I didn't know if I liked it the first time I listened, but it's grown on me really quickly. I think the melodies on this album are deceptive --- they appear simple at first, but then they get stuck in your head and you realize how well they actually work. "I Stay In Love" and "Love Story" are particularly good examples of this. I'll definitely be buying the CD when it hits the stores.

Also, "For The Record" is startlingly good. If Mariah/her record company doesn't release this as a single, they'll be making a very bad business decision. On the same topic, I don't think "Bye Bye" is an appropriate choice for a second single. It should have been "Migrate" instead at this point to build hype for the album. "Bye Bye" should have been saved for the last single.
