Chapman is an eloquent lyricist with a strong social conscience, but she's also a superb songwriter and musician and Where You Live contains several instances of low key beauty.

All Music Guide

Where You Live is yet another elegant and easy album from Chapman, just the kind her fan base has come to expect.

Uncut

If you're a fan, Where You Live is classic Chapman. [Oct 2005, p.94]

Billboard

The album distinguishes itself from Chapman's previous releases with its stellar studio band and its refusal to submit to pop production. [17 Sep 2005]

The Guardian

She's still on fine, if depressing form.

Blender

The arrangements are lean but wonderfully evocative... while Chapman's lyrics remain memorable and affecting. [Oct 2005, p.136]

Mojo

Given her almost unremittingly bleak subject matter, it helps enormously that she's blessed with a unique voice. [Oct 2005, p.108]

Q Magazine

In many ways Chapman just sings the same song over and over. [Oct 2005, p.115]

Nice music, good lyrics, but not an absolute MUST hear...

boitumelo a gave it an8:
this is very moving

Ken N gave it a10:
This is awesome !! She is a great poet and 'America' clearly portrays the situation in America during the hurricanes (Katrina and New Orleans). This lady is a legend, she is my heroine.

tasha s gave it a10:
awesome awesome. Tracy has never put out a better album.

Ben C gave it a10:
Just as good as the other 7 - if not slightly better!

feriautus gave it a6:
I really wish I liked it more. Perhaps because "Change" is such a bliss, the rest of the album falls a little flat. With the exception of "Never Yours" - a truly great song where she sings - beautifully: "Say I'm a saint of mercy, say I'm a whore..." She's unique, really. Strong yet fragile, harsh yet warm. It's always nice to see her around. Welcome back, Tracy.

Cole B gave it a10:
This is her best since her debut, I'm her biggest fan. So much soul and talent I could burst. Shut up if you don't like it!
