Biography

NEIL Hannon claims to have written The Divine Comedy’s triumphant ninth album, “Victory For The Comic Muse”, more or less by accident. After touring extensively on the back of 2004’s “Absent Friends”, Hannon found himself, once back home in Dublin with his family, suffering the ennui common to those who’ve endured an intense period of being forced to listen to the sound of their own voice.

4.0 out of 5 stars A divine love of life, June 19, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Short Album About Love (Audio CD)
A Short Album About Love describes itself perfectly. Neil Hannon gives away in only seven songs all the complexity of love of any kind. Friendship and passion,bliss and pain, feelings are expressed just as well with words and music. With the usual baroque arrangements, and a modest arrogance, the bnad prooves that a pop song is not always a easy-to-write or easy-to-remember song, even if it's a love song. To those who liked Casanova more than to those who preferred Fin De Siecle, A Short Album About Love is a typic Divine Comedy album.

This review is from: Short Album About Love (Audio CD)
My current copy of this album is the third one I bought. I lent my first two to friends and they liked it so much I just had to let them have it.

5.0 out of 5 stars This album is all you need, August 1, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Short Album About Love (Audio CD)
"If you were a horse, I would clean the crap out of your stable, and never once complain."

A perfect hommage to Scott Walker- big ballads, big production, but no imitation - Neil Hannon has found his own voice, and exercises it quite exquisitely across 7 beautiful love songs- in a concept album worthy of Sinatra and Nelson Riddle. The ideal antidote to those of you who feared that Mr Hannon might be a misogynist - a grave misreading of the excellent "Casanova".

Truly moving~
