    It's ironic that soul music dominates, given Collins' lack of its most crucial element: a commanding vocal presence.
  2. The Independent on Sunday (UK)

    Throughout, we get a wounded and fragile man setting his hope-filled heart to music.

    The best moments of the album work by adding a more considered approach to material that, in the wrong hands, could sound slapdash. However, the albums least remarkable moments are plodding at best and mawkish at worst.
