    As warmly irresistible as the Feeling, the impossibly catchy 'Best Of Me' nods to Elton John's 'Your Song' and it's the finest moment here. [Oct 2008, p.150]
  2. Overall you're left with the aural equivalent of an unexpectedly comfy bed in a cheap hotel--relaxing, welcoming, unexpectedly pleasant, but eminently forgettable.

    This is music that was manufactured to be played everywhere except those places to which people go when they want to hear music. [Oct 2008, p.105]
  4. Hard-working hat-wearing ‘Had A Bad Day’ songwriter Daniel Powter’s third album is a bit of a mess when all’s said and done.
  5. Mojo

    A square-jawed, piano-based, falsetto-flecked collection of sediment sentiment. [Oct 2008, p.109]

    I bought both his self titled CD and loved it so I bought this on itunes. As luck would have it, the CD player in my car quit working so I I bought both his self titled CD and loved it so I bought this on itunes. As luck would have it, the CD player in my car quit working so I haven't had much chance to listen to this one. I thought it was great when I downloaded it. He is definitely one of the many underrated artists. Expand
