[Bad Wolf]

I thought "Love song" was probably the best on the album. I can understand why the tracklist is the way it is -- fans voted, and I'm sure that the Power of Music performances really sold people over in wanting to hear classically rearranged versions of them in studio format. In that respect, I think the album is a success. In terms of it being engaging as a classical album, naturally it doesn't work for me: MY STORY had the benefit of being classical arrangements of (almost) that entire album, which was quite cool. This feels a little off for me, and I think it's because the tracks span her entire discography instead of just being focused on one era (again, MY STORY). Still, I think that might be the point. Going back to the Power of Music performances again, this is probably harking back to the experience of seeing her perform with an orchestra.

Speaking personally, I don't mind the album at all. I like all the songs featured (although You & Me is a bit eh) and I like listening to it in sequence. When I speak as a fan looking at her releases, I have to say this is quite forgettable.
