How about something else from this album, like maybe Whatever It Takes?

This is one of the few albums I own that I find I keep going back to. This song is actually one of my least favorites on the CD - well worth the purchase. |

Having recently joined RP, this is the first song thats compelled me to add a comment. As soon as I heard it begin, a huge smile came to me. Its just lovely.
I know it from the soundtrack to the movie "Message in a Bottle" which has some really good songs on.

In this set, this song is the first step up out of the Depressionville mode we have been in. Thank goodness. This makes me feel like getting up and acccomplishing something instead of hanging myself with the nearest sturdy belt from my clothes closet.
This also gets us away from what some people consider mellow jazz. Please let's cheer it up some!

Sorry, guys...I like it! I could see how it could pale after some repetition, though.

I bought this CD used. After a few listens, I decided that she was a "one hit wonder" and sold it back. Now that I am hearing her again (years later), I'm sorry I sold the CD.

regarding this song - man, I am so in the minority here - I find the lyrics cloying, the music awkward, and the vocal grating. I'm going to go stand in the Philistine's corner so you folks can enjoy it in peace. |

maybe it's just me, but the lyrics to this song always strike me as b*tchy.

I don't know what ya'll are talking about. I also am "no mermaid" and I really identify with this song. In fact, I never realized what a mermaid I was not until a carefully observance of the lyrical nuance of this composition. Thanks to Radioparadise and this magical creative talent, I already feel less fishy. Thanks!

Nice to see another KMTT listener out there. Of course, I have no need for that station since I've found RP (OK, it gets play time when I'm in the car). :p |
