BEST ALBUM OF 2003 BY FAR..pure heart and soul was put into this album..makes me feel happy and puts me in a great mood ... also makes you want to dance.... in this crazy world WE NEED MORE MUSIC LIKE THIS!!! these artists have got what it takes to become one band...only complaint i have is that it ends to soon:( lets hear it for the postal service... they delivered a great message and sound to me. I will be waiting for postal service to deliver me many, many, many more c.d.'s in the near future!!!! thanx guys for one of the best musical experiences of my life!!!! … Expand

AWESOME!!!The best!

lovely, just lovely.

there only one thing to say about this cd rock.............simple rock

if u can find a better cd than this one i want u to tell me please cause I will kill for it cause "Give up" is an ten track long orgasm that i just don't want to stop

...rates on my scale "off-the-chart"...I give it an "11"! "Such Great Heights" is nothing less than a masterpiece;it's nice to know there are others who also live in the "heights" of this dream song of love and life. Beyond thanks to the artists for bringing it thru...

this cd is ridiculous. the whole thing rules. please make another disc.

The best synthpop I've heard in years!

Simply Awesome... I don't want to get down. Everything looks perfect from far away. 10 track journey through many emotions. Thanks postal service!

Better than good so much emotions but i still perfer dath cab!

I have listened to other music since I found the Postal Service three months ago, but I would rather have been listening to PS. It's the most fulfilling sound I have ever heard. I plan to pay these guys to make more myself if I ever get rich.

i really never liked techno..pop...dance...but i absolutely LOOVE this cd...they are so great..its beautiful music

There is something about the music... it's great

Very beautiful, subtle music, especially This Place is a Prison and Nothing Better. Such Great Heights is also a great pop song.

This album is the best I have ever heard. Nuff said.

Don't be told this is depressing - this is dreamy hope at its best. The combination of Gibbard's naive, innocent lyrics and voice and Tamborello's sophisticated electronica beats mix into something wonderful. I've recommended this to so many people - and now you too!

LOVE IT!!! it's the best music for me so far

When you put Ben Gibbard and Jenny Lewis (Two of the best voices in indie rock) together along with the infectious beats of Jimmy Tamborello, only good things will come out of it

Highly addictive stuff that's already starting to spawn off copy-cats ( Digital Ash...).

Gibbard needed something. This was it.

Put it this way, its been in my car for 2 years!

So I normally reserve my '10s' for Sufjan Stevens and..well that's about it but I must say that Give Up most definitely deserves it. There truly isn't a weak link in the chain. To the contrary of what some critics say, I believe this is a classic and a touchstone in electronica/indie pop music.

I really enjoy this album-it has the perfect balance of indie edge, but also has a soft side to it. Jolly good gents!

ben gibbard = brilliant. love him love him love him. what amazing music

Great to listen to on long night drives. Perfect song to place in a mix for a girl you like.

As a rock DJ, I recieve many promotional CDs. This is by far one of the best albums I have come across in a long time. The mix of synthetic melodies and ear-capturing vocals is a perfect combination with the thoughtful, unordinary lyrics. This album is poeticly beautiful.

This is definately one of my new favorite cds.

This album is brilliant..amazing. It makes you fel like you're floating. Makes you want to cry, makes you want to dance. Makes you want to sing. It's incredible.

an absolute addiction. The only problem with the disc arises when you ask what will happen if they don't make another. 3 hours with this and you'll have the month's music sorted.

They got such an awesome sound.

Awesome...

Absolutely amazing. The Postal Service can take you to a plane that is..beyond reality...the depth and heights of this music is incredible. You cannot pass up on this album. "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight" is one of the most incredible songs I have ever heard and probably ever will. These guys deserve their props.

Really, I can't imagine how this album could be much better. I highly recomend drinking a decent bottle of red wine, lighting some candles and letting yourself get taken away by this album. Enjoy

if i could give this cd an 11 i would, shit ya

give up is one of the greatest albums i have ever heard. ever time i listen to one of the songs it sounds just as amazing as the first time i heard it.

I love this CD. It is my drug.

Absolutely fantastic.

the postal service is amazing! its addicting i just have to listen to it. i know no other that can come close to the postal service

i absolutely love this album. i enjoy to listening to a variety of music and albums, mixing things up... but there was a 3 week period where this was all i listened to. magnificent duo.

It was an immediate attraction from hearing clips in some great indie films such as wicker park, imaginary heroes and the sweetfilled lyrics of such great heights whispered from iron and wine in garden state. Who is this? what is this?!?!?! I MUST HAVE IT. mmm my most precious cd in my collection. the one that never lets me down and cant seem to stay away from my player. The lyrics are so true but spoken in terms not most commonly used.i had never heard anything so unique and i indulge more in the postal service than i do with Gibbards death cab.… Expand

Best voice ever, lyrics that do mean something, and addictive rhythms.

Brilliant!

One of the best album i know from genius

Not only is the technopop beat addictive, but the vocals blend wonderfully into each song. Absolutely amazing.

Gibbard has the best voice ever. The music is perfect and every song on the CD is great. It's one of the most consistantly good CDs I've ever heard. You can listen to it alot, it's hard to get tired of. Death Cab is at the same level. People that complain about the lyrics need to buy a dictionary and actually pay attention to what he's saying!

i hate dance music, but this is possibly the most beautiful collection of songs i've heard. can't stop listening to it

Simply put, this album is the most charming synth pop album in many years. The catchy melodies perfectly match the adorable lyrics, and the experience is utterly irresistable. I love this album...

Beautiful, Brilliant, New. Delicious. For those of you who enjoy the poppy version of techno and the heartwrenching, dreamy lyrics of emo, Postal Service is what its all about. Give Up is one of the best albums of the year

by far the greatest cd of 2003!

One of the best, most melodic cd's i have ever heard.

It is honestly the best cd I may have evr heard! Cant stop listening to it. Gets better every time

this cd is great, absolutly amazing!

The is the most amazing album. One of my favorites of all time!

great cd. better than death cab, even better then all time quarterback, although great, they are still no comparison. i hope they will make another disc, although, i dont think ill be holding my breath.

Just introduced to this cd and it caught my ears. I love the synth and the beat machine. the melancholic melodies and harmonies. present feelings with an '80's flavor.

best indie pop album for 2003

I love this CD-- I can relate to all of the songs so well its the perfect emo cd and u have to check out their new single Be Still My Heart its great

I can't stop listening to this CD. It's definitely the best I have heard in a long time. Love Ben Gibbard's voice and coupled with the synth style of Jimmy Tamborello, the package is superb!

one of the best

One great pop song after another. Every time I turn my back it's found it's way back in the CD player. Pure osmosis.

Simple often means better. This album shows this at a new level. One of the few albums I can listen to again and again without skipping tracks. Simply the best there is in indi/electronica music.

Great album

Unmistakably amazing...

This cd has been in my daily for well over 9 months now, and no sight of it not being there anytime soon.

The Postal Serviceâ

Give Up is really different. Nothing you'll ever hear. It's a beautiful album. Ben Gibbard's smooth lyrics and vocals go perfectly with the pop synth beats. The opener "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight" is a wonderful track to start the album off with. "Sleeping In" and Such Great Heights" Are also great songs. Each song really stands out. All In All, The tracks are amazing and the synth beats will stay in your head. A-… Expand

One of the few albums I still regularly listen to after nearly 5 years of owning it. I'm so glad I found this; I only wish I'd found it earlier. Brilliant.
