5.0 out of 5 stars The Real Deal, December 13, 2004
This is my most played album over the last two years. Andrew Peterson is in a league of his own with his blend of lyrics and music. He is in a class with Rich Mullins. Clear to Venus is impressive to say the least. There isn't a bad track and the hidden track is worth the price of the CD. Mary Picked the Roses was an unreleased Rich Mullins song put to a new melody. Isn't it Love is upbeat. Loose Change is profound if from a penny's point of view. Venus is touching. Great cover of Why Walk When you can Fly?

Rare is the day when you can actually like every song on a CD and Andrew Peterson hasn't had a bad album. GET THEM ALL---you will not be disappointed. His new Christmas CD is definitely worth getting too. It is not your traditional songs, but an incredible journey through Scripture leading up to Christ.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Acoustic Music, December 24, 2003
By Chad Davies "Downhill" (Barnesville, GA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
While a number of people are familiar with Andrew Peterson's first album, Carried Along, his sophomore effort may actually be a better album. Continued from the first album are the heartfelt and insightful lyrics and rich acoustic music that helps Peterson's music rise up from the muck that is much of secular and Christian mainstream pop.

What lifts this album to a higher level in my mind is Peterson's willingness to speak more clearly to the issues in his personal life. What you get is sense of a real person working out his faith through his art and in his life. Song range from the hopeful "No More Faith" to the whimsical tune taken from a Jesus told called "Loose Change". My favorites are "Isn't it Love", "Venus" and the two song track called "Why Walk When You Can Fly".

For those who liked Peterson's first album, get this work. You won't be disappointed at all. There is no second album letdown here and you get drawn more deeply into the artist's faith though the music.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEAUTIFUL, July 10, 2004
andrew peterson's sophmore album is by all means his best and most beautiful work, slightly better than 'love and thunder'.
i love it most of all because i find this cd just so comforting. whether it's a stormy, rainy day outside, or i've had a hard time lately and am really stressed, i can always put this cd on and all my troubles fade away and my faith is always reassured.
some folks might complain about his kind of nasal, unusual voice but to me its just perfect for the music he plays. 'song and dance' is utterly undescribable it is so beautiful. i love the picture it paints of my favorite Psalmist, David.
overall it's definitely some nice, sometimes haunting, melodic, folk/bluegrass, acoustic music.
one other note i like is the excellent instrumentation throughout. if you love folk music i would recommend....hell i would recommend it even if you hate music its that good.
