1-5 of 6 reviews of This Desert Life - Counting Crows

Stunning.

Advantages: Easy listening, beautifully written
Disadvantages: A bit depressing

...a huge Crows fan so this review will no doubt be a little
biased.

The album contains 10 tracks all of which I really enjoyed.
I think my favourite tracks are "Hangingaround", "Amy hits the atmosphere"
and "Colourblind".

'This Desert Life' is in the usual style of Counting Crows, which fans will be used
too.

All the words are written by Adam ...
...If you've never tried Crows this is a great album to start with.
The musicality behind it is great as are the words, which are often moving and
touching.

The only disadvantage with this album, is that it is quite short and I couldn't get
enough.

" If I could make it rain today
And wash away this sunny day down to the gutter
I would
Just to get a change of pace

Superb follow up

Advantages: Excellent follow up, much lighter than the other two albums
Disadvantages: None

...to get into and enjoy this album if you were not a Counting Crows fan, as with all of their albums enjoyment is only fully realised from prolonged and repeated listening. However this would not stop me from recommending this album to everybody - go for it and buy it, listen to the feeling in the lyrics and the music and then lets campaign to get more Counting Crows music on the radio!!! ...

The Best Yet

Advantages: Great Songs
Disadvantages: None

...all there previous stuff but this is the best yet. Where the other albums have good and bad patches (of atleast one or two songs) this stays good throughout. From the up tempo Hanging Around to the hidden secret track this is pure quality. It has just about everything, from the haunting colorblind to the strange 'Mr Robinsons cadilac dream' to the clever lyrics of 'Mrs Potters Lullaby'. If your already a counting crows fan then it's a must, if not ...

Buy It. Now.

This ablum is brillant. I hadn't really heard of the counting crows before I bought their album but I very glad I did buy it. All the songs are excellent and each one is new and different. Each song doesn't copy the last and has it own unique sound. The musicanship is good and the instruments are played well. There are no bad songs on the album, I liked each and every one of them and I listen to the album all the time. The album has songs for any ...

I wish I was a Counting Crow

Advantages: lots of great tunes and more fantastic vocals
Disadvantages: a bit more unplugged than normal

...a girl You'll like this if - you like a bit of angst, you have other Counting Crows albums, you like silly lyrics Listen to - on your own Another great release by this band. This is not their best album but is still a fabulous peice of work. The lyrics on most of this album make absolutely no sense but if that isnt the sort of thing to bother then you will love them. This album features the song 'Colourblind' as featured in the film Cruel Intentions. ...

Good - but not their best

Advantages: Consistent throughout
Disadvantages: Not as stunning as previous albums

...reviews i have seen about this album, it is good, and don't get me wrong, i would recommend it to anyone. However, when you try and compare it to the great 'August and Everything After' you will see that Counting Crows have not really progressed, and may have actually regressed into a more commercial sound. This is by no means a disaster, as i am sure it will get them more of the credit they thouroughly desreve, but this album is less memorable ...
...album as a whole. If you are off to buy your first Counting Crows album, make it 'August and Everything After', then go out and buy the rest, this included. You will not regret it and will have many a song in your head for months and years to come. ...

CANDY FROM A BABY

Advantages: Possibly the bands finest record to date.
Disadvantages: None. Nadda. Zip.

surely be ignored by UK radio anyway, but hopefully Irish radio will have sense if it gets what it should get, i.e. a single release. 5. GOODNIGHT L.A. (4:17) “I’ve been up for 38 hours / And it don’t look like sleep’s coming soon” are words that sum up a mellow lethargic song, seemingly about insomnia. But there is more to this song than ideas of sleep, the chorus is simply beautiful as Duritz sings ‘What brings me down is love / ‘Cause I can never get enough / Never get enough of love”. Lyrics like this are exactly what made This Desert Life such an empty record, devoid of the depth. Unlike Weezer’s Rivers Cuomo, Duritz has back-tracked to the persona lyrics that were the hallmark of CC’s first two records. This is classic Counting Crows. 6. BUTTERFLY IN REVERSE (2 ...

Review of Hard Candy - Counting Crows

We All Want Something Beautiful

Advantages: Beautiful lyrics, beautiful melodies. Gets right under your skin and into your heart.
Disadvantages: Can become sullen and monotone for those who don't like slowpaced songs.

Counting Crows always provide my soundtrack to Autumn. And Winter, when I think about it. But I never listen to their albums in the summer months because they simply don’t fit. Their music is melancholy, filled with poetic, middle-American melodies and eloquent words that are worthy of an episode of Dawson’s Creek or Party of Five. Which is quite fitting, because their work has been played in both TV shows. Other songs of theirs that feature on soundtracks include The Ghost in You on Clueless (hmm) and the wonderful heart-string-puller Colorblind on Cruel Intentions (the one that gives great piano). August and Everything After (A&EA) is Counting Crows' first album. It was followed by Recovering the Satellites, Across a Wire and the most recent album release, This Desert Life. I was fortunate enough to see Counting ...
