Hold On and Wild Hearts were underwhelming to me at first but have grown on me quite a bit over the last couple of weeks.

Same.

Really, my only gripe is that the album is too short. Even if just by one song. I want more!

The chorus to "Coccoon" sounds like the chorus to "It's Gonna Be Me" by Nsync

I knew I had listened to that melody somewhere else.

I'd rather want more than think it should have ended after the third to last song like I do with some albums.

Well, sure. But when the two final tracks are the most underwhelming of the record, it sure would be nice to have a track or two more.

For sure. And to be honest, I've always though her choice of tracks to close her albums have been fantastic and this one was a bit underwhelming. But like I said, the song is growing on me so six months from now I might think this wasn't a step backwards for album closers at all.

Totally. But I think Lover's Know has the "worst" or least satisfying album closer. I think Wild Hearts is s step up.

I think, for me, the bigger bummer is the penultimate track. Those are always outstanding. And this one is decent but not the best.

Actually the last song is almost always amongst my least favorites from her albums. Wild Hearts might be even my favorite of the closers.
I also absolutely love Hold On, but it's not my favorite from the album anymore, I think.
