Full title is "I Don't Want To Do Anything To Change". It goes for adds next week. I like it, but not as much as "I Will Not Be Broken". This is her most solid string of singles in awhile though and she's only two in.

Bonnie Raitt reaches deep into her heart for this rootsy acoustic ballad from "Souls Alike," which already has yielded triple-A hit "I Will Not Be Broken." Her bluesy voice oozes the kind of spine-tingling authenticity that was sometimes missing from her Grammy Award-winning blockbusters. Over delicate finger-picked chords, she confesses quietly, but with raw emotion, "Sleepless nights aren't so bad/I'm staying up, I'm staying sad/I don't want anything to change." The alt-country-leaning song is gorgeously stripped and shines through its minimalism. It is a poignant reflection on broken love and self-acceptance, with a far-reaching melody that will have triple-A radio at her feet again. —Sven Philipp
