Falls a litte short

Review Score: (8/10)
I have never really been a big fan of her music, but after listening to her second disc it kind of falls short like the first one.It starts off very slow with dry up tracks like Heartburn ,Karma and the worst Walk on by (at track she never should have touched.After that the cd really pics up. With Mellow tracks like Diary and Slow Down her true skills really shines .Overall it a pretty good cd though not one to run out and grab but USED.This cd does not break new ground for her thought.Maybe next time
