Query: It really is just an Afterglow...

The other two Sarah McLaughlan CD's were much different; each song on them seemed to be one that got stuck in your head. They all had wonderful, deep, original lyrics sung with an amazing voice. Afterglow is simply awful in comparison. The only song that really jumps out at you like the old ones is 'Fallen' - the rest is, plainly put, filler. Not only are the lyrics less original (dealing a lot more with the industry standards of 'love' and 'love you, but can't let go' and maybe a little more of that overdone 'love' stuff) but a lot of the vocals seem like a monotone in comparison to her other songs; and even those are overshadowed by a too-loud piano track and many useless sound effects.Maybe it grows on you after a while, but I wouldn't know. I haven't listened to it enough if that's the case. The best word to describe it would have to be overproduced.
