CD of the Month (5)
Another easy-listening CD - Secrets by Toni Braxton. A very calming influence when facing hellish traffic.
Apart from a number of rather explicit, seductive tracks, there is the classic grammatical screw-up: Un-Break My Heart. The confusion lies in the word unbroken. Anything, once broken, cannot be un-broken, it can only be repaired. Something that is unbroken, has never been broken.
Of course, Toni can claim to be at the vanguard of development of the English language. The word is intuitive - nobody has any doubt what it means, but it's wrong (gets out panda outfit, goes on a shooting spree...).
Enough of that, just listen to the music and relax.
