Entertainment WeeklyHis songs evoke Van Morrison, Tim Buckley, and Springsteen without descending into pastiche. [17 Mar 2006, p.114]
-
BillboardIt's only a matter of time before [this album] replaces Ray Lamontagne's "Trouble" as the best album Van Morrison never made.

MagnetIf Dunger is trying to shed the [Van Morrison] comparison, Here's My Song won't help matters. [#71, p.94]
-
Mercury Rev... mostly eschew their distinctive brand of chamber pop, scaling back the saturated psychedelic orchestral flourishes for something a bit more terrestrial. In doing so they’ve fashioned the perfect complement to Dunger’s emotional voice and poignant songs of love lost.

Paste MagazineThe mellower arrangements are impeccable and classy. [Apr/May 2006, p.101]

The New York TimesMr. Dunger's relentless introspection isn't for every mood; it could certainly be tough on a romance. But "Here's My Song" is just the album for a good wallow in yearning and obsession. [13 Mar 2006]
-
Unlike Dunger's previous albums, which tended to have a specific musical theme, there's a kind of scattered, everywhere at once quality to Here's My Song.
