Track 5 is stuck in heavy rotation! I love this woman and all over her sultry soulfuness. I have always been a devotee to her artistry. As soon as I hit the megamillions, she is my personal muse!

Lalah has a captivating voice with deep undertones. I have had this CD on heavy rotation for the last month. It's about love spirituality and self awakenings. It's fantastic music at it's best. Thanks Lalah for this warm and insightful CD.

This is REAL music from a phenomenal source of TRUE talent. I have this CD in my car and CANNOT stop playing it. The production is lush, amazing, something you can ride up the coast to. And Lalah's voice, as always, is like BUTTER. I recommend this CD to all who possess eclectic yet refined and adult tastes and who like to surround themselves in the finer accountrements in music. I can't wait for her next album.


5 out of 5 stars Lalah, we hear and love you! Excellent music to vibe too!   September 9, 2008

This is quite possibly the best album from Hathaway (counting even her collaboration with Sample). If you're in the mood for a Sade-type CD - consistent, smooth, nuanced and worthy of repeated listening, it doesn't get much better than this. My only reservation would be the CD artwork - it's as unexceptional as the album is sophisticated. This impeccable CD deserves a classier look.
