Review title: Typical Sophomore C.D.
Product review: Michelle Branch's 2nd album is exactly what one would expect-- a musician required by her label to release another LP does so while she's touring the country. The point is- the foundation on which she writes these songs have nothing to do with life as we know it, but the life of a teenage vocalist who made it big. They are essentially bonus tracks of the last album, as she makes no attempts to expand or develop her style. Her first album was nearly 10 years in the making, as many lyrics and melodies were adapted from things she'd been writing since she was young. Listeners of "paper" will even sense a lack of enthusiasm from Ms. Branch herself, she trudges through her 2nd album as if she knows its only purpose is to be a place holder for the notoriously cursed sophomore slot. Save your money for her third one, or buy another copy of her first.
