This album had a huge influence in my music taste as a young girl. Along with other great female lead acts such as Sarah McLachlan and Jann Arden, it was a great time for this type of music. Amanda's voice is powerful, soulful, and uniquely hers. Out of the other artists that were popular in this time, I believe she voice was in the top tier!
I absolutely love this self-titled album still to this day. If you want to have all the feels with grandiose moments then I highly recommend it. Playing Let it Rain while in a rainstorm rivals no other for the ultimate soul wrenching feels.
Check out this album if you loved those anthemic anthems of the 90s!
