""I think it was the first time I realized that I can change the world, or at least change the way you and my sister hit the clock on every tick just to see what happened. The time has really flown by I guess and it's hard to think of the way it might've been or remember very specifically the word..."  [+]  Reply

"'Everything Changes' continues the successful blend of alternative rock and Celtic folk-pop in Del Amitri's music. The follow-up to 'Waking Hours' is nearly as good, even if the lack of really strong singles drags it down a bit. The sound on this LP is fuller and closer to adult contemporary rock..."  [+]  Reply

"It had been a four and a half year gap between, tunnel of love, and his new release, 2 albums on the same day, human touch, and, lucky town.

"A rainy day at the beach. You've brought all your closest friends with you and despite this weather, you still have the best time of your lives. The day ends with you all diving into the sea, it's so cold yet it's the perfect closer to the day."  Reply

"I like the variety of instruments on top of hip hop beats. The bass and drums are from live players and they're great. Props to the funky bass and guitar, and jazzy sax. The album as a whole has quite a mash of genres: hip hop, trip hop, dance and so on, it held my interest and the music is so go..."  [+]  Reply
