Review

Rolling Stone (p.72) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Melissa Etheridge finds both a depth and an ease that eluded her on previous releases....She has discovered restraint, fun and the joys of pop."
Rolling Stone (p.111) - Included in Rolling Stone's "50 Top Albums of the Year 2007" -- "[T]here is a special urgency to the classy folk pop..."
Entertainment Weekly (p.106) - "[W]ith a closing clutch of passionate antiwar declarations that let her play her firebrand persona to the hilt."

Title Note

Melissa Etheridge's first full-length studio outing since her late 2004 diagnosis of breast cancer and subsequent chemotherapy, THE AWAKENING is the sound of a performer who has literally found a new lease on life. While Etheridge has never lacked passion, this set of songs is strikingly emotional, as evinced on the poppy yet poignant single "Message to Myself," which clearly references her illness and recovery. Those concerned that the raspy-voiced singer/guitarist has lost her edge, however, need not worry--"Imagine That" is an urgent track that not only rocks out, it directly takes the administration of President George W. Bush to task by relating the story of antiwar activist Cindy Sheehan. Other highlights of this dynamic and expressive collection include "The Universe Listened," a thoughtful acoustic tune, and "What Happens Tomorrow," a boisterous, gospel-tinged number. Easily one of the most engaging albums of Etheridge's impressive career, THE AWAKENING resonates with vitality and hope.
