"I really like the first 4 albums by OLP, and this one isn't an exception. It might be my least favorite of the 4, but it is still a very good record. "Naveed" is an awesome album and "Clumsy" is a good follow-up, but it might be a little bit too similar to its predecessor to really stand out. But..." [+] Reply

"This album used to confuse me. I didn't get it. I thought it was a compilation of early solo recordings of Simon whilst he was a member of Simon & Garfunkel.

"The Monkees most solid effort by virtue of being more of Mike Nesmith and less of everyone else, though still too much Davy Jones. Mike sings Salesman, Door Into Summer, Love Is Only Sleeping, What Am I Doin' Hanging 'Round?, and Don't Call On Me. Mickey Dolenz does well on Words, Pleasant Valley..." [+] Reply

"Probably my favorite album of the past 5 years. My one and only issue is that they claim they don't like Joy Division, despite sounding a fair bit like a poppier, more modern Joy Division ..." Reply

"It makes me very sad that Thuramthugood is the only one to comment on this wonderful album. Unfortunately, he only has numbers to offer. And they simply don't say anything. This album is an experience from A to Z!" Reply

"This is hard to rate because the guitars are fantastic but that's all there is. I don't mean it like it's not enough but occasionally it feels more like a talent show than an album to me. With that said, the guitar playing is inventive and original. The melodies are catchy on each song. There are..." [+] Reply

"I feel that some of these tracks reek early 90's as well as having a song like Shake, which was easily the worst song on the album. However songs like Set Adrift on Memory Bliss, Paper Doll, Reality Used to Be a Friend of Mine,A Watchers Point of View, Even After I Die and On A Clear Day were som..." [+] Reply

"After 8 months I still can't get enough of this album. I've held off on putting it in my top 10, but I think now it's going there. The album is beautifully melancholy while also being optimistic...the emotions that went into the songwriting on this album is as genuine as the guys in Keane. I've s..." [+] Reply
