More importantly, she's still got that amazing voice.

Listening to Jukebox after what...10 years?

Man, that rendition of Silver Stallion is incredible. Its sad and tired like a sunday afternoon after a long fucking week.

Chan with Lana wasn't a pairing I was expecting, but their song together is great.

When i heard this as the single i wasn't much of a fan but within context of the album its quite lovely and a strong standout.

Good to know, I heard the track by itself on Song Exploder and found it mind-numbingly dull

Three songs into the album and it is super nice

:thumbsup:

Curious to hear your thoughts by albums end.

I loved Sun and thought it was a great album needed by Chan to showcase a different side. This album is back to basics but it is quite wonderful.

It is true that "Woman" works a lot better in the context of the album, but it still doesn't do much for me. Sounds like something that would've been left off of The Greatest for not being interesting enough.

I am enjoying the bare-bones mood pieces like "In Your Face" and "Stay"

Not as good as her middle period (What Would the Community Think through The Greatest), but it's way better than her last two and the second covers album.

Pretty big fan of the new one. It's kinda subtle and a little samey in spots, but damn it's beautiful. I feel like this album really showcases her voice.

Very excited to see her for the first time in November. Wife has seen her before, 1 was a messy shitshow, 1 was transcendent. Seems like that unpredictability is gone these days, so I'm hoping for an amazing night. We got great 1st row balcony seats right over side stage right.
