Truth is now perhaps one of my favorite songs ever. It's definitely my favorite from her now. Fallin' was also great! Beyond Myself was good too... but I didn't like Shiny Days or Smile and Turn Away.

Truth and Fallin' should have PVs .

did anyone else hear "free ballin'" during "Fallin'?" I had to look at the lyrics to make sure that's not what she was saying, haha.

I hope there'll be future singles from her in the same style as Truth! Then we'd get a PV~ oh, though, I hope this album sells well enough so that she can get better PVs o________o *remembers Winter Gold and shudders*

I'm totally new to Stephanie and I've just finished listening to her album, and I must say I'm really impressed. It was a really nice album, My favourites have to be Truth, Fallin' and Life. She has a really nice voice.

BTW I love how they placed because of you in the album~! It sounds to me like it has a bit of a "goodbye-and-thank-you" feeling to it that makes it cool that it's the last song. To me at least XD
Oh yeah Fallin' is definitely one of the highlights of the album

I think the problem with Shiny Days! is the introduction. It sounds very cheesy, but once you reach the chorus it gets better.

I kept trying to think of what song Beyond Myself reminded me of, and I realized that the first part of the verse sounds almost like the verse in Christina Aguilera's Genie in a Bottle.

She definitely deserves a bunch of sales. This album was AMAZING. It's the first album to impress me for a while now. This was a great debut and I hope that Japan isn't judging an album by it's cover.

Hmmm...the album is a bit bland, but her voice isn't as bad through most of the songs, so I'm liking the album more.
