I'm playing it now on a new stereo. It's a beautiful album, one of my favourites from the past few years. I keep coming back to it and loving it more every time.

I like her tunes, though. She doesn’t lip-sync well in the videos, unless it’s the video itself. I like her tunes, though.

"For All Time" has become a favourite in our house. But her videos don't do it for me. They're too slick and dolled-up for my tastes. She had another video, which doesn't seem to be available online anymore, that had a similar look and feel that clashes with my perception of her music and personality --- or at least the personality of her music. Make-up hides personality. It doesn't accentuate it. Simplicity seems more appropriate for what I hear in the music. Her videos wouldn't attract me to her music (but I think she's great).
