Comment: As a big fan of Iona, I think I expected Personal to have a similar sound. But as the previous reviewer mentions, it doesn't. It is not, for example, what I would call progressive. Because of these expectations, it was only after listening to it several times, over several months, that I finally "got" it. Now I am quite impressed with this album. Personal is an apt title; Joanne really seems to share her struggles, hopes, and immense joys through this album. Partly as a result of that, I find it reminds me of a psalm. As the last reviewer mentioned, I agree that the lyrics are deep, but certainly not pretentious. Their meaning is clear and overt; what they are saying, however, is quite profound. Overall, I would say that this album is encouraging and uplifting. It is about communing with a sister in Christ; sharing her struggles and joys. It may take a while to "get" that, but when you do, I would say that it is quite worth it.
