| Louise Goffin: Sometimes a Circle - PopMatters Music Review (911 words) |
 | The daughter of Carole King and Gerry Goffin, Louise Goffin's new release, her first in nearly 14 years, is the latest in an increasingly lengthening line of albums by children of famous musicians, and it had to be a daunting task to step out of the shadow of her illustrious parents. |
| Goffin describes her album as "a humorous look at the absurdity of modern life," which perfectly encapsulates the theme of the record. |
| Lyrically, though, Goffin is nonetheless terrific, especially on "Clicking to the Next Slide", where she scores some points singing about a found View-Master (one of the coolest toys, ever), but lyrics are only half of the song (some might argue even less), and without a melody that grabs you, you're not left with much. |
