This is probably the best musical album ever released. It is superb and excels expectations in almost every way.
At the time of its release it was readily derided as a poor sequel to the stunningly successful and hyped "Jagged Little Pill". However this is only a very superficial and shallow analysis. The ultimate truth is actually that this opus is far deeper and more profound than its predecessor.
It every way it is a seminal album with a breath-taking range of vocal exhibitions. Almost every song carries a power which few modern day artists are able to match. And the lyrics resonate with a strength and longevity that will have you replaying this disc literally hundreds of times.
Possibly the best hook and most irrestible track on the album is "Joining You" (single number 2). The sheer insight and vision demonstrated in the writing of this one is magnetic and captivating. An unmatched understanding of the human psyche is apparent in its twists and tones. It every vocal inflexion calling to mind a different but clearly recollected human emotion. Simply superb.
