There is probably a very good executive-level excuse why this album is a Simone Simons album. Whatever it is it has little sway over the fact that rationally this is anything but. Perhaps squinting at it proper and stripping it of all context you can then assess it as one but why keep up with the pretence? The defining characteristic of this album is exactly what it isn't.

Can really hear Arjen's sound on this one. It helps it feel like a cohesive project, unlike so many singers' bland solo albums, and gives it a sound of its own. Quite happy with this album

I too could hear the Arjen sound on this album, except that I've never been able to appreciate his songwriting, the same goes for this album. I liked some of the ideas on this though.

The choir parts provide the strongest moments for me. Not a bad album. The only track I may revisit is the opening.
