Melissa Etheridge wears her heart on her sleeve and anywhere else she can think to plaster it, and in that regard, Lucky -- despite some songs that are, by her standards, upbeat and celebratory -- doesn't break the mold. Etheridge is still given to torturous overstatement -- "I am kneeling at the altar in the temple of your eyes," she cries in "Mercy" -- but she can always grab your attention. She can also rock, in the classic sense of snarling guitars and glass-shard vocals, which seems to be much of the point of Lucky. She brings such heroic intensity to her quest for fulfillment that even a phone call ("If You Want To") or a night on the town ("Come On Out Tonight") looms large. And "Tuesday Morning" isn't even about her at all. Now that's progress.
