JasonE.Sep 2, 2007Gorgeous. Brings warmth to the electronic pop genre reminiscint of Madonna's Ray of Light. His influences shine through, but Hayes' greatest accomplishment is getting across a vision that is distinctly his. Celebtratory and heartbreaking in spades, and always inspired.

SueSSep 3, 2007My favourite album by a long way. I love the variety of styles, the experimentation, the digging into his past. I can relate to much of what Darren has written, and many of the melodies are really catchy which is a bonus!

MikeL.Sep 4, 2007Darren Hayes is simply brilliant, he has left the commercial success of Savage Garden and has explored the realm of his music in a self spiritual endeavor, I love this ablum beginning to end, This album picks up right where "The Tensin & The Spark" left off....Dark, melodic, rock, techno & a hint of Justin Timberlake....Lyrically masterful & music to back it up!

KEVOBSep 6, 200715 great tracks, why was 'Sing to Me' not put out as the first single, is beyond me. Takes a few listens, a real grower. Some 9 odd dross tracks though.'

EricaCOct 13, 2007This is an album that grew on me after a few listening. I think he really made a brave decision to release two discs with such highly personal material. It's nice when an singer is able to express their artistic side with their music.

HalJ.Aug 26, 2007Not as good as his last effort, The Tension And The Spark, but still better than pretty much any other pop album out there right now.

AlanB.Sep 23, 2007I adore this two sided album. Especially this 3 beautiful songs: Sing To Me, Casey and Step Into The Light. And about Bombs Up In My Face, what he was thinking?

Nov 19, 2012Real freaking music. Very heartwarming and cold at times, he can display various emotions with poetic and obscured lyricism to the fullest. One of the greatest artists for a generation.

Entertainment WeeklyThis might make for nice pregaming music before an evening out clubbing in Ibiza, but for the rest of us, the effects can be a bit savage on the ears. [24 Aug 2007, p.133]

Hayes has hedged his bets, and it shows. Somewhere amongst these 25 tracks is probably a halfway decent album. It's just swamped.

Expecting two brilliant albums in a row is a lot, but when flashes of This Delicate Thing We’ve Made indicate he’s more than up to delivering, you get disappointed when there’s so much well-intentioned but patience-shredding filler between the gems.
