4.0 out of 5 stars Oh I'm High Alright, September 22, 2000

I'm the biggest Ashcroft fan, as big as it gets, though I have to admit that some of his solo work sounds exactly like country music, which I can't bare to listen, Money to burn and xxyy are no exceptions, if I turn either of these tracks on I get the feeling that I'm driving through Kentucky or something. The reason I give this single 4 stars is because of the magical, sensational and inspirational Leave Me High, it's a beautiful, life, out of this world, type of song, which definetely leaves you high. I think Ashcroft needs to write some songs with guest bands, maybe U2, Sting or even Travis.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great B-sides, December 17, 2003

Money to burn wasn't my favorite song off "Alone Again..." - in fact I kinda dislike that song. But Xxyy and Leave me High are great songs that any fan of Ashcroft's first album will enjoy. I consider them better than many of those songs as a matter of fact! Buy this - or better yet if you can find a domestic version, by that and save some dough.

4.0 out of 5 stars A treat for Ashcroft fans, July 21, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Money to Burn (Audio CD)

The b-sides on the "Money To Burn" single would fit nicely alongside anything on Ashcroft's "Alone With Everybody" album. "Leave Me High" is the stronger of the two bonus tracks, effectively mixing some gorgeous strings into the composition. "XXYY" on the other hand, is driven by acoustic and slide guitar. Alas, "Money To Burn" is simply the album version of the song but the real treats here are the non-album tracks. This is an essential addition to any hardcore Richard Ashcroft fan's collection!
