"Personally I reckon Chemical Beats is the only duff track on the album. There is no better soundtrack for staggering home at 4/5am after leaving a club than One Too Many Mornings. This album has aged really well - hard to believe it's nearly 20 years old. Where did that time go?" Reply

"Amazing voice. I don't really think this album has any business having any songs over 10 minutes, much less two, as I think the brevity of songs that are typical in this style are what make them work so well. Great nonetheless." Reply

"This is a perfectly okay album, but Olsen has lost any x-factor I thought she once had. I'd rather listen to 70s country classics than this project – because that's literally what this album is emulating, just with gay themes and ill-fittingly clean production. Olsen is able to make the genre shi..." [+] Reply

"This album is mentioned as a prime example of "What Rudy Van Gelder Did 'Wrong'" in an article under that title at the Reverb com site, which is a gear trading site all musicians go to. I recommend doing a search for that title and checking out the article for a brief but excellent discussion of ..." [+] Reply
"Best album in its genre. The genre being the synthpop revival of the ‘00s, which was without doubt the most important genre of that decade. The Madonna generation had matured and started making their own music. There was tough competition: Kylie Minogue, Beyonce, Gwen Stefani, Madonna herself. Bu..." [+] Reply

"I enjoyed listening to it but despite all compliments like consistency, bravery of shifting music style or mellow songs, the conclusive point is that there isn't any big deal about the album." Reply
