Better known for her acting abilities in a string of hit movies (I Know What You Did Last Summer, Heartbreakers, Garfield) and the massively popular "Ghost Whisperer" one wouldn't think that Jennifer could also sing. But one must note that this singing isn't just a sudden product of the actresses popularity and to cash-in (see Hilary Duff, Lindsay Lohan). Jennifer has aspired to be a singer ever since she was a child like most great actresses did (Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler). Are you seeing the destiniction?

Vocally, Jennifer displays an array of lush, heart-felt notes that are pure ear-candy. "Cool With You" and "Don't Push The River" are pure examples of this as is the beautiful love ballad "No Ordinary Love". Also lovely is the lullaby "Love Is The Greatest Word" and the powerful "Don't Turn Your Head Away". The only real weak tracks are the hard-to-listen-to "I Want A Love I Can See" or the confusing "I Always Was Your Girl" but the songs are lost in the positive rather than the positive getting lost in the negative (see Autiobiography- Ashlee Simposn).

There are some who will say that Jennifer can't sing and that her music is "rubbish". But these people are missing the point-- this album is not suppose to be listened to whilst trying to figure out the meaning of life. To use the much used cliche; "it does exactly what it says on the tin". "Cool With You: The Platinum Collection" is ultimately disposable but like a Yorkie bar it's nice while it lasts.

I love barenaked by J-love but i wasnt sure if i would like this because i didnt know how her older stuff was well let me tell you i was more impressed with this then barenaked (even thought barenaked is one of my favorites) jenniferl ove hewiit has a nice smooth voice that flows smoothly with the music this is a feel good album im not usualy into slower stuff but jennifer love hewitt has always been an acception + there are some uptempo pieces of pop perfection in here i suggest getting this even for the 16$ import price or just get all of her albums used ether way you wont regret it her music is awesome i hope she makes a new album!

wish she had the tracks STRONGER , Difference Between Us and COULDNT FIND ANOTHER MAN on it. other than that, its a great album!! she really does hae great songs@
