Customer Review: This is a departure from the initial three albums from Coldplay, and the songs often sounded disjointed and strange compared to those on Parachutes, X&Y and a Rush of Blood to the head. Those albums are so great that the first time I played Viva is just didn't do it for me and I found myself... more info
Customer Review: I never heard of Jason Mraz until a week ago when Amazon suggested the album when I was browsing for Lizz Wright. I listened to a few samples and went out to buy the album the next day. The songs are extremely catchy, all have their own character, are really original and do not bore you after a few... more info
Customer Review: I love every edition of the now series because, shucks, I just loves me some pop music. I love the songwriting by other people, the beats instead of people playing instruments and the fact that every song out now has to feature someone else. Originality? Who needs it, these tracks are just straight... more info
Customer Review: Rolling Stone once described Snow Patrol as a band that sneaks up on you, stealthily altering the musical landscape as they go. It could be an apt description of the songs on this album. They do indeed creep up on you slowly, so that by the third or fourth listen, you're hooked. the lyrics often... more info
Customer Review: This is an excellent album. The highlights for me include "sex on fire", "manhattan", "revelry", and "notion".

Customer Review: From the first song on, my instant reaction to the album was "This reminds me a little of Wild Mood Swings." (an album I like that had the tough chore of following "Wish"). The songs are back to being a little more "pop" than The previous albums Bloodflowers and Self Titled, both of which I was... more info
Customer Review: Thank you Amazon, for offering this album at a special price the day it was released. I had planned on going to my local store to pick up the cd, but decided to save a few bucks instead. Glad I did. There are some good songs here, but they are obscured by an overwrought production right out of 1986.... more info
Customer Review: This is a great JM CD if you are already a fan and are looking for that extra acoustic take on some familiar songs. I love the vocal rhythm changes in "Slow Dancing in a Burning Room" and the soft guitar in "Belief" I definitely think that this offers a cool, chill feel to John's music, and is a... more info
Customer Review: I bought this CD because I like there "Riot" CD and I have to say this one is better. If you like paramore's other CD Riot I highly recommend this.
