous album which I also bought - and, incidentally, I like very much.Not a bad track on this album, sultry, sincere, serious, great singing, very folky but with a modern twist. Others have suggested this is her 'reference point' album (my words) similar to Joni's "Blue" album or "OK Computer". Perhaps, for me, it's more like Joni's "For the Roses" or "Court and Spark", landmark albums ("Blue" was too early in Joni's career). I agree simply because this is such a change to the cheerful, poppy material previously released - more subtle, more adult, more articulate, more reflective.YES, I am a convert and need to go back through her catalogue (I can't believe I've just written that.... ). I have 1989 and Reputation to listen to, but this is pretty wonderful.In fact, this is MAGNIFICENT!!!
