Album Notes & Community Reviews

Continuing her remarkable late-career artistic renaissance, the iconic vocalist navigates themes of alienation, addiction, and doomed romance on 'A Child's Adventure'. The album features lush, nocturnal pop-rock arrangements that frame her distinctive, world-weary vocal delivery. It stands as a sophisticated, deeply introspective companion piece to her legendary 'Broken English' comeback.
