I agree that the 1984 album was on the tame side but IMO the Christine Perfect was (apart from I'd Rather Go Blind) as Christine herself said "so wimpy"
In the Meantime does take quite a few listens and then it does start to grow on you. You find yourself singing snatches of choruses and alarming your co-workers by singing "didn't you like my love song darling?" at inappropriate moments.
This is how Christine is. I find the album very honest.
I don't know what else you wanted her to do. I think she is vocally more expressive than she's ever been.
I agree that the keyboards aren't to the forefront but then no instrument dominates.
I think she's done herself proud.
I love it.
