When I first read that several months ago, I was deeply hurt and offended. In The Meantime is a masterpiece and so happy she did that album. No filler, no padding, every song is wonderful. Just because an album does not sell does not mean it is bad.
I agree. I can't believe Christine really thinks the album is bad. Sometimes people put themselves down because they are shy about their success. Or they are fishing for a compliment. There are a thousand reasons (psychologically speaking) why someone might belittle their own work. I don't think this sort of false modesty is very becoming to Christine.

In the Meantime has some of the best lyrics of Christine's career. For the first time you hear her get angry and bitter in a song... in Liar.
I agree. There are some great lyrics on this album. I wish that there were a way to know which writer was responsible for which part of a song. If I am remembering correctly, "You Are" is the only song on that album that Chris wrote without a co-writer. All the other songs are co-written with others (or are entirely written by others).
