Editorial Reviews
Sarahi was born on November 23, 1980 in Miami, Florida to Epifanio and Sarah Suarez. She is the younger sister of Hiram and Joel, two of her biggest fans. Music has been a big part of her life since childhood, singing at home, for family, friends, and at church. It was quite obvious at an early age that she had a God given gift to sing. Not only has Sarahi progressed in her singing career, she has also become an exceptional song writer as well-having written most of the songs on her debut release entitled "FLY" (A Latin/Pop Christian CD). On this recording youll be bale to appreciate her range, emotion and the passion with which she interprets her songs. Her desire is to continue growing as a vocalist, performer, and song writer. She is definitely on the right path.
Her song writing career began at the early age of 12. Her songs are based on personal experiences and on her personal walk with the Lord. She always had a dream of recording her own CD and by faith, patience, and through hard work her dream has become a reality. Sarahi feels that if her dreams can come true, so can anyone elses. Sarahi knows that its not easy being a Christian, with all of the temptations and distractions this world has to offer, she has persevered and encourages others to do so as well.
Sarahis inspiration for singing comes from her love of God and that dream shes had for many years on recording a CD that would impact many lives in a way never done before-through her songs. As you listen to the various beats and different styles used in the CD, it is easy for one to be led to dance and worship God. Her desire for the listeners is that they would be encouraged and find hope through her songs, and if her CD helps anyone to change for the better, its all been worth the effort and time.
Family means a lot to Sarahi as well. She is so thankful that God has given her a supportive and loving family that has stood by her through the good and the bad times. They not only believed in her dream, but in the ministry that God has called her to as well.
Sarahis target audiences are the youth and young adults. She feels her songs can truly minister to everyone, but she knows that she is most affective when sharing with the youth and young adults peers. The great thing about Sarahis music is that both Christians and Non-Christians can enjoy hear her music. For the Christian a solid message is presented and for the Non-Christian, well, the music speaks for itself. As long as people can relate with the songs and see that shes not "Perfect" only perfectly forgiven, shes happy to "keep it real" for everyone. Her music brings her listeners a message of hope and that hope is found in the source of her strength, her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Throughout the last few years Sarahi has had the opportunity to sing at numerous events, places such as: local churches, youth rallies, weddings, conventions, etc... She has ministered through song to groups that range from as little as 10 to as many as a few thousand. No matter what the setting or the event, one thing is for sure, this young woman has truly been called of God to reach and impact her world through her music. Be sure to pick up her debut CD release: "FLY"
May God continue to bless you and use her greatly!
Product Description
This is Sarahi's first CD self entitled "FLY" She chose this title for her CD because there was a point in her life when she felt down and out with no hope. Just when Sarahi thought she had reached the end, God lifted her up during her time of hurt and confusion. Sarahi chose "FLY" because it represents her goal in life which is to get closer to God and soar like a buttterfly way above her problems. Her main goal for making this CD is to change lives through her music.
FLY,Sarahi

After the roaring success of Wide Open Spaces--a blend of turn-of-the-century pop and country traditionalism--what do you do for an encore? Rather than deliver more of the same, the Chicks have chosen instead to up the ante in country radio with a follow-up that's both poppier and twangier than its predecessor, and just plain better too. Some of it we've heard before: "Hello Mr. Heartache," for example, adheres pretty closely to the honky-tonk model of "Tonight the Heartache's On Me." Mostly, though, the record lights out for new territories. "Without You" is driven by an in-your-face string arrangement that's downright fierce, and the rootsy "Sin Wagon" may rock harder--and with more solos--than any mainstream country since Buck Owens held forth. That's not to say Fly's perfect. A couple of songs miss the mark, particularly "Goodbye Earl," an abusive-husband murder song that's sure to get criticized (wrongly) for being anti-male but actually fails because it can't decide if it's a moral lesson, a horror movie, or a joke. Still, even in this failure, the Chicks are bravely pushing the envelope. If they push hard enough, maybe Young Country radio will open up some wider spaces. --David CantwellCustomer Reviews:
My favorite DC CD.......2007-07-01
I have Wide Open Spaces (second favorite), Home, Top of the World and Takin' the Long Way. Fly is still my personal favorite.
Even if you're not a country music fan, this is still very entertaining.
Excellent follow up from the Chicks.......2007-06-20
Ready to Run
If I Fall - great faster number with cool scraping fiddles
Earl - a great rhythm and lyrics. Is about a woman and her friend "disposing" of a violent brute of a husband. Of course the song does not advocate premeditated murder. Get a grip. It's just a revenge fantasy
Hello Mr. Heartache - a good traditional-flavored number
Sin Wagon - fast, bluegrassy tune. Funny lyrics like "praise the Lord and pass the ammunition" and "mattress dancing"
Some Days You Gotta Dance - dancy number, like its lyrics and title
Hole in My Head - heavy, grinding instrumentation. Cool effect.

We wonder after those who saw new wonders in the world!.......2007-07-23
Still, Fly By Night keeps a great similarity with the debut album, just with certain lyrical and compositional differences, its an album were Rush still tries to fit in their own sound, possessing an obvious aspiration of hard rock, more associated with Led Zeppelin, which created some of their worst critics in their further career, but definitively its an underrated album. Fly By Night is one of Rush albums which has some of the most memorable, catchy and fresh songs (one of my personal favorites), having a songs' structure very comfortable and rythmical, which are very comprehensible and recognizable among the hard rock genre. Even then, they were noticed some progressive inclinations and more original mellodies.
Within the songs all tracks are very alike in their style; Anthem is a very famous song, my personal favorite, which possesses not a high level of complexity or ambitious composition; its the fine mellodies and stunning performance applied in the song. Beneath, Between & Behind is an enjoyable track but not too much to say about it; it doesn't possess any notable aspect. Bytor And The Snow Dog is a key song were is revealed their interest in progressive rock, apart from being the most complex track (also 9 min long) it possesses the greatest performance in the whole album. Fly By Night is the title track which is very mellodic and with soft inclinations; very enjoyable for stepping out of the hard rock pattern in the album. Making Memories is one of those typical melancholic ballads talking about life in the road as a rock band; not too much of a ballad, still I always associate Journey's song Faithfully when I hear to it. Rivendell is a song refering about a town of the same name named in J.R.R. Tolkien novel "The Hobbit". Best I Can is another famous track, a little blues-like and very different from later Rush works; one of their most original and experimental songs. In The End is the last track of the album composed by Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee, is a good track, not too much notorious but an enjoyable way to finnish hearing this great album.
Within the artists Geddy Lee's vocal hability and bass are in their best period, still being a young and potent voice. Alex Lifeson's guitar is in a great performance but I consider it to be better performed in the debut album. Neil Peart, being his first album with Rush, gives an extremely potent and fearful touch playing the drums in one of the finest ways; this is an album where he makes one of his nicest performances in his whole career, and his lyrical hability of writting is a much more literal and cultural composition, also another aspect of Rush interests in progressive rock.
The album's artwork (well, the cover) its a beautiful and atractive cover that creates a great interest among buyers; although most of Rush 70's albums possess this kind of artwork, its most notorious in their albums 2112 and Hemispheres.
In conclussion the album starts a long path onto music fame and recognizion, its the start of a classic all time lineup with strong aspirations and a bright future. I liked it very much, so enjoy!
Rush Takes A Drummer And Heads North!.......2007-07-09
Anthem - Straight up rocker with very cool lyrics. Geddy wails and the groove is laid down. Tight, short, pumping. One of the great old Rush tunes.
Best I Can - A leftover from the first Rush album? Maybe. This was written by Geddy alone. It rocks, but it misses Neil's literate touch.
Beneath, Between & Behind - A great song written by Alex and Neil. Alex throws in all the licks here. Geddy belts out the lyrics with passion.
By-Tor & The Snow Dog - The first of many multi-part songs. This is the first glimpse of things to come. This song grooves so f*cking much! An all-time Rush great.
Fly By Night - A signature Rush song of the first order. This, along with Finding My Way, In The Mood, and Working Man would remain Rush staples for a long time to come. Excellent!
Making Memories - One of the first songs I ever learned on acoustic guitar. This song is killer. Kick out the jams.
Rivendell - The soft spot on the album. The nod to Tolkein is cool but this song drags.
In The End - This is a good song but it, like Rivendell, drags. Another Geddy/Alex penned tune that could be a holdover from the first album.
Overall, as the band is adapting to the inclusion of Neil Peart very well, the Zeppelin-influenced sound would fall to the wayside for the Rush signature sound. Even though their next album would blow up in their faces, Rush would continue to grow by leaps and bounds in the following years. Fly By Night is a great stepping stone album. A definite must for old fans! Newer Rush fans might want to start a little up the line at 2112 or Permanent Waves.
Dig it!

A year after his slickly produced recording debut launched him on a meteoric course to stardom, this combo CD/DVD set chronicles Michael Buble's crowd-pleasing live performances before amphitheater-sized crowds on a triumphant national tour. The audio portion kicks off with pair of new studio recordings again reinforce the 20-something Canadian heartthrob's 1950s-something artistic tack with mixed results: "Nice 'n' Easy" has a Sinatra-faithful jazzy swing; the overproduced, somnambulistic "Can't Help Falling in Love" evokes Perry Como more than Elvis. The remainder of the audio CD is comprised mostly of live versions of songs from Buble's debut, with his takes of "My Funny Valentine," "Fever," Van Morrison's "Moondance" and "Mack the Knife" again suggesting that Buble has an ear cocked wisely towards the Bobby Darin oeuvre. But with the notable exception of three elegant live-in-studio performances culled from Sessions@AOL, the live DVD does Buble's undeniabl! y charming stage presence a great disservice. Intercut awkwardly with offstage comments by Buble and his band, the balance of that disc suffers from an MTV-inspired, cut/dissolve-every-three-seconds style that's intended to focus one's attention, but does exactly the opposite. If sudden stardom virtually guarantees that Buble's impossibly smooth, expressive voice seldom ventures very far outside the Sinatra/Darin mold here, hopefully he'll leverage that fame towards greater artistic challenges in the near future. --Jerry McCulleyAlbum Description
In 2003,Michael Buble roared from being the latest discovery of David Foster (Josh Groban ,Celine Dion )to a gold debut album (double platinum,#1 in his native Canada)and being named along with Norah Jones,Harry Connick Jr.,Diana Krall and Rod Stewart as the leaders of a new-yet-trad pop move- ment.

This is the album that, in one eagle-sized swoop, propelled Steve Miller from a well-regarded but hardly widely known psychedelic San Francisco-based bluesman to a chart-topping, hit-single-generating pop star. Capitol Records, who helped sire that transition by keeping him on the label through years of lackluster sales, celebrates the 30th anniversary of the event with this classy expanded edition. Those with surround sound systems will enjoy a stunning 5.1 mix highlighting the space-rock tendencies that so effectively offset Fly Like an Eagle's crunchier singles. Also included in the CD/DVD set is a worthy and informative half-hour interview/documentary with Miller about the making of the project and his blues background, as well as a riveting two-hour live show from October 2005 that includes most (but not all) of the songs on the album. The concert allows Miller to explore his blues, jazz, and even world music tendencies with fiddler/harpist Carlos Reyes adding gypsy/Cajun overtones to "Dance, Dance, Dance" and "Abracadabra." George Thorogood brings his gruff presence to "Your Cast Ain't Nothing but Trash," and a relatively restrained but intense Joe Satriani joins on the last third, which includes a 20-minute version of the title track. Despite its dated synths and somewhat antiquated production, the album holds up remarkably well, primarily due to its excursions into Delta blues ("Sweet Maree"), folk-pop ("Wild Mountain Honey"), and soul (a lovely cover of Sam Cooke's "You Send Me"). Three nascent versions of songs such as "Take the Money and Run" (retrofitted to the chord changes of "The Joker") appear as bonus cuts. They show how the perfectionist Miller's tinkering helped craft them into radio-friendly hits that sound as catchy today as they did in 1976. --Hal HorowitzMore from Steve Miller

Steve Miller 5.1 DVD Audio.......2007-01-04
Nicely done, all things considered.......2006-12-21
It certainly is an artifact of its time, but there is also a timelessness about the album. It's so well constructed, even synth parts that SHOULD sound dated hold up well. The simplicity of the songs and beauty of the arrangements add to the classic appeal. Also, there are no real duffers. Every song impresses in some way, and the album actually covers a lot of stylistic ground, and covers it well. At the time, I considered it perhaps too overtly "commercial" but hey, what did I know? I know I'll never purchase the 30th anniversary edition of Foreigner 4, no offense intended.
It's very nice to have the 3 bonus tracks on the CD, and the DVD has a 5.1 mix of the original 12 track album as well as a nice 30 minute documentary. As if that's not enough, it also includes a 2 hour concert filmed in 2005. The band is very good, and the renditions are spot on.
Some of the performances seem a bit flat, but it's probably hard to really get up for the 2000th performance of Rock'n'Me. The bright spots are indeed that: guest spots for Carlos Reyes, who really shines, Buffalo Norton (OK, Norton is a full-fledged band member, but he really shines on his harp solos),etc. Speaking of harp, the other kind, Reyes really opened my ears and eyes as to what can be done with the classical harp in a rock context. The other guest spots (Thorogood, Satriani) don't impress as much, but still give a boost to the proceedings. Anyway, it's nice to have a live Steve Miller concert in my library. I must add, however, that it is NOT in 5.1 surround, although your player may say that it is. My hunch is that it was recorded direct to 2-track digital, because it's absolutely stereo, even all the crowd noise is in the front speakers (and there's too much of it, IMO). Also, the 5.1 mix of the album is only in Dolby, not DTS, and is not spectacular.
That about covers it. I'm not dwelling on the negative, just mentioning it. I'm very happy to have a very good remaster of the orginal LP and happy to have the bonus tracks. The 5.1 mix may not be as great as it could be, but it's nice to have all the same, and it's really great to have ANY concert footage of Stevie, much less 2 hours of it.
Buy it and love it for what it is and what it has.

There are but two kinds of people in the world: Those captivated by Baz Luhrmann's heady, postmodernist musical romp Moulin Rouge--and everybody else. Oddly, the film's initial soundtrack release may have been the project's most traditional element, marketing a slate of pop-star contributions that gave listeners a sometimes-skewed perspective on its true musical charms. This follow-up corrects much of that oversight, offering original film versions of "Sparkling Diamonds" (the lavish, Nicole Kidman-performed medley of "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" and "Material Girl"), Jim Broadbent's and Richard Roxburgh's loopy take on "Like a Virgin," as well as the lively Offenbach "Can Can" parody "The Pitch (Spectacular Spectacular)." It also pays homage to the efforts of composer Craig Armstrong, whose quietly compelling underscore often binds the film's other far-flung musical influences together, be they stately orchestral readings of Elton John's "Your Song," a dramatic arrangement for Kidman and Ewan MacGregor's original film duet of "Come What May," or his dark, melodramatic take on Queen's "The Show Must Go On." The first Moulin Rouge soundtrack collection flaunted the film's bold, cross-genre ambitions; this one chronicles its nakedly emotional heart and soul. --Jerry McCulleyAlbum Details
Volume Two Includes the Memorable Renditions of 'like a Virgin' and 'your Song' and 'the Pitch (Spectacular Spectacular).' It also features a Mix of the Nicole Kidman Song 'one Day I'll Fly Away.'Customer Reviews:
Wow........2007-01-15
The highlights of the album are:
-Your Song (Instrumental)
-Sparkling Diamonds (original film version)
-Come What May (original film version)
-The Show Must Go On (original film version)
In my opinion, "The Show Must Go On" is the best song on this album...it was just so perfect for the ending of the movie, and I fell in love with the song. I was so disappointed that it wasn't on the first soundtrack. This song is part of what makes the second soundtrack so amazing...the song is fierce!!
If you love the movie and are a fan of the first soundtrack, then definitely, get this one. Many of the songs are versions taken straight from the movie - I recommend this with 4.5 stars...you will NOT be disappointed!
Love this CD.......2006-07-04
I gave this 5 stars even though it's about a 4.5 because they split the soundtrack over two seperate cds.
Could it get any better?.......2006-03-02
Moulin rouge tried to fill up the GAP.......2006-02-12
Baz did the smart thing, taking the audiences favorite music, a few gems from the first soundtrack such as "Come What May" and "Sparkling Diamonds" as well as a few new songs, like "Like a Virgin", "The Show Must Go On" and "The Pitch (Spectacular Spectacular)" and releasing the Original Film versions, allowing for the amazing vocal performances of the actors, including the fabulous Jim Broadbent, to be shine through. Also, released is background music "Meet Me in the Red Room", played during Christian's arrival in the elephant, marking the only non-actor/orchestral piece within the context of the CD.
One thing that this soundtrack included that I didn't expect was several orchestral pieces that were mostly used as background music throughout the film. "Your Song - Instrumental" (#1) has personally become a favorite and is constantly being repeated in the CD player. Also included is the ending credits music "Bolero" and the final piece ... known as "Ascension/Nature Boy". Also included is a remix of "One Day I'll Fly Away", and like all MR remixes, is a little tough to listen to at first but after repeat listening, it becomes music to your ears.
To all you MR diehards out there: this is a must. Not like I could stop you anyways. To others who haven't been introduced to the spectacular (spectacular) world of Moulin Rouge, this is a great introductory piece, especially side-by-side with the first soundtrack.

If you think you've heard Handel's "Ombra mai fu" (known as his "Largo") so often, and in so many different arrangements, and sung by so many different voices, that you can no longer be moved or surprised by it, think again. This CD of Handel arias, mostly from his Theodora or the cantata La Lucrezia, ends with "Ombra mai fu," and as sung by Lorraine Hunt Lieberson, it is so tender, so beautiful, so impeccably shaded, that you'll think you're hearing it for the first time. But that's only four of this disc's 67 minutes---a follow-up to Hunt Lieberson's extraordinarily successful CD of Bach cantatas. There's not a dull or disinterested moment to be heard anywhere. As the violated Lucrezia, Hunt Lieberson alternately rages against the man who raped her and turns her grief inward; the former is terrifying in its intensity, the latter makes us almost feel as if we're eavesdropping. The five arias for Irene, Theodora's friend, confidante, and the upholder of Christian beliefs are all magical prayers or statements of faith, and from Hunt Lieberson, they become real, with each word honestly conveyed and colored. The voice itself is unfailingly beautiful---warm, lush, never forced, agile when necessary---and her breath control is stunning. She is backed ideally by Harry Bicket and The Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, and the string soloists in the ensemble---the viola da gamba player, lutenist, etc.---are as gifted as she is. If you want proof that Handel was a great dramatist with a special gift for communicating emotion, all while listening to sublime sounds, this CD is a must. --Robert LevineCustomer Reviews:
A Legendary Singer........2007-03-07
If we call Ms. Bartoli a 'great' singer, then the description of 'legendary' more aptly depicts Mrs. Lieberson.
If ever a truly good artist lived, Mrs. Lieberson is one such.
The only singer that could be recalled singing in such style is Teresa Berganza; but still, they are different.
This is one of my favourite interpretators of Haendel. Having been 'treated' by those coloraturas of arias of Haendel's period by Ms. Bartoli and others, I find the singing of Lorraine Hunt Lieberson a great relief - at last, this is what Haendel would want it to be. And I equally enjoy the singing of soprano arias by Mrs. Lieberson - the timbre is warmer, but still with all the shimmer - so different from the dark mushy tones of other celebrated 'lyrical soprano' around.
Don't want to say more. Mrs. Lieberson's leaving last year is too heavy a news for me.

This is a surprisingly good CD. It's a re-release now on Jack Johnson's Brushfire label, so you know it's good. Jack even guests on the second track.
The music is very chill and laidback, but a little more uptempo than Jack Johnson. It has a little funky groove to it.
Although it does have some rather stupid lyrics at times, the music more than makes up for it. This is a really cool cd, perfect for hanging out. Recommended.

The magical triad behind Rushmore's spunky, starry-eyed soundtrack--music supervisor Randall Poster, composer Mark Mothersbaugh, and director Wes Anderson--leaps forward a decade from that beloved soundtrack's '60s gems, in the process adopting a more pensive feel for The Royal Tenenbaums' musical backdrop. It may lack the euphoric sing-along feel of, say, Creation's "Makin' Time," but the rock and folk tracks here perfectly match the film's crumbling characters and their dilapidated relationships. The Ramones' "Judy Is a Punk" is a burst of nostalgic rebellion but surely causes a sad twinge in light of Joey Ramone's untimely death in 2001; gloom-folker Nick Drake's "Fly" and Elliott Smith's excellently depressing "Needle in the Hay"--which is used to chilling effect during a wrist-slashing scene--further deepen the dark thread running through Tenenbaums. But those who prefer the sunny disposition of Rushmore will be thrilled by the calming concoctions of Mothersbaugh, who heralds the coming of a new scene with graceful woodwind/string parts ("Scrapping and Yelling") and playful sitar pieces ("Pagoda's Theme"). Throw in the Clash's squalling "Police & Thieves" and the Velvet Underground's petal-soft "Stephanie Says" and you've got another winning soundtrack from the film biz's most in-tune music lovers. Tenenbaum or not, you can go home again. --Kristy MartinCustomer Reviews:

Emitt Rhodes - Lullabye
A beautiful track played in the scence where Royal is lying in his bed sucking down a shake and reading a book when Chas say "lights out old man" and switchs off the light. One of my fav songs in the movie along side the rolling stones - she smiled sweetly. sadly both songs were omitted but still a beautiful soundtrack.

With Three Chords and the Truth, her 1997 debut album, Missouri-born Sara Evans not only wowed listeners with her superb vocal chops, but also boldly and unpretentiously staked claim to a neo-traditionalist style that suggested she'd done a lot of listening to Loretta Lynn and the late Tammy Wynette in her younger days. With Born to Fly, her third album, Evans continues her descent from the neo-traditional high ground and her move uptown. She makes it clear she's also listened quite a bit to the likes of Trisha Yearwood and Bruce Hornsby, whose "Every Little Kiss" she ably covers here. On the exuberant title tune and on fine country-pop ballads like "I Could Not Ask for More" and the lovely "Saints and Angels," Evans proves she can just as sweetly and deftly patrol the uptown territory as she can the down-home highlands, which she revisits on the steel guitar-adorned weeper "I Learned That from You." Though not every song on Born to Fly insinuates its way into listeners' imaginations like the above-mentioned gems do, this solid, ambitious 11-song collection stands as another feather in this gifted young singer's colorful musical cap. --Bob AllenCustomer Reviews:
Just too slow.......2007-07-02
Born to Fly - good tune, got big video play
Saints and Angels - slow ballad
Could Not Ask for More - ditto
I Keep Looking - has funny lyrics about a girl with a "grass is always greener" issue.
Learned that from You - slow, the singer learned disappointment from her man
Let's Dance - one of the few livlier tunes on here, good
Four Thirty - has a good beat
Every Little Kiss - Sara does a very good cover of this tune
Looking at What I've Written, the 3 stars might be kind of harsh. The tunes that are "normal" speed are quite good. It's just that the slowness of the rest of the numbers weighs the whole down. 3.5 stars is most accurate.
Sara was "Born to Fly"..........2007-04-26

If you are reading this thinking about buying this CD, do not pay attention to vulgar remarks about Sara's personal life or even exaltations of how beautiful she is (although true), you need to get this because the music is fantastic. It is stirring and uplifting, palpably infused with Sara's beauty.
If you already own other Sara CDs, you will not regret buying this one. It has brought me much joy since I bought it six or so years ago. I've listened to it more than any other Sara CD; I listen to "I Could Not Ask For More" almost every day. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Disappointing country.......2006-07-25
Not Sara's best..........2006-03-28
So far, here are my ratings for each song on a scale of one to ten:
1. Born To Fly - It seems that any song about flying is a good one. Must be a secret amongst songwriters :). Great, solid beginning. 9/10
2. Saints & Angels - Not a very memorable song. Just ok. 6/10
3. I Could Not Ask For More - It's hard to go wrong with a Diane Warren song. I knew the Edwin McCain version first. This was a good choice for Sara, it fits her well. But I think I still like the Edwin version better. 8/10
4. I Keep Looking - I forgot that I knew this song! I didn't recognize it by the title. Definitely the best song on the album. 10/10
5. I Learned That From You - Great lyrics in this one. Nice ballad. 8/10
6. Let's Dance - Mediocre song. Didn't do much for me. 5/10
7. Why Should I Care - A good "Don't know what you got til it's gone" song. 7/10
8. Four-Thirty - Just an ok song. Not bad, not great. 6/10
9. Show Me The Way To Your Heart - The weakest song on the album. Again, just ok. 5/10
10. You Don't - Another so-so song. 5.5/10
11. Every Little Kiss - A Bruce Hornsby track *yawn*. He bored me in the 80s. 5/10
So overall, this album had only a few real stand-out tracks. If you're knew to Sara's music I recommend you by either No Place That Far or Restless first.
