"Without purpose, this has become one of my favorite bowie albums. Bowie albums take up about 20 spaces in the top 5000. This is at the bottom for bowie by bea, I really wonder about the credibility of this site when so many of his albums are rated higher than this." Reply

"The swagger is there, he spits out verbal lashings as viciously as usual, but the beats aren't as memorable or the lyrics as deep as they could be." Reply

"Best album for relaxing up at the lake... No question. Put it on an old ghetto blaster, haul it down to the dock, and watch the bugs fly over the water and some canoeist paddle by. So much emotion, but so attached to their roots. Brilliant. Blue Rodeo`s best - and that`s saying alot. They have 5 ..." [+] Reply

"Wow! Such an underrated album! Can't believe there are no comments so far! A very influential punk-becomes-pop, awesome lyrics, and probably the one with their most memorable songs. Everything Sucks is the moment when you realize that they have never grown up since I Don't Want to Grow Up." Reply
"Definitely their most consistently brilliant album." Reply

"Ethereal, hypnotic, sometimes meandering, sometimes frustrating, often beautiful. Be-In and Good Morning are gorgeous and dreamy. Cool as Kim Deal, Holiday and Last Junkie are poppy bangers. On the other hand, Minnesoter and I Love You stop the album dead in its tracks- and the fact that they're ..." [+] Reply
"I guess you can never have too much Funky Drummer. I liked the sampled music on this, as well as the non-sampled beats and bass. For me the production is what made the album good, while the rapping was just all right. Then again I'm not a hip hop fan but I liked this a lot." Reply
