Always tempted to rate a song like this because of how awful it sounds while listening at work on crummy speakers.  I shouldn't, really, until I have listened to it properly on a decent sound system.  Unfortunately, I don't think I can bring myself to listen to it ever again.

i love BFL, glad RP started playing her music. "Sleep Alone" isn't one of my favorites from her though

Would be good to know how much material she has presented to her for consideration for "use".  Am hoping for more diverse pieces from BFL with her voice carrying the load.

uhm.... really don't like this one (not even the album cover - terrible!). The repetition of the refrain reminds me of the more famous "Jolene, Jolene, Jolene....", which, by the way, I thought until now it said "Jolie, Jolie, Jolie... please don't take my man..." as in the French Jolie for Pretty. At least this ugly song by BFL made me realise how I misunderstood the lyrics of Jolene...

Um - I bumped this from 7 to 8.

 
And the cats are still grinning, after having torn the house up all day. They're tucked in, a few are snoring, and the rest are taking grooming-breaks before they hit the sack. Bumping this to a 9, because the cats voted that way.

Well, I could see where someone would NOT like this. But for some people it just is the right thing at the right time. Cey-La-Vie

Or add anything that comes from Celine Dion's mouth for that matter. My cats don't go for CD. Neither do I...it doesn't get played unless there's unsupervised lame radio playing somehow...this doesn't happen often fortunately.

I think it's interesting and engaging at least, especially considering how soulless, perfunctory, and corporate much cover art (and much graphic design in general) is these days.

Everytime I hear this band, I rush to the playlist and then song comments because I get so angry at its suckiness.

I agree with what the other poster said. RP plays the best songs off the album. Not sure if RP plays Daniel though-I think Daniel's my favorite. There are a few that are absolutely stellar from the album that I have to BLAST and rock out to. However, I can't say the rest of the album is just as good. I hope they come out with new good music soon.  I'd say it's worth getting the album though.

I like Daniel and now I like this song too.

Is the CD worth buying , or are these the only two good songs?
