Interesting read on the story that led her that way. How can a woman with this level of talent... *sigh*

Music is coming though. I am pleased.

Production and songwriting wise it's very different from the last but still suits her voice well. And her voice good god.

"Fool For You" came on and I was thinking about a parallel of if Bey could sang, because they have similar voices but Alice just knows how to work it and her range is like whooo... when she hits the high note. It's funny though because the reason Bey came to mind was I thought the lyrics were cheesy as hell and her voice was carrying it. Then I realized it was a Cee-Lo cover. LOL!!

Different from what I expected maybe, but definitely great. There's a physical cd definitely, I made sure my Local Record store had it, but there seems to be no vinyl.

I know exactly what you mean about the Beyonce similarities, I was listening to it today, and that was exactly where my mind wandered.
2788940, Good to know there's CD versions

It's funny but before this album I never made the parallel. While it definitely doesn't sound like a Bey album, production wise it's closer and makes the similarities more evident. I wonder if a Bey fan could hear it.
