Many songs on Learning From Falling have that vaguely edgy, vaguely happy, vaguely cutesy sound often heard piping from the speakers at Wal-Mart, and soon it becomes clear she's making the same vocal choices on song after song.
-
BlenderThe sitar flourishes ini "Splitting Atoms" are muted by Learning's adult sheen, which lands this unusual record in an awkward middle ground between Bjork and, say, Oleta Adams. [#9, p.150]
-
The album as a whole isn't quite as brilliant as it ought to be, given the ideas at play.

Q MagazineLocates her coffee-cream vocals amid glossy settings ranging from hip hop to gurgling electronica and folk. [Nov 2002, p.105]

You're left pining for more of her delicious weirdness, more sitar solos, more of her trombone playing and Swahili lyrics.
