5.0 out of 5 stars Truly Special Album, February 1, 2000

Powerful melodies and choruses punctuate these beautifly-written songs with a passion that is rarely heard. The last 1/4 of the CD is impeccable and the first third is merely great. If you're not looking to do any break-dancing and you appreciate a superbly-crafted song that grows on you each time you hear it - buy this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not treading water, November 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Beauty Becomes More Than Life (Audio CD)

Not as fast or as rocking as "Grand Parade", this new one has more mellow songs but almost all lead up to F&Ws patented soaring choruses. A few songs employ dance beats to suprisingly good affect. Interestingly, the singer's accent, unnoticeable on previous records, is quite pronounced on many of the songs here. All in all, it's a great but different album by one of the most unjustly ignored bands out there. Nice to see they're not just treading water.

5.0 out of 5 stars Give it 3 runs through, and it won't leave your CD changer, October 2, 2000

Pretty exciting CD! I loved Plenty Times, and Something Happened to Me the first listen, but then set it aside for a few weeks. Then, I gave it a couple more turns, and found that the last half of the CD is absolutely creative genious. I sing along with most songs. They have another CD called "Glass coming out tomorrow, and I can't wait to see what they do next!"
