Sheryl Crow - Tuesday Night Music Club
"Strong Enough" has long been one of my 'touchstone' songs - it's one of those which I tend to listen to a lot (usually late at night) when going through one of my emotional troughs. I like "Leaving Las Vegas", in all of its mid-paced, middle-of-the-road longing, almost as much. And "All I Wanna Do" is fun, even if it's one of the most overplayed songs of the last 15 years or so. It's a shame, then, that the album on which all three of those songs reside should be so underwhelming - opener "Run, Baby, Run" is pleasantly airy, and "Can't Cry Anymore" is okay, but the rest of the record is just bland.
