Query: Man, this is bad...

Melissa ADM is certainly talented, but she doesnt come across as anything other than overrated on this bloated, self indulgent, boring shambles of a record. The songwriting is just plain dreadfiul, amateurish stuff. Her singing is pretty bad too. Hopefully, she'll keep playing with other more established musicians, and learn some more. this was a record I bought because I wondered why it stiffed so badly; but after listening to it a few times, it's pretty obvious why no one bought this album - it's really bad.
