Title: what's inside is not the packaging
Review: Die-hard Tori fans will of course think they are getting an important work of music, but like Scarlett's Walk this is just another rambling set of unrelated songs packaged as a song cycle. (Tori, if you list the songs in different gardens, why didn't you put those songs together on the album?)And there are too many songs. Even Laura Nyro & Joni didn't release EVERY song they wrote, but Tori seems to think fans will want to hear every little ditty, finished or not. One bothersome quirk about Tori's songs is that many of them don't have an ending,...no conclusion. They just die.This is good background music for when you're doing other things cause there's nothing to pay attention to.
Is the review positive or negative?
