Reception
Michael G. Nastos reviewed the album for AllMusic and wrote that "...Kent here fancies herself as a modern-day Edith Piaf, with a very low-key, late-night, romantic approach. Her thin, wispy voice rides very much under the radar of these selections...Harvey's pristine piano is the telling factor on how this music inspires Kent to dig deep into her soul without pulling in demons or being extroverted. ...it is heartfelt and purely soulful no matter the lyrics or language."[1]
