I've come to a conclusion that I like this album than her first. I cannot stop listening to this. Keep On Lying, Tough Love, Midnight Caller, Want Your Feeling, etc. Everything's so perfect.
Say You Love Me has grown on me so much since first hearing it. I couldn't take it off repeat today It's one of my very favorite songs on the album along with Want Your Feeling & Champagne Kisses.
Part of the reason Blanco and Two Inch Punch work under the name BenZel — and pretended for a long time that the project was actually a group of Japanese school girls — was to put some distance between the duo’s work and Blanco’s Top 40 success. “Everyone was like, ‘She’s trying to crack America! She’s going to have a big ol’ hit!’” Ware laughs. “Benny was never that for me. He knows what kind of artist I am.”
Still, Ware says she and Blanco fought often in the studio about the direction of the new songs. She balked whenever the material veered too far into pop territory; Blanco told her to “f-ck off” and pushed her to stop hiding in her own songs. Listening to the album, it’s clear Blanco’s influence rubbed off — and that Ware is still adjusting to the change.
“I think what Benny wanted was for more people to hear me, and if that meant having more of a direct chorus, then so bloody be it!” she says. “I don’t feel like a pop star.” With Tough Love, she may not have a choice for much longer.
So many reviewers saying Kind of is the highlight and then some saying it's the worst song on the album. Same with Say You Love Me. The critics are really divided on this album. I still think it's on par with Devotion.
She's gonna be on Late Night w/ Seth Meyers on Wednesday.
edit: Oh **** she's gonna be on the Today Show tomorrow (b/w 9am and 10am) (performing Say You Love Me)
I can't believe they got her some solid US performance slots.

I hope she performs Say You Love Me because that looks and sounds like it could be a legitimate hit here in the states!
