    Oh No I Love You feels softer but it also is more adventurous and satisfying, the sound of a pop obsessive finally letting himself indulge in the weirder areas of his imagination.

    The result is a high;y accomplished and warmly uplifting country-soul album that easily holds its own amid both musicians' back catalogues. [Oct 2012, p.73]

    Burgess always wanted to be a country soul man, on this album he has done it. [Oct 2012, p.87]

    An album that sounds hushed, bucolic and carefully crafted. [Oct 2012, p.94]
  5. This is a sweet postcard from a man who still gives a shit about trying something new.

    An underplayed, subtle triumph, but a victory nonetheless.

    [Oh No I Love You presents] an appealing synthesis, particularly on Tobacco Fields, in which every instrument, and Burgess's unusually delicate voice, shiver between melancholy and joy.

    The result is exactly what I Believe wasn't: tasteful, sensitive and containing a fair few memorable tunes.

    The result is one of this year's most welcome collaborations. Definitely worth the ten-year wait.

    Much of this delightful album resonates with the sound of a man's ambition fulfilled.

    Oh No I Love You is a warm affair and a slightly more together reflection of Tim than I Believe was, and the accompanying remix album with cosmic re-works by the likes of Seahawks is a bonus too. This deserves to find itself in as many homes as possible.

    Far more stripped back than the Charlatans frontman's previous offerings, Oh No flits between affecting moments (the rather gorgeous 'Hours') and repetitive down-beaters ('A Case For Vinyl') that seem to go nowhere.
