So what is it? WHY does everyone love this > album so much? I think it's the "jump on the bandwagon" phenomenon. I really like TD, but I don't think it's a good showcase for Kate's voice. It's weird, but a good kind of weird. I think Never For Ever is Kate's best album because her voice sounds really pure and clear and, well, let's just say it's all downhill from there. Flames welcome :-)
