    It's something interesting to listen to, but not memorable, the production in here seems to be lost in contrast with Faith's vocals; lyrically, its a whole circus and that is not bad, but from the beginning you already know what is it about, like... You came here for fun and nothing else, we need more emotional pieces to the puzzle.

    The overall mood of the album feels a bit broken and battered, but comes off too polished to let that feeling drive home.

    This time the Mickie Most-omatic (phasers set to Winehouse) has dredged up someone so inauthentic she makes Duffy look like Johnny Cash.

    Faith takes every single ounce of her experiences and infuses them into her music. It results in one hell of a theatrical roller-coaster ride that holds attention from beginning to end.
