"Being a biligual Belgian this album is full of meaning to me. 'Marieke' still moves me as much as the first time I heard it and invariably brings up feelings of melancholy and loss mixed with a deep sense of roots while living in two different worlds."  Reply

"Sometimes this is somehow plain, but at other times it's a very happy album and perfect for some background noise. I really dig this even though I never heard about White Denim until now.

"It seems that the people making the 1001 Albums books have lost their minds. To get into a book you must make an album with songs with no sense, rhythm, message or whatever. This album is a prime example of that insanity."  Reply

"This is the greatest singer-songwriter album you've never heard. I don't know where it can be purchased, but for the love of God, find it. Jeff Ham, the leader of this band of miscreants, wrote some unbelievably good songs, recorded them with some friends, halfheartedly toured around Chicago and ..."  [+]  Reply

"Rufus wainwright's fifth album was a slight disappointment after the genius of the, want, LP's. Still, it is Wainwright, so all is not lost. There are still superb songs, the best being, going to a town, between my legs, and the stunning, slideshow. Tiergarten, is nice, nobody's off the hook, is ..."  [+]  Reply
