Reception

AllMusic's William Ruhlmann noted retrospectively that with this album Bonoff "once again demonstrated her talent for plaintive romantic ballads".[1]

Personnel

gollark: Probably. I don't know how they managed it, I thought this stuff was pretty standardized by now.
gollark: Unused because *somehow* it doesn't support Linux.
gollark: I think the only laser I have is in an unused DVD player somewhere.
gollark: Okay, wrong phrasing, proverbs mean things, but actually making decisions on the basis that someone said something catchy a while ago and people repeated (and probably edited) it is silly.
gollark: It would... probably be better to just say that you have other stuff to do, and ignore random proverbs.
