    Only heard the singe, but it can't get much better (or worse for that matter.) I'm embarrassed for her, especially seeing her singing this song live on TV. The most trite crap that is being performed. (Much worse than Brittany.) I could have written a more complex song using only lyrics from Barney the Purple Dinosaur songs.

    I think this sin "BareNaked" is awesome. I think Jennifer Love Hewitt is a good singer and actor.

    Um...she should stick to acting...I'm just not feelin' her. She's trying to be like everyone else out there...and it's not working.

    Admittedly, her FM-friendly singalongs aren't rocket science, just fantastically effective. [May 2003, p.109]

    Amounts to nothing more than a party of five million bland cliches. [11 Oct 2002, p.82]

    Hewitt's problem on BareNaked, ironically, is that she lacks "it." Whatever magnetism she carries on screen, whatever eye-candy poise she possesses; it all comes off as vanilla in her music.
