One of The '90s Best Efforts"Saturn Girl" is still a hit waiting to happen, and this is an excellent, unusually nuanced and marvelously sung record that occupies its own unique artistic space. Cole has made a truly great album (this one), a good one ("This Fire") and a regrettable one ("Amen") but she hasn't yet made her masterpiece. So, onward!
Rural teenage insomniac's delight!Paula Cole just didn't have the voice to match the fancy production on this album, or vice versa. Her best lyrics are the more personal ("I am So Ordinary," "Bethlehem"), but even these are far to pretentious or or amateur to have any resonance combined with the pop-ballad production they are given.When Cole attempts a poignant *statement* as in "Black Boots" or "Curandisero," the results lack the originality, passion, or lyrical style to do justice to the politically-correct subject matter.
