I loved Sandi's first CD, which I picked up after I heard "I Wish I Was a Punk Rocker" in Starbucks. Of the many songs on there, only one didn't really grab me. Here, on her follow up CD, it's a similar story. I don't feel that I've been grabbed by as many songs as the first, but when she does connect, I'm hooked.

My favorite track is "Last Picture House". Tells a nice story. Devil's Beat, Saturday Night, Beatbox, and Remote Control Me are 5 star songs for me.

There are no bad songs, from either CD, in my opinion. Just some are better than others. It was worth paying a few dollars extra for the import. I'm glad I made that decision.

Similar in tune with her first album, SMILE IT CONFUSES PEOPLE, it feels like Sandi Thom brings old school good-hearted pop back from the days that were AMERICAN BANDSTAND. The album reminds me of people happily dancing in the streets without a care in the world. To me, it's catchy and jolly -- enjoyable music with rockin' beat. However, to some... it may seem too old school (as my friend commented to me while I had it playing in the car). If you enjoyed her first album, you'll be sure to enjoy this second.

I loved Sandi's first album "Smile...It Confuses People" but I think this album is even better. The songs are a slightly different style, which I like, and the mood is overall nostalgic, like the first album, which I love. The tracks have catchy beats and amazing lyrics, and there isn't a bad track on the album, although I do find "Human Being" a little irritating at times.
Overall, a great album from a great artist that should get much more publicity here in the States than she does.

The first track Devil's Beat is a funky tune and got me hooked on Sandi Thom the first time I heard her perform on BBC America. The rest of the album follows suit with great vocals and well-written songs. Fun soulful music, I find it thoughtful, upbeat, new and refreshing, her music is a mix of genres. It's worth buying the import. This is my second Sandi Thom and won't be my last!
