Now see I think ITM is her best work. Her voice sounds fantastic there and almost every song is damn good. "Friend" and "Anything is Possible" would have been monster hits if they were recorded with Mac, with perhaps only a touch or two of different arranging. "Forgiveness" happens to be one of her most satisfying songs. And she turns in an amazing performance on "Calumny," where she actually illuminates the lyrics, makes them mean something beyond an "oh, daddy, I love you baby" sort of thing.
