    Starts poorly and improves after the dreadful first three tracks. Hits the hights with "Everything Goes". Good, uncomplicated pop in places; terrible, cloying, shallow pop in others.

    The actual tunes may not be particularly strong, but crucially, at the centre of it all Natalie croons and sighs with all the clear-eyed moonfaced sweetness of Juliette Binoche baking cakes. [Dec 2001, p.116]

    One can sense that she has complete control, lyrically and musically.

    Despite Imbruglia's big, pouty voice, it's all perfectly pleasant and quickly forgotten.
