It seems the title is a reminder, but there’s paradoxical irony in having to remind yourself to be yourself. This project has Sheryl Crow taking the Long Way Back to her rock roots after that near-awful country album she released a few years ago, though it is (also) a little bit country. Rest Of Me, which could pass for an old standard, is bouncy and delightful. Most of the others are only about Halfway There.
