«Counting Crows»
I have every one of their CD's because I really like this group. However this CD didn't do anything for me.

«Very Disappointed»
I hate admitting this because I've been a Counting Crows fan since... well since "August...". But this CD is so bland I couldn't get into it at all.
I gave it chance after chance... listen after listen. None of the songs ever stuck in my head. I found the music to be old hat, but not in a classic, good way. And the lyrics were terribly weak. They've lost all feeling. One of the things that has always made CC a good band was that the lyrics were usually raw and filled with emotion. This CD sounds like they didn't put anything of themselves in it. Its almost as if they're just performing songs that other people wrote as parodies of counting crows songs.
This is the first Counting Crows Cd i took out of my rotation before I knew the order of songs by memory. It just hurt every time i tried to listen.
as they say... All good things...

«Did not instantly grab me, but...»
...upon subsequent listens I became a really big fan of this CD. The Crows can still put out the good soulful tunes. I'm anxious for the next.
