5 out of 5 stars didnt like trance untill now.......2003-10-21

being 40 some thing i didnt really know what trance was but i liked the hit single dont give up so i thought id take a chance on this cd , it is a 5 star album in every respect and iam hooked to chicane now , the high light of the album is halcyon which is a musical journey which i wished would never end , all in all every home should have one

5 out of 5 stars An album full of "Chicanery".......2001-08-18

The first time I heard about Chicane, was when I was listening to his remix of BT's and Paul van Dyk's "Flaming June". The track was good, but I thought nothing of it really, then listening to a Trance radio station while surfing the net, I heard a masterpiece from "Behind The Sun" called "Halcyon". This song was so wonderful, it prompted me to save up my money and buy the CD.

Knowing nothing of Chicane, even about his hit "Offshore" (I live in a really small town) I really didn't know what to expect from this album. Starting off with beatless ambience for a warm up, it changed to a stellar prelude called "Low Sun", setting you in a type of mellow jungle, this track sets you up for "No Ordinary Morning" which is a great song reflecting on lost love. Both the "Saltwater"s are great, although I prefer to jump right into "Halcyon", "Autumn Tactics", "Don't Give Up" and "Andromeda". Me, having heard the Thrillseeker's mix of "Autumn Tactics" and thinking it was the original, totally unprepared me for this track, starting like an alternative rock song, but then getting to the lyrics, with the great vocals of Justine Suissa. "Overlap" is a nice interlude between "Autumn Tactics" and "Don't Give Up" "Andromeda" is a semi-cool down song, but not really giving you the feeling that the CD has ended. Unfortunately for me, I bought the UK/Canadian release, and did not have the pleasure of hearing the Radio Edit of "Don't Give Up" which is the bonus song for the US release. Even though the original is better and I've heard the Radio Edit, it's always better to have the extra song. I hope Chicane keeps using his Chicanery in his next albums and that he keeps them original.

All in all, the CD was perfect, you know, one of those albums where you actually like ALL of the songs on it. This music was crafted very well with the melodies and countermelodies and so on. Chicane uses his unique Trance/Dance/Pop/Ambience style to its fullest.

5 out of 5 stars it's behind the sun.......2001-03-06

I didn't know Brian Adams could sound so good ("Don't Give Up")!! Maire Brennan is angelic on "Saltwater". And the remix is even more tantillizing. "Autumn Tactics" (vocals by Justine Suissa) is reminiscent of Everything But the Girl. Tracy Ackerman on "No Ordinary Morning" is mesmerizing. I think the album just keeps getting better from first track to the last.

5 out of 5 stars PERFECTION.......2000-07-04

I have just finished reading everyones review of this album, and im amazed at anyone who doesnt like this. This is by far the best trance album i have ever heard. The music is excellent for any occasion. Every song is Beautiful on this CD. My personal favorites are No Ordinary Morning & Halycon. I have all 3 of the chicane realeases and i love them all! But this one is the BEST! Its a must buy for anyone who can appreciate the beauty of music. As far as im concerned CHICANE is the best trance artist ever. and i can't imagin it getting any better then this. Another CD i strongly recommend is Paul Van Dyk - Out There and Back.

5 out of 5 stars I have to admit, I'm impressed.......2000-05-31

I must apologise to anyone who thinks that this isn't 'serious enough' or too 'poppy' but I was pretty impressed with Nick Bracegirdle's effort. By far one of the best tracks in this album is 'Halcyon' and is bound to do something this summer, I rate it definitely above 'Don't give up'; 'Saltwater' is immense and the ambient mix is brilliant for chilling out to. The question is whether this is better than FFTMC...perhaps they should be played at different times of the day?

5 out of 5 stars amazon.co.uk.......2004-09-26

I bought this in London on a trip and it seems that the release is limited to UK.

It's the same as the US release with a bonus track - worth getting. The packaging is also different (paper).

Since this is a import, you might want to go to amazon.co.uk and notice the significant "value" you could save if you order it directly from them!

The same goes for other U2 singles for ATYCLB that were not released in the states.

3 out of 5 stars A Fan.......2003-07-02

I follow the theory that says you can't be a fan of the band if you're not willing to follow them where-ever they go(musically, that is). If you fall of the wagon, you're just a fan of some of the music. I am an U2 fan, I follow (and even WILL follow), but I beg of you : Don't start here. If you're looking for a jumping-off point for an U2 experience, one of the following will serve you far better :
Boy
The Unforgettable Fire
Rattle & Hum
Achtung Baby.

I, myself, started with October, but then, I didn't have a wise woman like me to take advice from. ^_~

5 out of 5 stars It's U2, how can you go wrong?.......2003-06-03

In all honesty, spend the extra bucks and make sure you get the version with "The Ground Beneath Her Feet", it's one of those U2 songs that are never gonna make it to main stream radio, but is a real classic for people who actually listen to the whole album and not just the singles. ATYCLB is easily one of U2's best albums to date, it's a great record that will stain your life with memories and emotion forever.

5 out of 5 stars I loved it so much I bought it twice!.......2001-06-26

This album has been a great triumph for a band that I have been listening to since the early eighties. Every time U2 comes out with a new album I have to change my choice of favorite cd. If you think I am lying, contact me and I will show you the light. Now walk on

5 out of 5 stars U2 walk on into the 21st century, still the best!.......2001-01-21

"All that you can't leave behind" is not U2's best album - my personal favourite is "Achtung Baby", where every song is a masterpiece and every note sounds as if it were the best that could possibly have been chosen. Whilst ATYCLB is great, it doesn't quite achieve that perfection, but then, an imperfect U2 album is twice as good as many other bands' best. To call them "past it" is to ignore the incredible creative power of this group.

The theme in this album is change. Moving on, but being true to yourself. This is mentioned in several songs: for example, "Stuck In A Moment" and "Walk On". It sums it up really, for lack of another theme: this does not have the angry rock style of their early albums, the acoustic simplicity of "The Joshua Tree", the dark intricacy of "Achtung". It is an amalgamation of these, and yet none of them, but still U2; craftsmen of music, emotion and thought.

"Beautiful Day" deserves to be classed with the greatest U2 tracks - it combines subtly intelligent lyrics and fantastic music in the classic U2 song structure, building up into a euphoric climax. "Stuck In A Moment" juxtaposes a cheery gospel tune with tough but sensitive lyrics. "Elevation" is a cracking tune with an infectious sense of fun, although the lyrics are a bit too silly. "Walk On" is my favourite off the album - a classic, emotional swelling song with beautiful and intimate lyrics. "Kite" has truly great moments, although the structure is uneven (the tongue-in-cheek last lyrics don't seem to fit with some of the rest of it). "In A Little While" is a simple, sexy little rhythm; like another reviewer said, I dare you to sit still through it! "Wild Honey" is a nice tune, hints of country ... sounds a lot like a feelgood version of "In God's Country". "Peace On Earth" sets hard-hitting lyrics to a simple, soulful tune - it is reminiscent of a few songs from the early albums (eg. "October","War"). "When I Look At The World" is a sweeping, richly textured song with one of the best Edge riffs ever. "New York" is confident, restrained mostly but bursting into occasional loudness, with U2's more 90's lyrical ambiguity. "Grace" is not my favourite song, although it can be surprisingly enjoyable when relaxed enough - it had potential for more. Lastly, having heard "The Ground Beneath Her Feet" off my brother's "Million Dollar Hotel" CD, I held out for the bonus track, and I recommend you do, too. It may seem a bit dark and electronic compared with the rest of the album, but at its heart is U2 musical emotion and Bono's amazing voice, and the classic "building up" structure also used in great songs like "With Or Without You".

This album is a must buy for any U2 fan, not necessarily because it is the best, but because it is an essential part of their immensely creative, multi-faceted body of work.

    For some, outfits like producer Nick Bracegirdle's Chicane are not easy to swallow. Isolating the more jubilant properties of trance, the beat is a light bounce, levitating above club-dance brainlessness, sounding like a house music hybrid meant for sparkling sunshine instead of dark and sweaty warehouses. They exist in an idealized, pseudo-enlightened fairy tale filled with bright colors and youthful beauty. But that's not the problem. What rankles purists and picky fans is the audacity with which these "techno" artists go after the unconverted common folk, dragging electronic music out of its druggy, "in-crowd" pretensions. Bracegirdle and contemporaries like Olive, Sneaker Pimps, and BT (the last, most noticeably on his Movement in Still Life) are waging a turf war on the boundaries between techno and pop music, each using different tactics and borrowing from different sources. Chicane throws out an especially cutting salvo in the battle here, and it's a doozy. None other than Bryan Adams lends his raspy tenor to the subtle grooves and euphoric dreaminess of "Don't Give Up." It's one thing for Liam Gallagher to lend his pipes to a Chemical Brothers track, or for BT to tap Tori Amos for the ubiquitous club hit "Blue Skies," but Bryan Adams? Is this heresy? Or an ingenious use of vocal color that yields an incredibly hummable dance anthem? Maybe it's best not to analyze What It All Means. Just sit back and enjoy the summery grooves, trusting these ongoing musical inspirations to become whatever they need to be. --Matthew Cooke

    5 out of 5 stars My favorite album of all time! Absolutely perfect!.......2006-10-23

    This is the best electronic music album I have EVER heard. This is the stuff that changes peoples perceptions about chillout, house, and trance music. Every person I have ever played this to has bought a copy, and sings the same praises about it. From its beautiful, melodic soundscapes, to crisp and perfect mastering and sound quality, to it's diverse and well thought out track sequencing. Melodic and ethereal downtempo, coastline breaks, beach and sunset inspired house...It's all here, in all it's cinematic brilliance. This is my favorite album of all time from any genre. If you have ever wanted an album you can play all the way through over and over again, this is it.

    "Saltwater", here in both club and ambient versions, is the kind of song you NEED to hear before you die. It is the last song I want to hear before I pass, and any music lover or dance music fans should have this album in their life.

    4 out of 5 stars Great Buy.......2006-03-19

    This album is one of Chicane's best. There is a great diversity of tracks, but the album is a bit short. If you like trance, you'll love this album.

    4 out of 5 stars Electronic contemporary classic!.......2006-01-10


    If you like easy listening electronic music, Im pretty sure that this albums in now consider as a classic, or a must have, name it as you want to. This albums is great. Melodic, strong beats, nice arrangements, great colaborations (Bryan Adams,Maire Brennan )My favorite song is autumn tactics it's wonderful, it's an album to listen in the beach through the sunset having a daiquiri, you oughta love it.

    The only reason I didn't gave it 5 stars it's because I think it should have mixed transitions between tracks.

    5 out of 5 stars Not a bad song on the Album.......2005-12-10

    This CD is like a buffet there are many delicious sounds on the album and you find yourself going back for more and more. Very Earthy and very open for the moment. The effort in each track is remarkable if your are a person who appreciates the sounds of instruments played with talent and unduplicated style. Something for everyone or something for your many sides.

    5 out of 5 stars Great album........2005-08-16

    Behind the Sun is a wonderful trance album. Almost every song is worth listening to. No Ordinary Morning is one of the most haunting and beautiful songs you'll ever hear.
