Review

My Cherie (single) Easton previews her forthcoming album with a swinging ballad that sways with lush, retro-R&B rhythms. Easton sounds as good as ever. Producer Denny Diante surrounds her with brassy horns and swirling background vocals. In all, a solid contender for Top 40, AC and urban level play. Billboard Magazine, Week ending February 25, 1995.
