"If this record would have been released by anyone else but David Bowie it would get more respect. I admit it is a little long and some of the tracks could have been eliminated.

"Where has this been all my life? This is an album that is worth it for the first track alone. “Bloodletting” is a bluesy voodoo groove that sets the tone for this album perfectly.

"Beautiful pure simple pop with a Scandi twist!" Reply
"Its a really solid album through and through. It just sounds much much more assured and beautiful than his debut a year before. The songs are consistently gorgeous and topical yet timeless. In songs like "That's What I Want To Hear" its amazing cuz the concerns aren't dated at all. And his tribut..." [+] Reply
