Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Almost as good as Humming!.......2003-07-02

w/ the addition of Lost On The Moon as the import bonus track, the album just barely lands below Humming w/ regards to the best DS album...

buy this album for LOTM alone! :)

5 out of 5 stars THIS IS ONE OF THE FINEST ALBUMS FROM LAST YEAR.......2003-05-11

... and it continues to burn like the very best "sleeper" hits.


Blinding lead single and should-have-been-a-hit, On a high, is the first reason to get this fourth album from alternative pin-up Duncan Sheik. A recent No.1 on the club charts -thanks to dramatic dance remixes, High is Sheik's pop-iest, most radio-ready track to date -even bolder and brighter than his breakthrough top 40 hit Barely Breathing. However, there is a lot more than that on this 13 track set.

Every song here radiates with quirky beauty and Sheik's spirit for good songwriting. As he did with Jewel on her Spirit album, Producer extraordinaire Patrick Leonard has helped Sheik sound more focused with a stronger, bolder production that has opened the songs up without compromising Sheik's low-key, meandering style. The almost-whispered Memento, a classic Sheik track, would never have hit the radar had it appeared on previous albums but here it shimmers with soul thanks to funky beats and a playful guitar.

Inspired by love and bouyed by bright lyrics and the mostly upbeat production, Sheik has never sounded better. Saving the best to last, the brilliant Shine Inside leaves you desperate for more with it's ode-to-the-power-of-love chorus and soaring strings. Then hold on for the moody bonus gem Chimera, tagged on to the end of Track 12, and spend the extra $s on this Australian edition to get the dreamy, achingly beautiful fan favourite, Lost on the moon; it's worth it.
