5.0 out of 5 stars Just when I was about to give up on new music..., June 19, 2004

this cd is absolutely wonderful. you have a true gift. a sense of music and lyric that creates synergy. not common nowadays. it will sit comfortably and rightfully in my collection next to kate bush, tori amos, sarah mclachlan and sheryl crow, and it will not pale in the least by comparison. it was magic from the first time i heard it. i'm going to play the hell out of it. you should be forever proud of this project.

Bringing on the groove-mood and winding down the tension. Wow, I really didn't know what to expect from the cover of this cd, but the sultry body-swaying rhythm and lyrics were like a glass of smooth wine to my soul. If you haven't checked this out already you should. One of my favorites is "Open Wider."

Wow. I love this cd. How does she do it? She's a regular on The West Wing (as Toby's heartbreaker ex-wife) and she's writing these amazing songs in her spare time? This album is a powerful collection of lyrics delivered by a fabulous sultry voice. The music is rich and haunting throughout. This cd has just the right balance between attentive production and raw performance. I especially like 'Open Wider' for it's honest, powerful lyrics and 'Have no fear' for it's pure vocal interpretation. I loved this cd so much I just didn't want it to end, just like when I'm reading a great book that I hate to put down. Buy it and you won't be sorry!
