5.0 out of 5 stars Where are the lyrics?, December 28, 2003
By A Customer
Like REM, Black Box Recorder seem to have a tradition of not having the lyrics in their album inlays. I had to print the lyrics for their two previous albums off of the Internet, but I can't seem to find the full lyrics for this new album which is really a shame because lyrics are essential with this band. This is the only complaint I have, though. Passionoia is pretty similar to Black Box Recorder's previous album, The Facts Of Life, so if you enjoyed it you'll love this. As usual, the sharp writing team of Haines & Moore keep exploring the beauty of the United Kingdom with an ever-present edge of irony & observation. Here they focus on the country's obsession with the royal family, the death of Princess Diana & rich celebrities. "These Are The Things" was a clever choice for a first single & it's entirely our loss that it didn't get any exposure. "Andrew Ridgley" evokes sweet memories from the 1980's (even if you didn't like Wham!). Basically all of the songs are equally good so I don't wanna do a song by song review as the album is really short & sweet & I want my review to reflect that. Buy this if you like The Facts Of Life, Britpop or Britain in general.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lulling pretty vocals but look out for smart lyrics!, March 5, 2006
My first impression of Black Box Recorder with England Made Me was that Sarah Nixey has a sweet soothing voice and on subsequent releases like The Facts of Life the background music is often sweet and dreamy.However it turns out it all cleverly makes the cynical and clever songs go down smooth.On the spellbinding Passionoia this British group creates spellbinding music from the addictive These Are The Things which will have you singing along to The New Diana(I want to be the new Diana lying on a yacht reading photomagazines visiting the shore occassionally)to the gorgous British Racing Green.Passionoia is that rare creation...a cd that is both beautiful and smart enough to reward your attention to the words.
