Allmusic	^[1]

Allmusic editor Andrew Hamilton found that Bryson "still exudes a highbrow persona on this late-'90s CD, excelling on "Did You Ever Know," "Ain't Nobody" (the old Rufus song), the umpteenth rendition of Leon Russell's "A Song for You," "The Gift" (a duet with Roberta Flack), and "Light the World," with Deborah Gibson. Pure Peabo, but it carbons previous albums and is only essential to a completist."^[1]
