Such a wonderful summer record. For most of PJ's earlier releases, she reveled in self-loathing and angst, trying to find something that satisfied her. But here, you can see a lot of happiness from her finding that in a significant other, even though there's still a shroud of doubt as to whether that will last.
Back around February, I felt exactly like that, and played this album constantly. I believe it's #67 on my chart, and my favorite tracks are "Good Fortune", "One Line", and "You Said Something".
This is the perfect record to play for a date when cruising around the city.

I didn't pick this up until it had been around for almost ten years. I don't know what kept me away. I'm just glad I finally gave it a chance. It's wonderful.

Since everyone has amazing things to say about this album I just bought it... will let you know what I think. I had Dry and never really got into that, so hopefully this is different

I prefer To Bring You My Love, but this is her second best and still good.

Me, too, but that doesn't make this bad by any stretch of the word. They're both nearly perfect in different ways.
