robinvMar 22, 2003take a blender...throw in your first love affair, your angst of reaching adulthood, your reminiscence of your youth, triumphs and tragedies, a little bit of bob dylans influence, with a sense of humor....it would come out sounding somewhat like this album.......

DanielleCDec 21, 2002I love this album. It's my first Joseph Arthur album and now I'm ordering the earlier ones. His lyrics just fit into everything in life.
