5.0 out of 5 stars
DB's best album,
By
This review is from: Whatever You Say Say Nothing (Audio CD)
A lot of DB fans didn't like this album -- a huge departure from the band's early stuff -- but "Whatever You Say, Say Nothing" is just brilliant, particularly "Bethlehem's Gate." This song alone should put frontman Ricky Ross among the pantheon of rock's greatest songwriters (Springsteen, Young, Dylan, Browne, et al). And "Fall So Freely Down" -- how many rockers have written an edgy but stirringly beautiful song about childbirth? Don't get me wrong: I loved the first albums -- "Raintown" and "Fellow Hoodlums" especially. But there's something about this album that just slaps the soul silly with raw beauty.

Good but moving away from what they did best,
By A Customer
This review is from: Whatever You Say Say Nothing (Audio CD)
I would put Deacon Blue's sound in with other groups such as 80's EBTG, Prefab Sprout,etc. I fell into them in 1991 while living in Germany. I picked up the hard to find double CD 'Ohh Las Vegas and that was love at first listen. They are melodic, treble filled with poetic words to strenghten the sound. Whatever you say... was apparently their last offering and it had that big america production rock and roll sound and it lost some or most of that musty closeness that earlier works had. If you can find it grab Our Town their greatest hits and if you like this, go back and find all their early stuff. Bands don't sound like this anymore because the world is a changing. My life is better for having listend to Deacon Blue. The song Dignity, actually finds a way to bless the word musically. Unreal
