Ignore the actress stuff - most vanity projects are woeful. This one works - have had this CD since 2004 and this is a great track on it - I love the Eno'esque ambient twiddles that swirl and weave through it.
Needs a decent sound system to do it full justice. It's a grower.
I couldn't give a toss what her mandibles look like.
8/10

Wow, first time I've heard this - I like! Reminiscent of Dido, as others have mentioned. Good for her! Minnie is a good actress, AND a good singer - unlike many others in Hollywood who stink at both, but stay in the spotlight where ignoramuses keep consuming their crappy output. Minnie is unconventional and has class (unlike many of the haters who've commented here).

Every time I hear her now...i think of that bit they did on "Family Guy "where they are doing a film shoot with Minnie...and the camera man has to keep backing up to get her enormous head into the frame. Totally unfair...but really funny!

Not the strongest track on here, but still a good song.
