Overview

Life Is Sweet is the third album by American singer-songwriter Maria McKee, released in 1996. Critical reception Trouser Press wrote that the album "goes straight over the top in a bewildering styleless hodgepodge of bad production ideas, bizarre gimmicks (paraphrasing melodies and rhythm guitar sounds from Ziggy Stardust?), uneven writing and singing so mindlessly zealous in spots that McKee can’t possibly be hearing herself." The Washington Post thought that "McKee's songs are sometimes swamped by the ornate arrangements, but her wide-ranging vocals are consistently expressive." Track listing All songs by Maria McKee, except where noted "Scarlover" – 5:16 "This Perfect Dress" – 4:26 "Absolutely Barking Stars" – 4:23 "I'm Not Listening" (Bruce Brody, McKee, David Nolte) – 4:02 "Everybody" – 4:17 "Smarter" – 3:13 "What Else You Wanna Know" – 5:23 "I'm Awake" – 3:51 "Human" – 4:17 "Carried" (McKee, Nolte) – 4:42 "Life Is Sweet" – 4:06 "Afterlife" (Brody, McKee) – 2:38
