Rating: 3.75/5Ĩ - Sitting on the Job - The live acoustic feel here is great! And she sings the heck out of it, with fire and conviction! This song is great. Lyrically, it's not masterpiece, but it somehow makes you smile (probably because this is how I treat a woman in a relationship). This song has a real 70s vibe to it, and it works for it. Rating: 3/5ħ - Daydreaming - Another head bopper, and a strong one at that. It was so reminiscent of Ciara (vocally-you can really tell the producer made her sing it the way she did) and lyrically akin to something that should have been on Monica's new CD. Rating: 5/5Ħ - Can't Get Enough - Everything about this song is beneath her-the lyrics, the instrumentation, the vocal interpretation.

Rating: 2.75/5ĥ - Me - Okay, anyone who knows me knows that I'm a ballad guy, and this is an amazing ballad! The vocals are clear, pristine, and heartfelt! Everything about this song is right-the instrumentation, the vocals, the lyrics, the background vocals. In fact, you can take the following tracks, put them in a blender and get this song (songs listed in order of importance): 'Everytime the Beat Drop' (Monica), 'You Don't Know' (Kierra 'KiKi' Sheard), 'If I Told You That' (Whitney), and 'The Boy Is Mine' (Brandy and Monica) and viola you have this track. Did I say she sang the heck out of it? Rating: 4.75/5Ĥ- Too Grown For That - Your typical Darkchild track. The little rap 'overture' is unnecessary and hinders what could have been an overall perfect track-it's a speed bump, if you will. It's a nice head bopping groove, with a great vocal and lyric. Rating: 3.75/5ģ - Almost - This is the answer to 'Stranger In My House' in every way. It's so candid, real, and cute, especially when she asks Tamia to sing, 'Pop Quiz from 2005' (aka 'Stranger In My House'). UPDATE: Okay, I just changed my rating and got sold on the last part of the track! She brings in her daughter and she and her child sing. Lyrically, this is not the best, but then again, they're not altogether bad or contrived-it's a typical Darkchild track.

The vocals on this song are excellent however, they get lost upon the instrumentation. Rating: 3.5/5Ģ - Happy - There's something very Brandy about this track, but she does much more with this track than Brandy could ever dream to do. It's mellow but it works! This girl can take a dull, nothing special lyric and song and make it magic. 1- The Way I Love You - What a way to open the album-a killer track.
