Critical reception
The Washington Post wrote: "Unfortunately, no visceral emotions come through the music -- the singing is too bland, the playing is too safe and the sentiments are too predictable. The result is the kind of middle-brow artsiness favored by Sting and Joe Jackson; the listener can believe that something serious is going on without actually being challenged in any way."[3]
