    An album perfectly suited to people of very little mental stability and far too much emotional hang ups. An album which leaves you in perfect company with wannabe songwriters the world over, go on.. write a song about it.

    An admirable effort, but this album is clearly geared towards middle aged, liberal, corduroy wearing Drama teachers. I'd be amazed if their's any longevity with Rice's initial offering.

    You can actually hear the moment when the album turns sour.

    Lush, impossibly mature.
