5.0 out of 5 stars This is a great record!, October 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Worldwide (Audio CD)

I don't get the negative comments here. This album is fantastic. I started with Amplified Heart (THE place to start) and began working back through the collection (first "Idelwild", then "Acoustic" and then "Worldwide"). This is a satisfying record. Don't give me this crap that it doesn't live up to their other stuff, because it does. I defy you to listen to "Talk to me like the Sea" or "Twin Cities" and tell me this record doesn't have a place in your collection. I guess that people are reticent to rate every record by a particular artist as brilliant, but I haven't come across one yet I haven't loved(haven't gotten "Tempermental" yet. Walking Wounded had it's moments, but I'm not as hip on the new sound as a lot of other people). By the way, "You Lift Me Up" should be played at every wedding.

5.0 out of 5 stars Happy to be...home., November 5, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Worldwide (Audio CD)

I strongly recommend this CD if you liked Amp-Heart. It is solid , smooth, emotional, and has a kick as well. I think as time goes by listeners will realize this CD was anything but a step back. On the contrary the piano, soft guitars and hint of drum machines is so well balanced that one listen through is never enough. I won't be like the lover Tracy sings about in the farewell song, ...you always loved the sad songs, like you loved it when I lost...So I don't tell you when I'm happy, 'cause it only makes you cross. Man that's good. And I'm happy I own WORLDWIDE.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful overlooked gem!, April 24, 2005

Distant Voyageur "Nicholas Computer" (Io) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Worldwide (Audio CD)

I can't understand how this wonderful album has languished in obscurity since it's release 14 years ago. "Worldwide" is arguably my favorite album by Tracey and Ben during their pre-dance incarnation and for so many reasons. The title is absolutely perfect as it aims to bring up images of places all over the globe and it succeeds with songs like "Twin Cities", "Frozen River" and the heavenly "Talk To Me Like The Sea" (Love the title too). This is highly recommended and is a classic in my book!
