5.0 out of 5 stars Belgium's Pride and Joy, June 16, 2000

By	Paul Allaer (Cincinnati) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

5 years after its release, "Paradise in Me" remains a thoroughly enjoyable record. K's Choice stormed onto the US music scene with its breakthrough hit "Not An Addict" (which has been misunderstood and in actuality is an anti-drug song). The album is a top-notch "alternative rock" CD, starting with "Not An Addict", but containing many more instant recognizable hooks like "A Sound Only You Can Hear", "Mr. Freeze", "Paradise in Me" and the show-stopper at all of K's Choice's concerts, the sing-along "Something's Wrong". While K's Choice worked the US tour circuit hard, they never could really quite make it "big" in the US. Nevermind, this album marked the band at its top, and remains the Belgian band's pride and joy. Give it a listen, and you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars airy, February 5, 2003

By	ellen (Spokane, WA) - See all my reviews

I bought this CD just two days ago. I had downloaded Not an Addict and, just like everyone else, had listened to it on repeat nonstop, especially in winter. I finally went and bought the actual album and I am so happy that I did. Paradise in Me is a surprisingly eclectic album...though often the melodies and the lyrics linger around the same notes and ideas, the final product of each song is intricately unique.

My favorite song on the album is My Record Company. I am surprised that no one else seems to like it so much. But all in all, each song is absolutely beautiful. Sarah's lullying vocals are accented beautifully now and then by her brother's voice. It's a frickin masterpiece, my friends. It is the perfect album for winter.

5.0 out of 5 stars K's choice combines just enough grit to off set the mellow., October 29, 1999

By A Customer

K's Choice speaks of real life--even the not so pretty side of it. They don't shy away from the truth and they let it come in haunting melodies. They sound as if they have been through each experience--there is an honesty to it, that today's other hits lack. I recommend this music to anyone who lives in the real world and wants something better.
