KentBAug 25, 2004The album is an homage to her recently demised relationship with Dweezil Zappa; it details the different emotions one goes through when a breakup occurs. I find the entire CD excellent.

[Anonymous]Aug 27, 2004Awesome stuff in a market of pathetic attempts at pop and folk. Truely inspiring and heartfelt.

On The Way It Really Is, it sounds like she is out to please longtime fans and win new converts. The former will probably be delighted, but those who've not been fans of Lisa in the past probably won't be swayed by the evidence on this CD.

Is she blazing new trails? Naw. But this sounds exactly right.
