There's two versions of the album up for pre-order, one with the album title all caps and one standard case. Both 16 tracks; not sure what the difference is.

She looks beautiful on the cover, but the title is bland. And so is the new song.

I want In Common too, but I won't be too mad with 15 new songs though. I wouldn't understand why she wouldn't include it as it fits the vibe of "Blended Family", imo

The new song is very interesting. I don't think it's bad, it's just a bit shocking. The guitar is beautiful and I can relate, actually.
I'm just glad we got release dates. Got my card ready

Love the album cover. Simply beautiful!
The single is cute. Love that she went back to the guitar.

The cover is beautiful. She is beautiful.
Blended Family is cute. Not great. I guess the are looking for a "hit".
Btw i saw In Common as track 17 and Hallelujah as track 18.

I wouldn't mind she put the acoustic version/lately performance version of "In Common" on the album. I honestly believe it would have been a hit if that was original version with the original being the remix. It is so beautifully sung that way, imo.

Lord knows I love Alicia and have defended her, even citing GoF as one of my favorite albums of hers (possibly my favorite altogether) but that new song? No ma'am. I am all for music being personal but WTF is that? Congrats on finally making a song that I have no desire to replay, I guess?

So she's releasing an album in a few weeks that doesn't even have her one recent "semi-hit" (Urban AC hit) on it? Bomb.

I quite like it... the lyrics could be better, though. I can see this doing better on the charts than "In Common".

I hope she does single release weekly, which we will get three songs before the official release. I believe that will help her.

Blended family is cute. I like it, but please don't tell me RCA is going to push this hard--especially over IC???!!! If urban rejected IC I cannot see urban mainstream making this a hit. Not even top 20. Shit, sensed blended family to pop. After all they are up GOF.
I hope she performs and promotes via The Voice. That will help her a lot.
