5.0 out of 5 stars Great relaxing, rainy day album, March 20, 2009
By Craig (Brooklyn, NY) - See all my reviews
I first heard of Oren Lavie via the animated video for 'Her Morning Elegance' on YouTube. If you're a fan of Nick Drake, you'll like this. Nice mix of jazz & classical styles. Be sure to have a bottle of wine handy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good!, May 20, 2009
I found out about Oren Lavie through a friend, who showed me the video from the song "Her Morning Elegance". I was gratefully surprised when I bought this CD. The quality of the sound, the melodies and especially the lyrics have no comparison.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, March 14, 2009
By T. Taylor (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
One of my favorite albums of this year so far. Beautifully produced and put together...the acoustic guitar, the piano, the layering, you can really hear it come alive on a good stereo. His voice is sexy, and has a lot of texture. The songs stand on their own, each one is unique. He's not French, but this music reminds me a little of Charlotte Gainsbourg's 5:55 (my favorite album of last year.)

Maybe I'm not a lyrics person, but I haven't noticed what the other person was complaining about with the lyrics.

I purchased this album after hearing Oren on NPR (didn't even know about the youtube video!). His voice is hauntingly beautiful, backed by hypnotic instrumentals. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Music Video, OK CD
I bought this CD because I loved the Music Video (and song) "Her Morning Elegance." The rest of the CD was okay, but that is by far their best song.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Beautiful.
I heard this on Chris Douridas' show "New Ground" on KCRW. One clicked it before the song was even finished.
