The album title got its title from a previous song by Loeb, "The Way It Really Is" despite that song not appearing on this album.

Reception

Although the album was not as commercially successful as its predecessors, it was very well received by some critics who noted on the mature and strong writing by Loeb,[1] with Stephen Thomas Erlewine calling it "the best, most cohesive record she's made, a clean, crisp collection of well-crafted, gentle tunes that slowly, surely work into the subconscious."[2]
