A Great Album, Every Song, January 4, 2002
I originally purchased this album due to one song, "I'd Die Without You". Very rarely have I been rewarded with as great an album as this one.
It starts with a short intro, apparently from an actual psychic reading Prince Be had done, and transitions nicely into the second track. From that point on, you're treated to a great variety of music, blending funk, R&B, and a little rap even, to a wonderful musical sound that varies from the slow ballads of "I'd Die Without You" and "More Than Likely", to some more bass-heavy, yet not overpowering songs.
They even covered The Beatles' "Norwegian Wood", and it sounds just as magical as the rest of the album.
There were times in college, dealing with some negative situations, that I would use this CD and it's uplifting feelings and sounds to cheer up my mood, and it worked flawlessly - any time I felt bad, simply playing this album would make me feel better.
It may be a little dated now, but anyone who likes P.M. Dawn would be nuts to be without this wonderful musical selection.

A purely listenable CD from start to finish, May 22, 2002
To put it quite plainly, this CD is great. As other reviews on this site have pointed out, the music on this disc runs the gamut from hard to mellow. What makes this CD so wonderful is that regardless of whether your tastes lean to the hard or mellow side, the entire package has such a smooth flow that you can't help but be drawn into the music.
It's difficult to place this disc into a given category, except for perhaps "Excellent", and therefore I recommend it to everyone, regardless of what sort of music you enjoy listening to. This is the sort of CD that might unexpectedly broaden the limits of your musical taste; I know it did just that for me.

Surprised!, March 22, 2000
I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this CD. Samples or not, I like the way they blend everything together. Some of my favorite's are: "When Midnight Sighs"-Hard to describe, a lot going on, groovy, bass heavy. "About Nothing(For the Love of Destiny)" is another bass heavy up tempo song that is dope. "More than Likely" and "To Love You More" are beautiful ballads with soothing sampled guitar riffs and piano. Cool lyrics too. I liked the George Michael sampled "Looking Through Patient Eyes"(I remember the first time I heard that song was at a cafe in Venice, Italy in '93. I thought it was a remix of "Father Figure" until I recognized the voice), and also "I Would Die Without You," which will forever remind me of a certain someone... I was happy overall with this, give it a whirl. ...And smile! ;)
