I hope the album will be as solid. My only concern is that she co wrote all the songs. I hope her collaborators reigned in any tendency to write Secrets of a Sparrow type lyrics.

And being real here, this could be her last album. HOpefully this will be a good one to go out on. Last song title, Come Together, is intriguing. Given that she exited The Supremes with "Someday We'll Be Together" and the last song on the new album is called "Come Together" I can't help but wonder if she's making a statement about the importance of togetherness.
It is unlikely to be her final album unless fate steps in of course. I am told there are already plans for a follow up album, but of course we must not look too far ahead. Let us take one day at a time.
