Title: 80% saccharine, 12% okay, 8% genius
Review: For those who like their saccharine straight up, this album poses few challenges. Rickie sings her slouchy style competently enough, serving up a a candy colored bouquet of easy listening tracks. Only three of these blossoms have any thorns -- 9, 11 and 12. Of these, 12 is a real gem of feeling and honesty leaving the cutsey crap well behind. Would an album filled with songs only like track 12 sell? Probably not, but it would be glorious.
