    This album is very cringe. Just generally average lyrics with a clear artificial energy to it all. Nothing all that excited happens and her claims of "Where has all the love gone?" seem disingenuous at best.

    im sory.. this one is dull.. the songs sound the same from a 'helicopter view' of the album.. fortunately, good is good saves the lbum from being rated 1 by me.

    What I admired about Sheryl Crow is her diversity of sound and genres she has on all her records. Her politic rhetoric is comical and wellt-timed. This release, however, will leave these fans disappointed. It's a good overall record, but there is very little change throughout the album. "Lifestyles" and "Chances Are" are good tracks, bu the rest of it is just full of the same.

    It all shows Crow as smart and mature. But the giddy-kid part of her is missed. [25 Sep 2005]

    When Wildflower works, it works beautifully.

    A provocative, richly rewarding set reflecting love and life changes. [1 Oct 2005]
