...some genuine love. Her vocals seem more relaxed, her guitar a bit less austere and the tunes somewhat more welcoming. On "Big Exit," Harvey meditates on human suffering, but concludes with "I'm immortal when I'm with you." Radiohead's Thom Yorke accompanies her vocals on the flowing duet "This Mess We're In," a sweetly sexual exchange. Finally, Stories ends with "We Float," possibly the most elegant ballad she has ever written. With P.J. Harvey, you never know when her happiness will give in to dissatisfaction, but you do know this album will remind...

...High is decked out in the traditional pink dress and golden stole of ancient Rome. She bursts into a third-grade classroom and greets her students: "Salvete, omnes!" (Hello, everyone!) The kids respond in kind, and soon they are studying derivatives. "How many people are in a duet?" High asks. All the kids know the answer, and when she asks how they know, a boy responds, "Because duo is 'two' in Latin." High replies, "Plaudite!" and the 14 kids erupt in applause. They learn the Latin root later, or side, and construct such English words as bilateral and quadrilateral. "Latin...

...that her new material has soul and guts. But she has more than just power in her arsenal. Throughout the CD, she also shows off her gift for melody: the sweet Orange Moon enthralls and delights, while Time's A Wastin conjures a sweet elegance. Badu's reggae-driven duet with Stephen Marley (son of Bob), In Love with You, provides a welcome romantic interlude...

...other members of the Wu have their moments. Method Man, as always, is witty ("In a room full of crackers I might cut the cheese," he says on "Redbull") and his delivery is impeccable. Even the ODB finds a way to contribute, making an appearance on "Conditioner," a duet with Snoop Dogg. Sadly, the quality of ODB's recorded voice is so bad it sounds like he phoned in his rap from prison, and pairing the explosive ODB with the smoked-out Snoop Dogg is like mixing oil and water...
