I am going to buy this on iTunes later. The computer I am currently on does not have iTunes and I cannot download it - is it $9.99?

I cannot wait to buy this. I have to wait for my mom to wake up so I can use her credit card, but I'm listening to sound clips on iTunes right now.
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I?
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Amazing album. At times heartbreaking, and at other moments, hilarious. A great representation of a remarkable talent.

I love the album, especially Nobody's Crying, My Heart Was Set on You, and the random version of Oklahoma.
Oh, and I almost forgot to mention...I'm the good cop, he's the bad cop.

Ok, when I heard the air conditioner song, I feel in love.
& I really like that it's not "pop" sounding

I am completely in love with every single song on the CD. Sutton has such a talent, I'm glad she finally got to have a solo CD. "Up On The Roof" is so mellow-sounding, I could fall asleep listening to it (in a good way!) Did I hear Megan McGinnis on one of the songs towards the end of the CD singing with Sutton?

Yes. That is Megan McGinnis singing "Flight" with Sutton. One of my favorites on the cd.

Is the really a "best song"? I love em all! My fav, however, would probably be... On My Way
but rOcKs... You should buy the whole cd and decide for yourself, its really tough :)

Two of my favorites are 'Up On The Roof' and 'On My Way'
And the random 'Oklahoma', just for that last note.

I think the best song is "Nobody's Cryin". I've been listening to it all day.

After a second listen, I agree that 'Nobody's Cryin' is the best track.

I have to say, "Flight" takes the cake for me.

Here is a really awesome interview with Sutton talking about each track on the album (and a little about Shrek, too!). Its a really interesting, intimate interview.

Is anyone else surprised by how bold, brave, and heartbreaking My Heart was Set On You is? It's so sad.

Did anyone go to her Lincoln Center concert last night? It was AMAZING! Of course I can't find the song list they handed out at the end of the show...can anyone post? Thanks!

Bump. Any concert reviews? I'm dying to hear.
