5.0 out of 5 stars Second Life, 17 Nov 2007
By D. Bester (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am an ardent fan of Melissa ... been to her concerts here in the UK and in the States, and actually even feature on her Live And Alone DVD in a meet and greet session. So I know what I'm talking about when I say ... this is Melissa at her best. We are lucky to be walking her journey with her as she plays the soundtrack to her life, and ours. Or indeed, creates it. A deep sense of spirituality pervades this album, as well as a consciousness of herself, her place in the world and the change she dreams of effecting by becoming. 'Threesome', 'Imagine that' and 'Kingdom' are brave, revealing and powerful, each for very different reasons in different contexts. But tonight walking home from Oxford Street in London, I turned the volume on my iPod as loud as it goes, shoved my hands deep into my coat pockets, and let myself cry into the thin wintry air as her lyrics swept over me. Few, if any, albums have had such an effect on me. Reason indeed to do what Melissa suggests: listen to the work, from first beat to last lingering note, and hear her soul. Thanks Melissa for turning your pain into our healing through the language of rock.

5.0 out of 5 stars TIME TO WAKE UP!!!, 5 Nov 2007
By LJC (Walsall, UK) - See all my reviews
I have been a Melissa follower since the start and waited with baited breath for her new offering. I am so bowled over by this album - I rate it as her best so far (can you imagine someone who has been going this long gets better!!!). Melissa tells a wonderful story in this album of the paths her life has taken and how she has grown as a person. You may not agree with her on everything but she speaks the truth as she believes it to be and in the world we live in today with so much media and political propoganda this has to be refreshing!!! This album has a real 'rocky' feel to it. There is also a live DVD out from the Hard Rock Cafe gig, which as usual is brilliant and shows Melissa to be what she is: a fabulous writer/performer and a really caring and honest person. This CD is on constant play in my car because I can't get enough of it!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars love it or hate it, 21 Oct 2007
By Orphelia Hellebuck (Ghent, Belgium) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I think this one will either capture you from the start or will make you doubt Melissa Etheridges talent. As a fan from early on it took some getting used to this new concept, indeed a concept album. I didn't get the story at first, it took me 3 listening sessions and now I love it. I'm pretty sure this album will work for the die hard melissa fans, but probably won't win her any new ones. But hey, I'm still a fan. She'll probably stay my favorite rockstar forever!

I agree with the previous reviewer in that this might not be for all her old fans. I myself have pretty much all her other albums and found this one hard to like at first. Read more
