Can’t believe this classic will be 20 years this year! I would have loved a couple of more singles from this album.

It's a solid album. Also, it showcases some of her best work.

My favorite cuts outside of the singles are "Heartburn" (co-produced by Timbaland)", "Dragon Days", "Slow Down" and "So Simple".
