Original

"The opener, "Let Me Breathe," is full of a suffocating and passionate honesty, an intimate shuffle that is part R&B, part gospel, and part confession. The same sort of open-hearted examination of mistakes, wrong turns, and attempts at redemption flows through these songs, particularly in the deep blues of "When You Were My King," the gospel-tinged ballad "Mountain," and the gentle, intimate "Standing," which closes the set out. Magness takes things upbeat here, too, particularly in the joyous, sassy strut and stomp of "I Need a Man." This is easily her best album, mostly for the heartbreaking exactness of her writing, which allows her amazing voice to live and breathe from inside her own emotional life and find its own artistry".
