Someone on Unfogged recommended the song Love Song, and damn if it isn’t peppy as hell, so I bought the album. Why not, right?

Bareilles sounds a little like Nellie McKay, only more mainstream, or like Fiona Apple, only more poppy, or like Vanessa Carleton, only—actually, she sounds a lot like Vanessa Carleton.

“Love Song” and “Morningside” are particularly good songs, and the whole album is, at worst, inoffensive.
