BobHJul 11, 2005Listening to the whole thing at once is a bit too much. But despite it being very (almost overly) sweet, it's a charming piece of work. Not all songs have to have huge amounts of meaning-sometimes they're just mindless fun. P.S. It's Barney, not Barnie. Just so you get your insult right.

BrandonS.Jul 29, 2004Hey Ryan, what connection do you have with Dan Smith just wondering. I don't see how these guys are a ripoff, but I would much rather listen to Danielson Fam.

RyanPMar 9, 2004for those who havent figured it out already......can you say danielson famile rip off? granted im biased due to a personal connection with Dan Smith but he should be given the admiration for inspiring this heap of crap!

starcatFeb 25, 2004This album is fun, it makes me laugh. Sometimes at it, but that's because I hate the Sun. Damned Sun.

BillDDec 30, 2003Are you kidding? This is entertainment? Am I the only one who agrees with Pete B? The Spree is Barnie for adults... actually - thats an insult to Barnie

Two-LaneBlacktopDec 19, 2003A little hippy-dippy, but irresistably fun and joyous. I don't think the Polyphonic Spree mind if you laugh at them or with them, as long as you're laughing.

CarolJOct 22, 2003This band makes a mockery of what they pretend to represent. Tim Delaughter needs to watch his ego before the entire world finds out what a joke him and his band is. He has treated many people badly on the rise to his fame. There is no sunshine in his parade.

PeteBJun 23, 2003This stinking piece pile of dog poo has the distinction of being the only CD, or tape, or l.p that I have ever returned to the shop. Don't believe the hype.
