Great music, great price.......2007-05-07

I ordered this cd for a book club I was hosting on the book "The Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follett. It was perfect "mood" music for the discussion and the price was unbeatable!

Definitely Meditative.......2007-03-09

The gift that these men are able to share is worth listening to. To be quiet in yourself and allow space for this soulful chanting is an experience in itself.

Gregorian Meditation.......2007-01-13

Great CD. My wife and I listen to it almost daily. We even use it for prayer sessions. Also the product was in perfect condition and and was as advertised. We're totaly satified.

Beautiful.......2007-01-13

I have bought Volumes I and II and am very pleased with the quality, the sound, and the style of the chanting. The lyrics are amazing, many of which come straight from the Bible, especially from the Book of Psalms. Let me know of other great Chant CD's, be they Gregorian, Amabrosian, or even Greek/Byzantine.

Gregorian Chant Gems.......2005-08-27

It is wonderful to hear again the chants that are familiar to all Catholics who grew up with the Latin Mass and who remember the plain chants from the Liber Usualis. Victimae paschali laudes (the Sequence from the Easter Mass), Gaudens gaudebo in Domino (Rejoicing, I shall rejoice in the Lord), Pueri hebraeorum (the beautiful entrance song to the Palm Sunday Mass), and all the other chants. They are performed by a choir that understands the beauty and simplicity of Gregorian Chant.

Sarah Brightman's career was launched by her success in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Phantom of the Opera, so it's no surprise to hear the soprano paying homage to the composer on this disc. Really a Brightman best-of, the album includes the Phantom theme (a duet with Michael Crawford), the light-opera fare of "Chanson D'enfance" from Aspects of Love, "Don't Cry for Me, Argentina" from Evita, and numerous other Lloyd Webber classics. Throughout, Brightman's diminutive voice lends a fragility to these musical theater tunes that you'll either love or despise. On Evita's "Another Suitcase, Another Hall" and Cats' "Memory," she literally chirps through the vocal lines. No matter. The growing legion of Brightman fans wouldn't have it any other way. --Jason Verlinde

Sarah Brightman sings in good form classic songs and does a great job!!

Andrew Lloyd Webber .......2007-02-12

Excellent Broadway music--a true master. Sing along or just listen. First heard her on PBS.

The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection.......2007-01-05

Sarah Brightman has always been a favorite of mine, and this CD is outstanding. The duet with Jose Carreras (Friends for Life) is especially good--worth buying the CD for that song alone.

The Best You'll See from Sarah.......2006-09-09

This CD is - wow! I have so much to say about it and so little time! This album features three pieces from "The Phantom of the Opera" - Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again, The Music of the Night, and The Phantom of the Opera theme. They're all beautiful. The second piece on the album is "Unexpected Song". It has beautiful octaves and orchastrations. Chanson d'Efance is an amazing French piece with vibrato - and then some. I forgot to mention that there is another piece from The Phantom of the Opera - All I Ask of You - except that the song is not sung by the original cast from the musical. The next few pieces are fairly decent, until you get to Memory from Cats. WOW - is it spectacular! Then we get to two other pieces from Cats - Gus: The Theater Cat and Macavity: The Mystery Cat. Gus is a song that just tells about a cat and his history. A man speaks the lines that Gus would say in the actual musical - and it makes the song interesting. Macavity is AWESOME! I know that I said that I didn't prefer this song for Brightman on her album "Surrender". I finally listened to it more carefully, and found that it's really interesting to listen to! My favorite song on the whole entire album - however - has to be "Tell Me on a Sunday". Beautiful lyrics, orchestrations, and overall spectacular voice talent ties the whole song together. Pie Jesu is a fairly nice piece from both Brightman and Paul Miles-Kingston - the 16 year old boy soprano. His voice is pure and straight with minimal vibrato. However, Brightman's voice shows a little bit TOO much vibrato! Overally, it's a good piece from Andrew Lloyd Webber's Requium. THIS CD IS AMAZING! If you love Sarah from the Phantom of the Opera, then this collection of Lloyd Webber's work is just for you.

I also recommend Charlotte Church - (in her earlier career) - including Voice of an Angel and her self-titled album. I also recommend Love Changes Everything - The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection Vol.2 - just another grouping of Webber's classics. I also recommend Andrea Boucelli - he's awesome!

The Angel of Music.......2006-03-13

This is the third copy of this I've purchased. I wear them out listening to them. Awesome, Awesome music. Sarah's range and depth is so powerful!

Thanks to good marketing, good cover art, and good luck, this disc probably has sold more copies than most other recordings of Gregorian chant put together. It's often quipped that most of those discs have been listened to exactly once and put away--to the puzzlement of many musicians and critics, who point out that there are more beautiful, more varied performances by professional singers available. Yet the singing of these Spanish Benedictines has a special quality that probably explains this disc's popularity--a reverent serenity that no doubt stems from the fact that the monks are actually praying, not just performing. Granted, Chant can become a bit monotonous with repeated listening, but it really gives you the sense of devotion that has always been the purpose of "Gregorian" chant. If this recording (ahem) enchants you at first, wonderful. If you get bored with it later, don't give up--there has been an extraordinary variety of styles and sounds over the 1,500-year history of plainchant, so go exploring with Anonymous 4, Ensemble Gilles Binchois, Sequentia, or Ensemble Organum. You won't be sorry. --Matthew Westphal

The CD was received on time and in excellent condition. I use the CD in the evenings to slow me down and get me in a relaxed mood.

Chant.......2007-03-09

It is a true to life portrail of the medieval prayer form.

Some things are ageless.

PEACE FROM WITHIN.......2007-01-09

I can't understand most of the latin words in these chants but the spirituality, harmony and the "music" in the monks' voices are refreshing to the soul. I know that several monks sing but you basically hear one voice. I would suggest that a pocket size book with the translation of each chant should accompany each CD.

Gregorian Chant.......2006-08-13

I purchased this item because one of my children has been going through the Tomatis method of auditory integration training to correct some auditory processing issues that affect his ability to communicate. The Gregorian Chant was recommended as a follow up because of its many and pure sound frequencies. After listening to different samples of the Chant, I picked the one sung by the Monks of Santo Domingo de Silos for its sound clarity. Also, it has been interesting to see the reaction of all my children. Two of them weep when they listen to the chant and the other one seems be soothed by it. As an adult, it is this soothing effect from the Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo de Silos that I find most fascinating.

Louder Now.......2007-04-24

Taking Back Sunday-Louder Now ***

Taking Back Sunday is a great band that knows how to write hit singles. Taking Back Sunday is not however a band that knows how to write great albums. They are very good lyricly, all of their songs have great lyrics there is no debating that, but musicaly that is where they lack. The drums and bass, and guitar are very basic. The vocals are great though and that is what the band focuses on.

The album starts out strong, very strong infact but after about half way through the album starts to lose the appeal it originaly had. 'Whats It Feel Like To Be A Ghost?' is a great song with a surprizingly good guitar riff, and really one of the better songs the band has made thus far, it wouldnt be surprizing to see the song climb the charts eventually. 'Liar' which is a hit song has some killer harmonies in the vocal department, and the lyrics are very much Taking Back Sunday. 'MakeDamnSure' was the lead single for the album and actually the best song the band ever recorded. Hands down one of the best pop rock songs ever. As far as the emo genre goes this is the genres 'Satisfaction.' 'Up Against (Blackout)' is another very catchy song that could just as easily be a hit single. 'My Blue Heaven' has great lyrics but is to be honest boring. 'Twenty-Twenty Surgery' is another catchy and great song, but this is the last good song on the album. The rest of the album is rather boring. A few moments try to shine through the clouds but never quite make it. This album could have been much, much better.

It is worth owning for the A side of it though because the first seven songs with the exception of one are very good. While it may not be as good as the bands first two albums it is still a solid effort, and the good songs here are really good and show promise for the things to come from Taking Back Sunday. If this is your kind of music go for it.

4.5 stars.......2007-04-03

I've never listened to any other TBS except for a song called 'Cute Without the E' that my friend wanted me to listen to. I think that this album is great, though. It's kinda...in between rock and punk, and...I don't really know what else to say about it. I like it a lot.

Emo Heroes wonder what Rock tastes like........2007-02-15

We all know who Taking Back Sunday is right? You either hate them, or love them, but this album might turn heads.. in both directions. TBS helped create the whole emotional (or "emo") music movement with "Tell All Your Friends". Then things happened, the lineup changed, and then they released their second, and in my opinion the best, release "Where You Want to Be". Now TBS is leaving the "emo" bandwagon and exploring into new territory, Rock, while bringing their sound with them. I'd say it's a really good try, but they barely miss the mark. I'll first start by saying this is all personal opion and you can either take it or leave, so leave me alone.

This cd was very good but did have a few kinks in it. With Fred Mascherino(typo?) taking over the task of writing some of the lyrics, the lyrics have become, although still very good, less witty than before. A few songs have also fallen into the "repeat the song title and call it a chorus" syndrome, like "Twenty-Twenty Surgery", "Miami" and "Liar", although I do like "Miami". The whole rock sound fits very well on TBS and throughout the whole record, but it may turn off some of the older fans.

There was also a couple songs I couldn't get out of my head, like the fan-favorite "MakeDamnSure". They also included a re-recording of "Error:Operator" from the Fantastic Four Soundtrack and movie, which is also one of my favorite songs, along with "Spin". The album hits a calmer stage with songs like "My Blue Heaven" and "Divine Intervention", but still retains its appeal.

So overall, I would give this album 4 stars just because of the few songs that didnt stick and the whole feel of the album, which, even though did keep TBS's sound, lost most of it along the journey. What I'm saying is, this isn't really the same TBS from the other albums. Change is good, but it takes time to perfect it.

Preview: "MakeDamnSure", "Spin", "Divine Intervention"

It's only natural that the Hold Steady singer Craig Finn receives all the attention. After all, he's the one with the big mouth. And while his odd and humorous rants are essentially compelling, they wouldn't be half as engrossing if his backing group, especially fellow ex-Minnesotan and Lifter Puller guitarist Tad Kubler, didn't smack up such a glorious din, scabrous punk rock swagger dolled up with classic hard rock power chords. "Separation Sunday" is the NYC-based group's second album and it's every bit as sassy and city wise as their 2004 debut "Almost Killed Me." Finn doesn't know the meaning of the phrase 'hold your tongue' and rudely shouts down the opposition on a number of romantic and religious matters, underscoring his contempt with touching moments of true pathos. Finn's surrounded by self-mutilators, abused lovers and deluded characters desperately chasing faith. It's a good thing he has such a crack band to keep them all in check. -- Jaan Uhelszki

Customer Reviews:

These guys are great .......2007-03-13

Well I'm a late convert to the Hold Steady, having just bought the newest CD Boys and Girls in America about a month ago (and listening to it nonstop since then). This weekend I found a copy of Separation Sunday and grabbed it and I love it. This one's probably a little more raw and rough around the edges than Boys and Girls, which has more piano and more "catchy" tunes. However I gotta say---Separation Sunday has absolutely outstanding lyrics, albeit very focused on the subject of how to reconcile a life of sex, drugs, and rock n' roll with religious and spiritual belief. I find it all quite brilliant, and love the Replacements/Stones/E Street Band sound of the music. The only caveat is the singer's voice---it's not for everyone. But that never stopped me from loving the music of Warren Zevon, Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, etc. etc. And I have to say, after 2 CD's, I love the Hold Steady and look forward to all of their future releases.

Back to the blues.......2007-01-30

I thought this album was decent, not the greatest of the year but it had a different feel than most of the rock and roll that was spewed out in the last couple of years. The Hold Steady remind me of The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. I like the references to hoodrats and Christianity, two very different directions but the Hold Steady makes it work. The music definitely outweighs the talent of the singer. His range is very limited, and I think that hurts the band a little. His lyrics however are potent and worth listining to. All in all its a good blues album and worth your money.

Rock 'n' roll is alive and well thanks to the Hold Steady, amen........2007-01-21

This album is a must have for those who love to rock, and it just may hit you where it counts if you're lucky. I remember writing down all the words to Back In Black on a small piece of paper when I was 14, and then reading it over and over during Catholic mass until I had them memorized. My little brother asked me what I was reading. When I told him, he got all wide-eyed and said in a hushed voice, "That's bad." And that's the gist of this album--how do you reconcile your love for rock 'n' roll with the mores of the Christian Faith? Maybe not a question that needs to be answered, but the fact that this band decided to pose it within the context of a classic rock hook-laden album makes this disc more entertaining than 95% of the music that came out in 2005. This band is pretty much the thinking person's Cheap Trick.

a unique band; in a bad way.......2006-11-10

The style of the Hold Steady gets old really fast; the singer doesn't even sing, he only talks while guitar goes on in the background. That sounded fine to me on the first song, but then I listened further and soon was getting bored with the repetitive nature of the songs. THe only song that pulls off this style is "Fire Coming Out of the Monkey's Head" by Gorillaz, which has narration more than singing. Cake also is kind of more narration than singing but only slightly. Anyway, the Hold Steady are an awful band who will probably fade into nothingness soon seeing that only 20 people have bothered to review it on Amazon.

Save your money.......2006-10-07

I bought that last cd and it SUCKED! The singer sings monotone the whole entire time and doesn't have any variations of tone. The music isn't half bad, it isn't great, but it certainly isn't so good that i can ignore the lame-o singer. its just terrible terrible terrible. if you listen to anything that i say hear this: do not buy this album, you will regret it for all of eternity!

Amazon.com essential recording

This live recording by the Bill Evans Trio at the Village Vanguard on June 25, 1961, marked the end of one of the most sublime instrumental combinations in jazz history when bassist Scott LaFaro died in a car accident 10 days later. This unit is underdocumented because Evans, a notorious perfectionist, was reluctant to record. The interchange between Evans on piano, LaFaro on bass and Paul Motian on drums is balletic in its balance of emotional beauty and technical precision. Multiple takes of "Gloria's Step," "Alice in Wonderland," "All of You," and "Jade Visions" show how the invention these players brought to each performance makes repeated material sound like movements in a suite. --John Swenson

Customer Reviews:

Yes, it's that special.......2007-01-11

I read a lot about this, and thought it couldn't be that good. It is. "Waltz for Debby" is even finer. This was Genius at work.

Wonderful.......2007-01-10

Anything Bill Evans plays is wonderful! I love his style of playing. This music is so calming.

Quietly Powerful.......2006-10-12

Sometimes I listen to this recording and I think to myself, "Why did I stop taking piano lessons at seven years old?" But I am glad that some little boys continued with their lessons; notably Bill Evans.

Bill Evans is so understated...so refined...so elegant that some may think he doesn't have an edge. Not true. His edge is refinement. His playing is never heavy handed, it never overtakes the musical situation, it is so subtle and yet so powerful that you just want more and more...

I also like the different version of each song. It's funnny how a little twist here and a little there can change the whole feel of a song. I remember how my mother, a classically trained pianist, would rehearse for weeks on end on a certain piece of music. She'd play the piece note for note, chord for chord according to what the sheet music had laid down, and then she would do something really interesting after she had learned the piece, she'd throw the music away and played according to the wants and needs of her own soul.

That's the feel I get from this CD. That everyone is playing from their own soul level and yet coming together to be as one for this recording. It's a very powerful recording and it's perfect for early morning writing....mmm...just like what I'm doing now.

I may have given up the piano, but I'm glad I still play at another kind of keyboard.

Peace & Blessings

i just cannot understand why.......2006-08-08

this CD arranges the songs the way it does. I love the sounds, the jazz, the piano, the bass, yeah all of that stuff is good and all, but why do I have to hear the same song twice in a row multiple times? Explain to me why there shouldn't be the six differnt songs (by title) and then the four repeats tacked onto the end so as to excite a "Wow, yeah that was a great song, I don't mind hearing it again" instead of a "I just heard that song?"

I reccommend getting a recording that doesn't do this. There are many versions of the music created on this legendary day.

Great CD - Recommended for Kids.......2007-03-18

This is a Great CD with great songs. We also have the similar version in DVD and the songs and video are great. My son loves these songs, so do we. Highly recommended.

Kids love it.......2007-01-24

My eleven yr old first heard the songs on this CD about 5 years ago. He still really enjoys listening to them now. The CD was a replacement purchase for the old tapes we wore out.

That's right, some of the most beautiful songs ever recorded........2006-09-27

I just bought this CD for myself and I love it! It would be great for students in a private school, or for Christmas, or sitting by a campfire at summer camp. These religious tunes are probably the most beautiful I have ever heard. My favorites are "He's got the Whole World" and "Michael Row the Boat." Up till today, I never even knew that the "he" of the first song mentioned in this review refers to the one-and-only God. Basically, this is an ideal CD to have in every child's house and every grade school since it teaches children to appreciate God more than anything else in the universe. Just ignore the fact that track 29 is substantially different from track 14. I must say these wonderful songs are waaaaaaaay better than some of the dull kids TV shows that came out recently. Oh, and if some of you animé fans out there like shows like "Water-spider Wonder-spider," you'll like this, too! Get it and you'll see what I mean.

A cute cd for kids and GREAT value!.......2005-09-26

I bought this cd for my daughter, after looking at a LOT of kid's cd's for Sunday School/Christian songs. She really loves the songs in Sunday School and tends to sing them throughout the rest of the week, so I thought she would probably love something like this.

For the price alone, you can't beat this cd for value. There are children singing the songs, instead of one adult, as I found in some other cd's. This is also a quality recording and the music isn't awful, as in some of the cheap cd's I've gotten in the last few years (most of which have one adult singing the songs to campy, almost techno music). Also, the words for each song are printed in the cd insert. Sure, my 5 year old can't really read the words yet, but it helps that *I* have access to the lyrics of a couple of songs that I either didn't know or was unsure of the lyrics to.

If you're looking for a good, quality cd of kid's Sunday School songs, you don't have to look any further. This is the PERFECT cd for you. I am going to get a couple of the other titles from this company and hopefully, they will be just as good. My daughter LOVES this cd and, as a parent, I am not cringing every time I hear it come on. :)

Amazon.com essential recording

After Merrily We Roll Along's devastating flop in 1981, Stephen Sondheim thought about abandoning the theater. He wrote one of his most beloved shows instead, Sunday in the Park with George. Sondheim and his new collaborator, librettist/director James Lapine, used George Seurat's painting "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" as a way to tackle the issue of artistic creation itself. Both Mandy Patinkin and Bernadette Peters play two different parts with brio, jumping across decades with ease, and they get to deliver some of Sondheim's most heartwrenching songs--"Color and Light," "Finishing the Hat," "Putting It Together," and "Children and Art." Sunday in the Park with George is one of the most intellectually ambitious musicals to ever hit Broadway--and one of the most emotionally rewarding. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Amazing!.......2007-06-10

One of the best scores written by Stephen Sondheim! So amazing! You will enjoy it very much!

Sunday in the Park with George (remastered).......2007-05-12

I rented the VHS version of this musical from the video store a long time ago and fell in love with the music and the songs when i first seen it. so naturally i had to go ouot and find the CD. but they only had it on special order. so i ordered it and i have been in love with it ever since. I love the music cause it reflects my mood in diffrent aspects. I listen to it whenever i get the chance and a whole flood of emotions run thru me whenever i hear certain phrases. Now that they finally got the remastered version out i had to order it right away. i had heard one of the bonus tracks (Sunday) on a cassette i had and i loved it. it is a good rendition of the song. the other Bonus Track (putting it together) i have heard the Carol Burnette Version on TV and it was a awesome combining of lyrics. so this is a beautifukl addition to the soundtrack.This is what made me fall in love with Stephen Sondheim and his music. Cause he knows hwo to write for people and how to touch ate youor emotions. Sunday in the Park with George is a awesome CD and I highly reccommend it to anyone who loves a good Sondheim show. Bernadette peters and Mandy Patinkin are brillent and deserve the praise once again since this woerful music has been reissued for a new generation to hear. Enjoy this CD and fall in love with the music once again....

Top Heavy Sondheim.......2007-04-16

"Sunday" was the first of Sondheim's attempts to trip himself up by creating an amazing first act out of town then challenging himself to paint his way out of the corner he'd trapped himself in. (Kelsey Grammer was George at La Jolla when it was a one-act.) Sondheim didn't completely succeed here; he came closer with "Into the Woods". The second act George is no match for the first, so neither is the musical's. I saw it twice, with one of the leads each time but their replacements in the other role; and an ideal production would have been the replacements playing the second act. Mandy P. had too much weight for the second George and Bernadette P. was a Carol Burnett sketch as the old lady. Her voice is too raw for the difficult material, though she is always very, very game.

The remaster sounds brilliant. The bonus material is not very interesting. Hearing a cut of Grammer would have been.

Sondheim Is Genius.......2006-03-20

My first exposure to Sondheim was "Into the Woods". Perfection. Then "Passion". A change, but still moving. Next was "Sweeney Todd". WOW, WOW, WOW. Could anything be these? Yes! "Sunday in the Park With George" may not have the best music, the most memorable songs, or be the most easy to listen to, but the whole concept makes it stand alone. This is probably Sondheim's most personal recording, and it shows, not through the gut-wrenching "We Do Not Belong Together" and "Move On", but through the artistic numbers like "Color and Light", "Finishing the Hat", "Children and Art", and, especially, "Putting It Together". The show is about the pains of creating a piece of art, such as a painting or a musical, and how the public's perception of the finished product can be skewed. This is an entirely artistic work, so those used to a more easy to follow story may not like this one as much as his others.

Aside from all that, this recording also shines with two extrodinary leads in Mandy Patinkin and the amazing Bernadette Peters. Mandy Patinkin is always great, and his performances in "Color in Light", "Finishing the Hat", and "Putting It Together" really show what the show is all about. It's Bernadette Peters, however, who steals this recording. From the great opener "Sunday in the Park With George" to the moving "Move On", she's flawless. Her comedic talent shows through in the opener, but her gem on this recording "We Do Not Belong Together", perfectly captures her emotional range. She's probably the most emotional singer I've heard, and that's why I love her. You can actually HEAR her tears!!! It's amazing.

In all, this may not have been Sondheim's most successful work, but due to it being so personal and artistic, it's definitely the best.

My Sunday.......2006-02-23

I love this music although at first I foung George to be rather crazy: singing about dogs, red, beer, blue, yellow, white and finishing the hat. I am firsthand experiencing the magic of this wonderful music as Louise in 'Sunday in the Park' at Smithtown Theater. Come and see it....

Where You Want To Be.......2007-04-24

Taking Back Sunday-Where You Want To Be ****

Where You Want To Be is Taking Back Sundays best album. While I am not big on the whole emo trip that the rest of the world seems to be stuck on I will say that Taking Back Sunday is a truly great band. Their lyrics are great and they're performances are great. While musically Taking Back Sunday is nothing to qawk serperatly but together they are a great band.

'Set Phasers To Sun' is a great song to open the album. 'A Decade Under The Influence' and 'This Photograph Is Proof' both went on to become minor hits for the band and help the album to sell the amount of copies it did. 'The Union' is another great song with really good lyrics and some memorable guitar work. 'New American Classic' aside from having a really cool title is a really cool song. It is slow and acoustic. The song serves as a nice center peice or focal point on an album full of angst, emotions, and lots of screaming. The band saved the best for last, '...Slowdance On The Inside' closes the album. It is easily the best song the band ever recorded. It is also the perfect way to end the album. The song features some of the coolest and most creative lyrics ever written. Though very, very emo the song is really great for two dating teenagers. The rest of the songs on the album are all still good songs they just dont do anything to really stand out among the other before mentioned songs. That doesnt mean that they are any worse though.

Taking Back Sunday managed to make one of the most deppressing albums ever depending on you current love and relationship status. Where You Want To Be will go down in as one of the Emo genres best albums when the little fad fades away.

Perfect........2007-01-10

[Not a kid, can't remember my sign-in ;] ]

I first heard Taking Back Sunday 3 or 4 years ago as a kid on yahoo. I saw a link for lindsay lohan first video, and was curious so on I went to yahoo music. I was young, naive; and an avid Avril Lavigne fan and loved Blink 182. After a non descript and non memorable pop video, the film clips kept rolling randomly, whilst undetected, gradually exceeding my download limit. Then what I heard turned my world upside down. That day I heard "Cute without the 'E'", "You are So Last Summer", "A decade under the influence" and "The photograph is proof". Every day for six months I listened to those videos repeatedly, never getting sick of them, never getting bored, never satiating my appetite to hear them. Everyday for six months, until my dad got the internet bill. I had no way to listen to my favourite band, Taking Back Sunday.
Borrowing Where You Want to Be off a friend I was blown away. Having little expectations, or pre conceived ideas from "TAYF" (and 'emo' being non existent) I was just happy to hear it, and nothing could have prepared me for the music. The vocals weave in and out of each other, contrasting, and painting the picture for the confusion and conflict of the lyrics. The 2 different vocals are the clear stand out, and the bands signature; and its always hard to pick a favourite voice or choose the better lyrics being sung. The lyrics were written masterfully, with beautiful words, unexpected prose, enough careful repetition and original rhymes. The dramatic desperation, wistful regret and tongue-in-cheek irony are conveyed perfectly with a touch of vindictive viciousness. I fell in love with the beginning guitar riffs of each song, the breakdowns, and echoing vocals and those suggestive lyrics that are barely just breathed. Each song was fast moving and catchy, easy to sing along to, but better to fall asleep to. The poetic verses and defiant choruses with great hooks.
The first half of the CD is classic TBS, the first two songs are what you expect, but still love and are in the same vein as the two hit singles 'Decade Under the Influence' and 'The Photograph Is Proof'; 'the Union' is original and tends to sound chaotic on the first listen but the second listen you appreciate its violence more; its a stand out great song. 'New American Classic' follows, a sadly sweet acoustic song with a pretty melody; gentle guitar and soaring strings. After this is 'I Am Fred Astaire' a song title I adore for it uniqueness somewhat arrogance. The whole song takes that sort of edge, a bittersweet break-up song with an awesome beat and fun metaphors and anthem style chorus. It is similar to Brand News "Jude Law and a Semester Abroad" in subject matter and performance. (I'm not going to talk about the controversy between these bands) After this song, although it was an early favourite for me starts my preferred half of the CD the later songs. These ones seem to be more romantic than the early ones but in that same dramatic TBS way.
These four songs for me are Taking Back Sundays best, my favourites, their peak. Looking at the previous CD "TAYF" and the following latest CD "Louder Now" it's easy to see that "WYWTB" was the crossover or in the middle of the other two styles, and that they combine "TAYF"'s raw and emotional or now 'emo', romantic and amazingly lyrics with "Louder Now"'s intense guitar oriented rock, leaving a dramatic, bittersweet, violent and tongue-in-cheek punk rock that sounds-for want of a better word;pretty. 'One-eighty by summer' has a great intro and amazing catchy hooks and the vocals bounce of each other. This an awesome and just a bit arrogant punk rock anthem. I love the guitars and it has nice breakdown.
"Number 5 with a Bullet" follows and has a great building up intro into a cleverly written and thoughtful lyrics and a perfect chorus. The contrasting vocals almost seem like one of the arguments or fights that you can relate to (this can happen in a few songs). Another awesome breakdown. "Little Devotional" is an obvious yet clever song about sex that's suprisingly tender but still as catchy and dramatic as ever. Second best song on the CD. I adore its lyrics, and the vengeful and desperate end to this.
The final song on the album is "...Slowdance on the Inside".
This song is just.......perfection. You can tell from the beginning and soft strings intro its going to be amazing. Then the lyrics clearly hit you with 'Passed out in our school clothes.." Adams voice is really beautiful here, and throughout the songs entirety. The songs quite long(4.28;long in comparison on the CD), so it can take its time building up to the choruses. The instruments work in unison and the sound is awesome. The second chorus has the best lyrics, my all-time favourites. They're suggestive yet metaphorical and can be interpreted a few ways. Beautiful, powerful, dramatic it feels like a complete, whole song.
This album is a worthwhile investment, of music that is very easy to listen to whilst still being challenging. Maybe you won't love it as much as I do or as much as there other albums. For me, as great as "Louder Now" is, it was a bit of a disappointment for me, because I was hoping for another 'Number 5 with a Bullet' or a 'Slowdance on the Inside'.
However its good to see the band growing, and I'm looking forward to their next release. On this CD though, hardcore rock fans will like 'Set Phasers to the Sun' 'Bonus Mosh Pt. 2' and 'The Union'. You'll recognise 'Decade Under...' and 'This Photograph..' which are somewhat reminiscent of "TAYF" and if you like those you'll love 'I Am Fred Astaire'. Fans of emo or acoustic will adore 'New American Classic'.If you like a good rock anthem you'll enjoy '180 by Summer'. The best songs are '...Slowdance on the Inside' and 'Little Devotional' and 'Set Phasers..' and my personal favourite (aside from Slowdance) is 'Number 5 with a Bullet'. A worthwhile album that seems to epitomise Taking Back Sunday, defining them. There are no fillers on the album, and the popular singles will be overshadowed. Fans of "TAYF" don't dismiss this, I was lucky to hear this before exploring "TAYF" and falling in love with those songs.
If you love this album you'll enjoy 'Great Romances of the 20th Century' and 'Timberwolves at New Jersey' and 'Head Club'. If you're a fan of "WYWTB" you'll love the download only bonus track 'Brooklyn' from "LN" easily the best song (other than Blue Heaven) on the album.
This album was what won my heart, and on the strength of this album I will always be obsessed with this TBS. Its provided a soundtrack for my life, and across the globe. Classic Taking Back Sunday is "Where You Want To Be" and it is where you'll want to be, and where you'll want TBS to be.

I can't think of a title........2006-12-22

I honestly think this is the best Taking Back Sunday CD, hands down. I don't really need to state any reasons, it's just good.

good cd.......2006-08-24

This CD is certainly a good one. It starts off very fantastic for a good portion of the cd, and then i feel as though it fizzles out. I highly recomend this cd if you are thinking about ording it. it is definetly worth the money

Gotta have it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2006-08-09

This could be the soundtrack of your life. The whole album moves you everytime. Whether you want to get pumped up, mellow out, take a moment to reflect, or revel in your plans for payback, this is the album for you!
