HannahNov 10, 2005This is an album that comes from a talented group of people. Those who boo it have obviously no idea where real talent comes from, infact i dare to whether they have ever listened to a single note of talent? this is a great cd from a great band!

[Anonymous]Aug 2, 2005An absolutely sublime sounding debut album. A trully mature first offering from a group I expect to hear more from in the future.

jasoneAug 5, 2005This is some of the best music I've probably ever heard. Complex songs that sound really simple and beautiful, and although they obviously draw influences from sixties music they sound unlike anyone else I've ever heard.

RicNJun 18, 2005Perfect summer music. Surprised that they have made the best track (Hymn To Her) a secret track at the end...

RodrigoVJul 13, 2005I've considered this album, since now, one of the best of the year. I`m happy that we still have bands like this.

SimonGMay 29, 2006Blows me away every time. I was sucked in by the Forever Lost single; was not disappointed by the album. Listen to it everyday. Love's a Game is the best one.

AngelloCApr 16, 2007showing us that music styles never expire, maybe it sounds like 60's but its perfect to take us away, specially today, when everybody with stress need it

RolOct 9, 2005Excellent, well-written, well-sung, unpretentious( and maybe this is why people are having a go at it) collection of songs most people will enjoy. Close analysis of music is pointless it either moves you or not, and I'm confident it will move more people than it will turn off.

MattJSep 1, 2005This is a great record, "ahh this song reminds me of the summer of 2005" is what we will all be saying for years to come, a true summer pop classic, to be enjoyed because its enjoyable!, the reason it isnt a 10, is because im afraid its getting overplayed and is possibly going to be a great album ruined yet again

CaptainFishySep 5, 2005Gotta say......after catching this band during the 2005 summer festival season.......I aquired the album.....and it is quite simply a masterpiece for its time.

A record that will endure beyond this year, this decade and the rest.
-
Nothing quite prepares you for the sheer beauty of The Magic Numbers' music.
-
The songwriting falls a couple of times too many into timid generalities about love and loss; the melodies, though lovely, are sometimes interchangeable.
