Title: painfully pretentious
Review: Ms. Barber has a beautiful voice, but apparently has little to say without first referring to a thesaurus and a Dictionary of Cultural Literacy. Quite possibly the worst effort at songwriting I've ever heard - especially considering her staggering technical ability. There is no shame in offering interesting adaptations of other artists' work - I hope she will return to doing so. Extremely disappointing.
