Where is the REAL Fantasia?

Review Score: (2/10)
Let me just start by saying that I think this is a pretty good release, especially for her first one. However, I want to know what happened to the REAL Fantasia? After watching her on every show of American Idol, I came to know the wild, in your face, almost Aretha Franklin like quality that Fantasia has. That's what I wanted more of on this CD. This CD is now going in my collection as something to play during a quiet dinner party with my parents. I wanted to hear more life, more energy, more of that Fantasia personality. I'm disappointed that this would be the release she picked to be her "coming out" CD.

Please next time, MORE LIFE, MORE FANTASIA!!!!
