  • Easily Tikaram's most polished album to date. As usual, several of the songs sound like rough drafts, but for the first time since the raw poetry of her debut, Ancient Heart, Tikaram has come up with enough knockout numbers to justify the record's release. "I Might Be Crying" features an inventive arrangement in which a full string and brass orchestra merely underscores a sweeping landscape of vocal harmonies. "Yodelling Song" is a fresh, manic jam with acoustic guitars, fiddles, bongos and yodellers. Tikaram's eccentric folk-pop has always been creatively produced, but for this record the husky-voiced songwriter has penned some melodies well worth the studio time. ~ Darryl Cater
Professional Reviews
NME (Magazine) (2/11/95, p.41) - 7 - Very Good - "...jarring strangeness....There isn't a single conventional arrangement in sight....Tanita [comes] out of it looking like someone who's worthy of sharing lunch with Tori, Bjork or Kate Bush..."
