- One of my all-time favorites. A true concept album that stands up all the way through. You wanna know what it's like to be sad listen to "1,000 Umbrellas." If you wanna know what it's like to be happy listen to "Ballet for a Rainy Day." Overall, upbeat and catchy. This is art...

- I had really thought I had reviewed this album years ago. Oops. It's a great one that still grows on me with each listen. It could be mistaken for a best-of collection, given its quality (and I mean that literally; sometimes I play their best of and think it's this album).
