The record's last song, Cardiac Arrest, is a kick, a stops-out rocker that dares to be a little goofy, that cuts the listener a little welcome slack. Even here, though, Snow is laughing at the expense of a mangled heart. The women Snow sings about put themselves at perpetual high risk. I'm Your Girl, the record's midpoint and one of its high points, sounds at first like another...
