5.0 out of 5 stars One of the finest song writing doodles ever., February 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

This is a stunning collection of songs written with such imagination and intensity that you can easily overlook the 'basement quality of the recording. Checkout 'Aluminium Beach" on disk 1; and virtually every song on disk 2. An almost perfect album.

Have you ever gotten the feeling that a lunatic was making fun of you? You know, their words don't quite fit their tone, they take you 'round a verbal curve too fast, and make you feel an odd shade of uncomfortable? You want to react, either by walking away or confronting the source, but you're just too damn entertained by it?

Me, too.

This review is from: The Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

This is a decent overview of Babybirds better album tracks.
Don't go by the title "Greatest Hits".
From 1996-2000 Babybird had 9 songs that made the British charts
including "You're Gorgeous" which hit number 3.
None of those 9 charting songs are included here.
Very irritating and misleading title.
This should have been called "Babybird picks his favorites"
because this collection is neither a collection of his "Greatest Hits"
or "His Best Of" because such a collection
would have some of those charted hits.
Docked a star for misleading the music public.
