I liked You Are Free alot but rarely listen to it anymore. All of her music kind of wears off after a couple of months for me.

yep, what he said. For some reason my girlfriend bought me her entire back catalog? Her stuff is so damn depressing I can only listen to it every so often.

depressing I agree with. Especially on the new one, "I hate myself and I want to die".

Ditto. While I like her new one, it's already starting to fade...

succinctly put. Her stuff always blows me away for a few months and then I forget it. The last 2 have had more impact on me than any of her earlier work, and the last has had more than Free, but that might be because I'm still listening to it every once in awhile.

the last two are better then her earlier stuff as far as having more than one great song.

moon pix is great for "cross bones style"
what would the community think is great for "nude as the news"
