    When Human Again ditches the feel-good stuff and goes straight into drama-queen territory, though, it feels like we're finally getting to watch Michaelson come to grips with her broken heart, realizing that the only way to make things better is to fix the damn thing herself.

Mixing orchestra and pop in the most sentimental feeling produces a lot of head-banging yet emotional tracks. All the best tracks are saved for the last. 'Human Again' will make you realize your flaws are just part of being human. Collapse
