Some of the most brilliant, witty, and moving lyrics of any album. Get Me Away From Here, I'm Dying is one of the best-written songs of all time. This album is cohesive without being repetitive. It has the perfect balance of humor, yearning, passion. Simply a fantastic album!

A near perfect album. Hall's smooth vocals deliver charming, melancholy, yet hopeful lyrics. His sense of humour is ever present and the album flows like poetry. A stand-out solo project from a musical icon, one of the best.

Molko's unique vocals and tongue-in-cheek lyrics shine throughout and create an album that is energizing, passionate, sarcastic, emotional, and just a good listen. 36 Degrees and Nancy Boy are stand out tracks for me. Even the album's weaker tracks like Hang on to Your IQ are still ... read more
