This one will grab your attention right out of the gate with Heartbreak and doesn't let go until the very last note of the very last song Lace you, which by the way is another great track.
JE Heartbreak is a pleasantly varied, mix of 12 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly talented musicians. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, heartbreak, pain, failed relationships and unattainable romance. They¡¯re all here.
If you¡¯re a Jagged Edge fan, or just a fan of Pop music this is a CD your collection simply should not be without.
While the entire CD is outstanding some of my favorites are track 4 - What You Tryin¡¯ To Do, track 11 - Keys To The Range, and track 12 - Lace you
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Heartbreak. Great track!
