Really? I like this cd a lot. It's probably my 3rd favorite from her. I didn't like it when it came out, but it was one that grew on me over the years. "Betcha" is my JAM!

I saw her in concert with Luther in Dallas during the "Never Let Me Go" tour. She was so sweet and friendly. Dallas didn't care for her performance (she was kind of dull). She did ALL SLOW MUSIC and nothing really up tempo. She did a few songs from this album that I remember. I vividly remember "Betcha" because she closed with it and did a HOT Latin dance routine at the end.

I found it on YT

The album that had to grow on me was Next. I was not feeling it at all along with her crazy eye make up on the cover. I thought it was going to be mostly uptempo like Happiness But it eventually I learned to appreciate it although I never play it or think about. I guess it's my least favorite of all.

Identity	The well-presented "The Comfort Zone" was her finest hour. There's really not a dull track among the 14, which is quite an achievement. Oh, she looks so edible on the cover.

I I like this cd, because I think it fit her, at this point in her career. I could not see her singing, "The Right Stuff", forever. My favorite tracks on this CD, is "Constantly", "Ellamental", and "Betcha Never".

That was hot. Never seen it before. And check out Tina Landon at the 2:50ish mark during the rap.

VW is such a solid performer. I guess the one good thing about Ugly Betty being cancelled is the chance for her to return to Broadway the way she'd like.

Since my favorite "Betcha Never" has been posted I'll add these.

She's been putting out songs for gay people. You just have to be gay and like what she's been putting out, musically (smile).
