  1. See You On The Moon still occasionally veers toward the kind of generic lite-roots music that dominates rom-com soundtracks and commercials for long-distance service, but more often, Merritt tries to do a little more with what she has.
  2. This time, there are moments of eye-opening wonder.

  4. Moon is most grounded to Earth when Merrit stays in her comfort zone. [Spring 2010, p.75]
