  1. With proceeds going to cancer research, Be OK is more than a stopgap recording; it cements Michaelson’s status as a conscientious musician whose chops are equaled by her worldview.
  2. A nice teaser to satiate fans between proper full-lengths.
  3. The most charming cuts are the perky title track and Michaelson's wistful, ukulele-equipped take on 'Over the Rainbow.'
  4. Arriving in 2008, Be OK furthers her Norah Jones-gone-pop approach with 11 tracks.
  5. While the title track is a bright, finger-snapping highlight, most of Michaelson's ditties are fit for kindergarten teachers.
