Hotel Paper Reviews:
A Great Follow Up! 
2007-08-13 - Most artists falter after a really successful debut CD, but not Michelle Branch. "Holtel Paper" maintains the same pristine musicianship displayed in "The Spirit Room" She is impressive and one to be reckon with. A lot of fans who play the guitar seems to really dig her, which is probably a a compliment in itself. "Are You Happy Now" the first track pretty much sets the tone and the more you listen to this CD, the more you are amazed. There's a duet with Sheryl Crow on track#7 which I find interesting because you can't hardly hear Sheryl because they mirror each other's vocals, and ofcourse there's "Breath" Let's all hope that Michelle will keep on making cool music.
It's spectacularly & superiorly gripping compared to what I once thought. Please don't overlook this budding songwriter.

Oh and IGNORE that, "SO superior to the sophomore album" thing I said about Her first album. It was great, but the Scores never Lie...
Great Music 
2007-03-04 - I am a big Michelle Branch fan.
It never ceases to amaze me the powerful sound
that comes out of this womans vocal cords.
I enjoy listening to this and the rest of her CD`s.
My Fave 
2007-02-13 - This is my fave CD ever. If you like real music, this is it!
Bad News - Good News 
2006-11-20 - Bad news is that I wasted my time listening to this whinefest.
Good news is that I bought it used.
I give it two stars because there are two tolerable songs on the CD and she is a cutie.
More good news. I re-sold it for my purchase price.
