5 out of 5 stars Built to last.......2004-06-04

I find I keep coming back to this CD over the years and enjoying it more each time. Some artist grab you for a moment and some for a lifetime. I think 'Constant Emotion' is one of those CDs I'll listen to when I'm old and grey (and hey, that's not for a *while*).

5 out of 5 stars Reflective folk-pop.......2003-06-19

Singer/songwriter MacLeod seems to thrive on subtlety on Constant Emotion, her second album. This fine sophomore effort lives up to the promise of her debut album, Trying to Get It Right, and MacLeod's writing is undeniably strong on originals that range from the haunting "Long Ride Home" to the moving "My Forsaken Love" and the sunny, sweetly optimistic "Talkin' About Good News." If you find yourself feeling jaded, pessimistic or bitter, "Talkin' About Good News" is a great song to listen to because it provides just the opposite perspective. But before you start thinking that MacLeod is incurably Pollyanna-ish, check out "Adam," a disturbing number that describes an unbalanced religious extremist who ends up in prison. Without hitting you over the head, "Adam" tells the character's story quite effectively. The only song on the CD that MacLeod didn't write or co-write is Buffy St. Marie's "The Pineywood Hills," which she interprets with appealing results. Like Trying to Get It Right, Constant Emotion will make you want more.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful folk CD.......2003-05-17

This is a really nice CD. This is a nice collection of tunes written to touch the heart and celebrate the good things. This is good folk music with no pretense of being anything else. This is a great CD to enjoy with a good cup of coffee in front of a crackling fire.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2003-04-23

MacLeod is at her best on this CD. This is probably my favorite album of hers and one of my favorite CDs period. If you like Dar Williams, Jewel, Lucy Kaplansky, Sarah McLachlan, or the like, you will probably find that MacLeod fit your taste.
