Add Yellowcard to that very short list of spirited pop-punk acts that made the transition from an indie to a major label and got better in the process. The SoCal by way of Florida band's brand of strident, post-emo pop has only improved with each release, even as their sound grew more anthemic and radio-friendly (and reached double platinum status). Their first album since founding guitarist Ben Harper split the group, Paper Walls has been described by the band themselves as a sort of group therapy attempt, an effort to "tear down obstacles and heal old scars" amongst the five members. Unsurprisingly, the lyrics are direct and honest, while they've broadened their sonic palette to allow a tad more dissonance in with their urgent and propulsive pop-punk. The songs "Shadows and Regrets," "Paper Walls" and "Five Become Four" mix thoughtful lyrics with a sped-up, catchy violin in a way that's both "mature" and the ideal soundtrack to your next extreme sports adventure. --Mike McGonigal

Amazon.com

The album title Paper Walls comes from the song of the same name, which begins "Let's burn a hole so we can climb out of these paper walls in this empty house." It's a reference to the barriers that built up between the band members over the years and everyone's desire to tear down the obstacles and heal old scars.

"If you really love each other as much as we do, you want to knock those walls down and get back to the place where you enjoy being with each other and making music together," says Key. "The song is basically saying let's get back out there and remember why this is important to us, why we love being on stage and why we love making records."

Album opener "The Takedown" starts with a shot - an indelible guitar hook and ferocious drums charge forth as Yellowcard's trademark mix of airtight vocal harmonies, entwined guitar lines and flourishes of violin crackle with energy. "Fighting" brings together the band's many strengths - tight, melodic, propulsive riffs gather steam before launching into an epic, undeniable chorus. And bruised but beautiful lead single "Light Up the Sky" has an even more massive payoff, its refrain won't leave your head in this lifetime, but allows for some ringing dissonance beneath it all.

a great album.......2007-07-19

I am a huge ocean avenue and hated lights and sounds but when I saw this in the store I bought it hoping that they snapped out of the whiney emo punk sound that they tried out. I am glad I purchased it.
I like all the songs on this album except for a track where there is this old man talking through it, he sounds like he is under water. It was like a musical version of the notebook. But besides the talking it is a very good song.

Buy this album

not bad.......2007-07-19

it is deffinatly a rock album, not one full of emo junk. drummer is still amazing. good way to lighten up from all of the heavier rock. honostly, nothing sounds that different from ocean avenue, but if you've had that album for a couple years and know all those songs to well, paper walls is worth a few bucks

THANK YOU!.......2007-07-18

YES! I am so happy to finally have this album blasting through my speakers! I liked Lights & Sounds despite public outcry against it, although they could've toned down the politics. But forget that, Paper Walls is amazing! From front to back this CD has everything I've ever loved about Yellowcard, the violin is finally back in action and the drums are key on this cd. Most notably though, the songwriting is up to par to old school Yellowcard. This is definitely one of the best summer albums this year!

Paper Walls.......2007-07-17

I love the new album, it definatly sounds more like Ocean Avenue although I did like Lights and Sounds. My top three tracks would have to be Shadows and Regrets, Keeper, and Date Line ( I Am Gone). Go get it now, you won't be dissapointed!

from Staring Back to Yellowcard..........2007-07-17

Ryan, im so glad to see you still making music. Anyone out there that likes this record should check out Ryan's old band, Staring Back. These guys needed a great guitar player and song writer to keep them from ending up in the 99 cent bin. They found the perfect guy.

Shawn Colvin's fans are a dedicated and patient lot. They've had to be, to have waited five years for this new release and nearly six for the one before it. But she rewards the faithful with gems every time, and These Four Walls is no exception. Despite a label change to the more musically adventurous Nonesuch, after having been associated with Columbia since 1989, this is a typically low-key yet beautifully constructed set. Colvin again works with producer/songwriter John Leventhal, her musical collaborator for the past quarter-century, and that long-standing partnership pays off with 11 superbly crafted originals. Colvin's breathy voice conveys the emotion, yearning, sadness, and even the occasional joy and hope behind the melodies. As producer, Leventhal colors these songs with subtle textures, adding organ, brushed drums, and layered electric and acoustic guitars to bolster but never overwhelm the songs or Colvin's delicate yet defined vocals. It's a clean but never-slick sound, with enough edge and dynamics to reflect the nuances in the lyrics. Covers of the obscure Paul Westerberg track "Even Here We Are" and the Bee Gees' "Words"--the latter sounding like a demo, with just acoustic guitar, spare bass, and sparse piano--illuminate additional details in her approach. They round out one of Colvin's finest, most honest, and poignant collections. It's an album worth the extended wait. --Hal Horowitz

I am forever in love with Shawn.......2007-07-18

Daer Shawn,
My family met you in Jacksonville, Oregom. I am quite sure that you do not remember me or my wife and kids.
Your songs have inspired me to go on in life and do my best, regardless of the politics, both local and national.
Thanks for agreeing that Hilary Clinton is a bold faced liar and unworthy to even be a homestead senator in New York state.
There is an amazingly large group of American physicians that are planning to move to New Zealand if she is elected and when her destruction of the finest healthcare system in the world is destroyed.
Who can explain New York or for that matter even the east coast as a HOLE(pun intended).
The sooner she has a heart to heart with the lord, Jesus Christ(or Teddy Rooseveldt), the better.
I hope and pray that your daughter is happy wholesome and loving.
Warm regards,
Dr. Jim Morrow
P.S. Whenever your songs are on the radio or CD, my children smile, laugh in delight and want to know when they will see you again. Your concert in Jacksonville, Oregon left them with VERY happy memories of you
P.S.S. If Clinton is elected, plan on learning Farsi, Arabc, chinese, etc. in order to communicate with your new 3rd world "physician."
P.S.S.S.
You and your family are always welcome to stay with us, very quiet and peacefully for as long as you like.
P.s.s.s.s. My Granfather, Wiliam Sherman Morrow, earned his citizenship by commiting to be an indentured servant for 7 years, after those 7 years, he earned enough money to bring his family, including my DAD, to America to earn a decent living and, yes, he is the famous publisher. Very few people know of his initial plight to the states to become successful.

Disappointing.......2007-05-26

Seen her live. Have a couple of her albums. Disappointed with this one. I usually like cryptic lyrics, but what the heck is she talking about. I don't get most of the songs. Musically OK but lacks excitement. Her production partner is talented but all the songs are starting to sound the same. Gave it a couple listens and gave up.

Nothing But Sky.......2007-05-12

Shawn Colvin's "These Four Walls" is a good set, well worth the wait. Of my favorites, "Tuff Kid" pulses with Antoine Silverman's fiddle adding a nice touch, "So hey everybody at the old schoolyard, took it all the way & we took it hard; Did a lot of things make you feel alright; Said the kind of things keep you up at night." "The Bird" struts with a smart melody and Colvin's breathy vocals crosscutting with the edge of the lyric, "What I like about time is it don't ask why; What I like about love is it makes me cry; What I like about the bird is she don't need nothin' but sky." "Even Here We Are" has a gorgeous melody with Colvin's passionate voice, "Beautiful flower in your garden, but the most beautiful by far is the one growing wild in the garbage dump." The closer is a cover of the Bee Gees' "Words." Colvin's acoustic version contrasts with the orchestral production the Gibb Brothers employed & bares the emotional content of the track, making it stark & emotional. Other cuts like the opener "Fill Me Up" & "Cinnamon Road" are strong. It's nice to have Shawn Colvin back in form. Enjoy!

Best yet.......2007-05-02

I have enjoyed all of Shawn Colvin's work. This cd is special probably because of the change in label. The music is not so produced, less instruments, and therefore probably more personality. Shawn Colvin isn't someone that you can sit down and enjoy easily. It takes some listening to acquire a taste. Also her lyrics have an edge. Sometimes she takes that a bit too far. I am no puritan but do think the f word in the last three recordings is old. Perhaps she thinks it is a good luck charm. I would also object to the Bee Gees song. Shawn is a wonderful writer and she has no need to borrow songs that we have all heard too often. "Even Here We Are" is a wonderful song and in my opinion worth recording. Don't take so long the next time.

Evocative........2007-03-13

The CD cover of this release looks as if it were inspired by one of Tori Amos's dreams. But the sound of Shawn Colvin and "These Four Walls" is more Emiliana Torrini than Tori Amos.
The record has a folksy-pop beat. Beautiful, empowering vocals combine with a catchy tune to deliver to the listener one of the most upbeat, magical music experiences seen this century. Matters can become somewhat introspective from time to time.
"These Four Walls" the track, opens with the chilling statement: "I'm going to die in these four walls". It's the certainty and the apparent acceptance of fate in the vocals which will chill the blood. Yet, somehow, there's a slightly upbeat feel to this song. As if it represents an ode to something passed but not forgotten.

This record is atmospheric and eerie at times as it reaches towards the gothic.
This is not rock and it barely touches the conventions of pop.
The vocals want the gravitas and sheer gothic power of Tori Amos but they don't quite manage to achieve such an impact on the listener.
Instead, the songs remain powerful and beautiful but not earth shattering.
"These Four Walls", the album, is the soundtrack to an autumn night. Listen and escape into a world of wonder set to music. If you like your songs to be full of stories, this is the record for you.
The album is beautiful, evocative and powerful and, best of all, a hope for the future. More like this please. There's a feeling that both the sound and talent involved in the construction of this record are unique.

Just great Yellowcard.......2007-07-19

This album is just plain great, thats all i have to say. I've grown up with this band and they've tought me alot through the little things of just idk being a teenager or just growing up. their last two ablums have help in so many ways and this new one is as well. buy it and see them live there amazing

Awesome.......2007-07-18

Really great album mixing the best traits of the last two. It has the fun/funkyness of Ocean Avenue with the deeper and edgier sound of Lights And Sounds. Definitely a recomendation for anyone who's ever liked any of their songs.

Absolutely Fantastic Album!.......2007-07-18

If you liked the album "Ocean Avenue" you will love "Paper Walls"! From the very first song "Takedown" (featured in Madden 2008 by the way), to the last song "Paper Walls", every track sounds inspired and fleshed out making good use of the talents of each band member. Everything sounds great! The drums, the guitars, the singing and of course the trademark work on the violin.

One of my favorite tracks is "Dear Bobbie" which is about Key's Grandpa and his 58 year marriage to his wife. Ryan wrote great lyrics but hearing his Grandpa read the love letter is especially moving.

The DVD that comes with it includes 2 bonus acoustic tracks and some brief documentaries on the making of the CD. A great addiction to any fans collection.

Fantastic Yellowcard! This is your best album yet! Keep Rocking! And hurry and get back to Utah!

The careful burnishing of John Lennon's daunting legend usually obscures one telling fact: the former Beatle endured a long and troubling artistic slump in the mid-'70s. Indeed, his five-year retirement/house-husband phase may have been one of the shrewdest career moves he ever made. Cut in Los Angeles during his prolonged "lost weekend" estrangement from Yoko Ono, Walls and Bridges too often sacrifices the sublime for the ridiculous--that is, when it's not being altogether superfluous. Still, "Whatever Gets You Through the Night," Lennon's boisterous collaboration with Elton John, scored him his first No. 1 record as a solo artist, and compelling tracks like "Steel and Glass," "Going Down on Love," and "#9 Dream" belie the artistic genius Lennon was literally drowning in copious rounds of Brandy Alexanders during the period. --Jerry McCulley

ok but I prefer Macca.......2006-11-03

Some really nice tunes on here. #9 Dream is as good as anything Lennon ever wrote, but there are weak songs on here, namely 'whatever gets you through the night', which to me is a rambling, tuneless dirge and the awful 'ya ya'. Also 'what you got' is abslutely horrible. Still, worthy of a purchase, as there are a lot of melodic songs here, but I think Macca was better, particularly with his strong and more characteristic 'Venus and Mars' out around this time.

Jerry McCulley, the Amazon reviewer here misses the boat completely .......2006-09-04

Jerry McCulley has not listened to this album well... first of all.. this an extremely polished album... this album was not a lull in Lennon's musical career.. it is an exceptional album.. what a terrible misrepresentation of a Lennon masterpiece.. Jerry McCulley ought to be ashamed of himself.

John Comes Full Circle.......2006-07-31

On this outstanding album, John fends for himself, for the first time in his professional life without Yoko AND Paul. It also is one of his few albums that feature no other Beatle. His band is comprised of such "Fifth Beatles" as Klaus Voorman, Jim Keltner, and Nicky Hopkins. It seems he is now totally screamed out, and has had his say about political problems in the world. He has been stiffed by Yoko - and moves on now much more easily than he did, when dealing with the abandonment of his mother and father. He even has a little bit of Julian on the album.

He seems to be comfortable with himself - the music is accessible, with the expected depth. I have always considered it a letter he is writing to Paul, George, Ringo, Yoko, his fans - heck, even Cynthia and Julian.

#9 Dream connects with Beatles material in more ways than its title. It is one of the 10 or so best Beatles solo tracks, in terms of having a "Beatles" sound to it. "Nobody Loves You When You're Down and Out", is "Isn't It A Pity" written sideways. He seems to have the same need to write this as George had with his similarly-penned number. It is a continuation of the Beatles story. Songs like this allowed us to get to know the Beatles personally, and to be able to connect their problems in life with our own.

Steel and Glass, of course, is penance for his "Stick it, Paul" rant, "How Do You Sleep?" from Imagine. YaYa is a return to a Hamburg favorite.

In "God" John says "I was the Walrus", and "I don't believe in Beatles." On this entire album, John seems to say, "well, okay - maybe I am kind of a walrus, and well, maybe I do believe in a little bit of Beatles."

John's personal and professional development is shared with the world in his music. Walls and Bridges, like all of his albums, is a critical piece in that development. When listening to his music with that perspecive, I find it much more enjoyable.

I would encourage the two Beatles fans in the world that do not have this album, to go ahead out and purchase it.

His best release........2006-06-15

Forget what the critics say concerning his "lost weekend" period. The songs on this album are among his best written. #9 Dream, Steel and Glass, Bless You, When You're Down are among the best songs on this album. "Whatever Gets You through the Night" was his number 1 song co-written with Elton John, and as much as I like that song, it isn't even close to being the best on the album.

Buy it, you'll like it.

Good album.......2006-05-29

"Steel and Glass" was about Allen Klein who John was suing at the time. He was John's former manager and he lost his mother when he was young (like John) and had a "New York walk and a New York talk." I really liked the song "Whatever gets you through the Night" which John didn't really like too much. This is one of John's better post-Beatle albums. Still, with all the drinking and drugs John took during this period, the album lacks the care and polish of his work with the Beatles.

At times, Jeff Tweedy's score for Ethan Hawke's Chelsea Walls sounds like an uptown, jazz-infused take on Ry Cooder's Paris, Texas soundtrack. Atmospheric, moody, and, at times, abrasive, Tweedy's electric guitar instrumentals are both memorable and haunting, ready to erupt into distortion at any moment. Wilco's "Promising" is stripped down and rootsy, while Robert Sean Leonard's two tracks ("The Lonely," "Softly and Tenderly Jesus Is Calling") are lo-fi, slightly out-of-tune gems. But the highlight of this soundtrack may belong to jazz vocal legend Jimmy Scott. His take on John Lennon's "Jealous Guy" is a classic: understated, bluesy, and filled with soul. --Jason Verlinde

Customer Reviews:

Basically the first Jeff Tweedy solo album.......2005-10-11

This is basically the first Jeff Tweedy solo album, although someday, who knows, I hope not, he might fire John Stirratt from Wilco (the only original Wilco member besides Jeff) and we'll discover Wilco was a Jeff Tweedy solo project all along.
The instrumental tracks on this album are very good, and feature good, jabbing guitar from Jeff Tweedy, and good, experimental percussion from Glenn Kotche, Wilco's outstanding drummer and percussionist.
"Promising" is wonderful Wilco song, downtempo, and "When the Roses Bloom Again" is a good outtake from the Billy Bragg and Wilco "Mermaid Avenue" sessions.
"Jealous Guy" is a John Lennon cover sung in a high, raspy voice by Jimmy Scott, and doesn't do much for me other than interrupt the flow of the album.
"The Lonely One" a cover of Wilco song, covered by actors Robert Sean Leonard & Steve Zahn is a sad, simple version of that song, made sadder if you've seen the movie this soundtrack is for and know the fate of the character singing it.
"Softly and Tenderly Jesus Is Calling" is another nice guitar/vocals cover by Robert Sean Leonard and fits the feel of the rest of the album.
Overall, the instrumentals and "Promising" are the best tracks, and make this album worth owning for any Wilco fanatics out there. I like the soundtrack better than the movie it's from, and find it more interesting.

Bummer.......2005-10-03

I like Tweedy, most Wilco and all Uncle Tupelo stuff. This album I don't care for because there are really no solid tracks on it other than "Promising".

Worth the cost just for..........2005-07-07

"when the Roses bloom again" a 5 star song if there was ever one - The rest of the CD is average by that song is GREAT

beautiful, atmospheric, haunting.......2004-04-01

I didn't think so much of the movie (pretentious, unrealized, with some good turns) but, boy, this is one heck of a soundtrack. Beautiful haunting melodies, that wonderful Jimmy Scott cover of Lennon's Jealous Guy. Tweedy Tweedy Tweedy. The music haunts my conciousness all the time. Great for driving. Great for yoga.

It's Tweedy, It's Good, Very Good.......2003-03-17

I have not seen the movie, but bought this album simply on the strength of Jeff Tweedy's reputation as a gifted, daring and innovative musician. I was not disappointed!

9 of the 12 tracks aqre Tweedy penned, most of them instrumentals performed by Tweedy and Glenn Kotche. Several of them are truly mesmorizing, including the "Opening Titles", with guitar-distorts all over, "Frank's Dream", "The Wallman" and, best of all, the 11 min. "Finale" with it's haunting guitar riff and overlaying piano playing.

There are 2 tracks attributed to Wilco: the "new" track "Promising" sounds like Tweedy solo, and the other one "When The Roses Bloom Again" is from the Mermaid Avenue sessions with Billy Brag, quite beautiful actually.

As with many movie soundtracks, this is a "mood album", and I find it very engaging, altough it's probably not for everyone.

The careful burnishing of John Lennon's daunting legend usually obscures one telling fact: the former Beatle endured a long and troubling artistic slump in the mid-'70s. Indeed, his five-year retirement/househusband phase may have been one of the shrewdest career moves he ever made. Cut in Los Angeles during his prolonged "lost weekend" estrangement from Yoko Ono, Walls and Bridges too often sacrifices the sublime for the ridiculous--that is, when it's not being altogether superfluous. Still, "Whatever Gets You Through the Night," Lennon's boisterous collaboration with Elton John, scored him his first No. 1 record as a solo artist, and compelling tracks like "Steel and Glass," "Going Down on Love," and "#9 Dream" belie the artistic genius Lennon was literally drowning in copious rounds of Brandy Alexanders during the period. --Jerry McCulley

The SOUL of John Lennon.......2007-06-20

How one approaches this disc depends on what you think of when you hear the name "John Lennon". If your idea of Lennon is the politically naive, misinformed "pseudo-Messiah" some people try to make him out to be, then listen to MIND GAMES. If your idea of him is the "kitty"-whipped, emaciated shadow who groaned out vapid tunes like "Nobody Told Me" and "Wheels", then you would be happier listening to DOUBLE FANTASY on continuous loop. However, if your idea of John Lennon is that of the former Beatle who got into the music business because he liked the work of Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly and Little Richard, then take a listen: THIS ALBUM KICKS SOME MAJOR BOOTY!

In 1973, Lennon was separated from Yoko Ono and found himself collaborating with music producer, Phil Spector. Spector was famous for his "wall of sound" and he brought to this disc, his trademark brass horns and strings; leaving solidly placed at the foundation,drums that repeatedly asserted themselves to skew the album toward the R+B side of the musical spectrum.Lest you think Spector's wall eclipsed Lennon, it was John's power as a songwriter, and on this occasion, as a VOCALIST that made this album a triumph! On this "rekkid", John Lennon did some of the best singing of his entire career!

Tortured lyrics dominate this album, but instead of lame-o impressions of Bob Dylan, John sang in his own style, the kind to which we have grown accostumed to hearing in some of the best Beatle tunes. John was alienated from his wife, uncomfortable with his celebrity and just plain mad at the world! Still, he never lost his sense of humor and so, grim songs like "Goin' Down on Love" and "Nobody Loves You" are balanced by little ditties such as "Old Dirt Road" and "Whatever Gets You Through the Night", the latter tune was a duet with Elton John that became a #1 hit! The hypnotic "#9 Dream" is here, featuring a cameo by Lennon's girlfriend of the time, May Pang, as well as one of the most beautiful love songs ever written, "Bless You".Listen for 10-year old Julian Lennon on "Ya,Ya" and shudder as John seems to predict his own death in the nightmarish, "Scared".

Where does this album stand in the Solo-Lennon canon? As an oddity but a delightful one that anticipates the Punk-Soul sound of groups like Brand Nubian or Girls Versus Boys. Finally, no matter what else one may think about this disc one thing cannot be denied: YOU CAN DANCE TO IT, GOL' DANG, IT! How many other "post-Beatles" Lennon albums can you say that about? Not many.

One of Lennon's best..........2007-05-10

I absolutely love this CD. Not for the sole fact that it is John Lennon's, but for the music itself. This has to be one of my favorite CD's by him. The Song "surprise, Surprise (Sweet Bird of Paradox)" is one of the greatest songs on the album. I highly recommend this CD.

This album is John Lennon's Best!.......2006-12-24

I believe Walls and Bridges to be John Lennon's best solo album. With Phil Specter's production help, Lennon's songs come across vibrant and strong. There is not one weak composition on this album. Number 9 Dream, Steal and Glass and Nobody Loves You (When You're Down and Out)are magnificent performances by Lennon and his band. And the orchestral background really adds dynamism to the experience of listening to this masterpiece. Get t his album! You won't regret it.

Lennon's Lost Weekend.......2006-04-14

Walls and Bridges was recorded doing the lost weekend when John exiled himself to California without Yoko Ono in order to see if their love was strong enough. He lived with his assistant turned lover May Pang. Her vocals is also feautured on "#9 Dream". Walls and Bridges is a happy uptempo album for the major part and friends like Elton John, Harry Nilsson, Keith Moon and Ringo Starr had all been around him, but was was beneath the surface that you also can hear on the lyrics on some songs is that John is mising Yoko. Althougn the plan after this was retirement, It would be his last album with new material atleast for a while, Rock N Roll that was released 1 years afterwards was a album with only old rock standards and his last ever studio album recorded whila live "Double Fantasy" was recorded with Yoko, but it came as late as in 1980.

"Going Down on Love" is a rocky beatlesque song with nice riffs and chorus, the lyrics are about missing Yoko. "Whatever Get's You Through the Night" was his first and only number #1 hit. This one feautures a young Elton John. Lennon had met him shortly after the Beatles broke up and he called Elton "The First New Thing He Heard since the Beatles". This catchy uptempo feautures horns and it's no wonder it became a massive hit. "Old Dirt Road" was co-written by Harry Nilsson. It's one of the slower songs here. "What You Got" is another catchy Stevie Wonder sounding song, John is almost screaming the lyrics here, the song itself is really soulish. The ballas "Bless You" another song about Yoko. That also was dating someone else during the hiatus. "Scared" also feauture horns but is more blues sounding, a slow moody song with a nice guitar solo.

"#9 Dream" is one of the best songs of thsi album. It's about a dream where John sees 2 diffrent women. May Pang's vocals feautures on this one and the song itself is a hypnotic dreamy passionate love song. ""Surprise, Surprise (Sweet Bird of Paradox)" is a uptempo with horns that feauture Elton on Piano and Backround vocals, but this one is weaker then their hit. "Steel and Glass" is a slow paced song that also is dreamy. "Beef Jerky" is a instrumental and I could live without it. Self-Pittying "Nobody Loves You (When You're Down and Out)" is another ballad and surprisingly good. Closer "Ya-Ya" is to forget, it's barely 1 minute and his son Julian plays the drums but it's not a good song.

Overall, For the major part a good album that once again shows Lennons most intimate feelings, it feauture some of his best songs such as the Elton John duet "Whatever Get's You Through the Night" and "#9 Dream". It's a little uneven at times and there are songs that are overproduced but in the end it's a plesant album with some high standards songs that defenitely should be purchased if you like John.

...one of [Lennon's] standout contributions to rock history.......2006-03-30

John Lennon topped the US Singles chart for the first time in 1974 with the hit Whatever Gets You Thru The Night, a radio-friendly duet with Elton John.

Following the success of the single came the album Walls And Bridges. Despite mixed reviews, the album contained some of the best songs and music Lennon had written throughout his entire career: the soulful Going Down On Love; the rhythmic What You Got (that sounds a lot like Stevie Wonder's Superstition); the slow and beautiful Old Dirt Road (co-written by Harry Nilsson); the dark rock tune Scared, which follows past songs like Isolation; a subliminal angry message to former agent Allen Klein in Steel In Glass (that uses the same musical pattern of How Do You Sleep); the affectionate ballad #9 Dream, also a song for Yoko; and what could possibly be the highlight on Walls And Bridges, the Dylanesque Nobody Loves You (When You're Down And Out), where Lennon expresses his feelings of depression and loneliness in such an honest way.

Walls And Bridges may not be the best Lennon album, but it is definitely one of his standout contributions to rock history.

It doesn't get much better.......2006-06-05

This CD has a place on my shelf as one of the best CD's ever recorded.

weaker effort.......2006-04-20

This album to me sounds very generic in places. I prefered the acoustic music of Dan's. While that is in place, much of the album is based around generic middle of the road rock songs, that to me, sound exactly like each other. On three tracks 'language of love', a pedestrian rocker, 'let her go' another very dull rocker and 'gone too far', I can't remember it now at all, he tries to rock and it is just not great. Yet a fourth track 'loving cup' also toes the line of rock song and folky music, and is better than the aforementioned three but still not that great.

On Dan's album 'Souvenirs', most of the tracks are melodic ballads, with only one rock song. Why he decided to go over board with the rock songs is a mystery to me.
'Tuscon, Arizona' it has been praised here continuously. When the song started, i thought it was a really nice sounding folk song. But the song goes on and on and on, and never changes. There is a small bride, but apart from that it is a poorly thought out melody, with a strong lyric. It is completely overrated and soon tires. But after over 8 mins, it is plain annoying.

The other three tracks are beautiful ballads, that I expect from Dan, and just push this up to 3 stars. 'Sweet magnolia' is a pretty piano ballad. 'Believe in me' has a soaring vocal melody and shimmering guitars. An extremely romantic song and quite beautiful. The best song for me is 'windows and walls'. This, for me, has the best lyric about growing old and being alone. The melody is exceptional and so is the instrumentation. Great orchestration as well.
As for the song

Don't compare them ! .......2005-10-12

First of all...how in the heck do you follow - up a masterpiece like "The Innocent Age" ? The answer is...you don't ! You simply continue to do what you do best....and that's what Dan Fogelberg does on "Windows And Walls" !

When I bought "Windows And Walls" in 1984...I didn't expect "The Innocent Age Part 2" ! I considered it to be exactly what it was...the latest release from Dan Fogelberg...consistently great songwriting....arranging...production...and a great performance ! My favorite songs Are "Believe In Me"..."Windows And Walls"...."Tucson,Arizona (Gazette)"...."Gone Too Far" and "The Language Of Love" .

Just enjoy this....don't compare !

one of the best.......2005-06-11

Unfortunatly, Dan Fogelberg is not well-known in France and Europe, but for me, he's one of the best american songwriters. I got about ten albums, from "never lands" to "river of souls" and "Tucson Arizona" is my favourite. Romantic, beautiful song. Just one word : respect !

very strong effort--has some of Dan's very best work.......2004-12-31

Not counting his 1982 "Greatest Hits" release which contained a couple new songs, "Windows and Walls" was Dan Fogelberg's first album since his 1981 double album "The Innocent Age". Fogelberg was clearly trying hard to make a 'Big Statement' with "The Innocent Age" which received a remarkable level of commercial success for a double album, hitting the Billboard top 10 and going platinum within its first four months of release, as well as yielding 4 considerably big hit singles. "Windows and Walls", a single LP originally released in January of 1984, did make it to #15 on the Billboard charts and went gold quickly, but it basically marked the end of Fogelberg's period of highest popularity, and it seems that it didn't receive even close to the kind of critical praise that "The Innocent Age" did.

All that said, some might suspect "Windows and Walls" to be something of a hiccup or a last gasp, especially considering the gap of well over 2 years between "The Innocent Age" and this album, but actually, "Windows and Walls" is a characteristically ambitious effort from Dan with several of the very best tracks he's ever done. Plus, I must admit that I really like how Fogelberg, a prominent `70s artist, is staying true to himself on this effort and not trying in the slightest to `update` his sound to fit in with the popular trends of the mid-'80s. This album VERY much sounds like it could have come out 5 years earlier than it did, and I mean that as a compliment.

The opening 4 song sequence (`side 1' in vinyl terms) is great--it shows you how good Fogelberg can be. "The Language of Love" is a catchy rocker with stop and start riffery that recalls AC/DC, and Dan's rough-edged vocal puts the lyrics over which are somewhat simple, but fun and right on the money. The atmospheric title track is a haunting, powerful cautionary tale about ageing--again, the lyrics are right on the money, almost frighteningly so. The splendidly tuneful "The Loving Cup", one of his 'romantic desperation' songs, kind of straddles the line between being a ballad and a rocker and has a really nice mid-song guitar solo; it's a very strong track overall, but it's a tad slight--for the third verse, instead of coming up with something new, he splices together the first two lines from the first verse with the last two lines from the second; and it's also marred a bit by the overdone outro which blatantly imitates "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and has an annoying `pull the plug' ending. The `side-closer' "Tucson, Arizona (Gazette)" is a marvelous accomplishment, an excellently melodic and captivating 8+ minute story-song that's rich with detail, very strongly reminiscent of Al Stewart--classical guitar & all--and also suspiciously similar musically to the Hollies' "Tell Me To My Face" which Fogelberg had already covered on his 1978 duet album with Tim Weisberg; in any case, the song shows Fogelberg carrying out his ambitiousness in such a way that his earlier attempt at an epic story song with "Beggar's Game" (from his "Phoenix" album) did not--it`s no wonder that Fogelberg himself has cited this as his "all-time favorite track".

Unfortunately, it's as if Fogelberg burnt himself out with these first 4 tracks, because `side 2' is much weaker. "Let Her Go" is a rocker that's not even quite mid-tempo, and it's decent, but rote. Then there are a pair of orchestrated ballads including the drippy and dull "Sweet Magnolia (And The Travelling Salesman)"; and the tender "Believe In Me" which is decent, but still frustratingly slight. He does end the album with the moody environmentally-themed rocker "Gone Too Far" which, despite unimaginative lyrics, is excellently catchy.

So, it's rough sailing at times with this album, but with all of the excellent material that it does contain, it's very worthwhile and a must for any serious fan, and it makes for a solid starting point for new/ casual fans as well.

Wonderful as expected.......2007-05-22

Keiko Matsui's music constantly has me saying, "she's so good!" as I listen to her CDs, and this one is no exception. The songs flow together beautifully and there are several on this CD that stand out a little more than the other good ones. As good as the whole CD is, the second half really brings it home beautifully - "Blue Butterfly", "Gentle Sands" and the title track are all great tunes.

This is one of those CDs you'll put in the player and just relax while it plays, or enjoy the drive a little more if you play it while driving around.

Ok.....but.......2007-01-02

I decide to try this album based on all the great reviews. The music is essentially just Jazz with piano; nice but nothing new. It had a little to much orchestration (for me) and not enough spotlighting on Ms Matsui's keyboarding. If you've listened to a fine piano artist like Bob James, then you've heard music very similar to Ms Matsui'salready. It was ok, but nothing memorable (IMHO).

Great!.......2006-03-10

Great music and great video! A little different from her other albums - even better I think.

Sounds of Heaven.......2005-10-05

WOW! Ms Matsui has really done it. I have all of her CD's and this is the BEST. She covers the full range of sounds- hard beat to soul renching soft. Whatever you do when you get this,
sit or lay down and LISTEN- give it your full attention as it certainly deserves it.
Thanks Keiko for not just writing music but creating it.

Another great CD.......2005-09-20

Keiko never bores me, nor do I get tired of listening to her music. I'll add this to my collection of all her CDs and enjoy it just as much as those. Listen and maybe Keiko will take you on a journey somewhere beyond space and time.

good, but unlucky.......2006-08-19

Woody Allen's movie Matchpoint begins with the words, "The man who said 'I'd rather be lucky than good' saw deeply into life." Matthew Wilder is proof that being good is often not enough. On both of his albums, collected here on one disc, he demonstrates superb songwriting and musicianship, wondrous skill on both keyboards and guitar, and an exceptional voice, which matches perfectly the mood and depth of each song. Though I was only a very young child in the early eighties, I still remember being captivated every time "Break My Stride" came on the radio. The passage of time has not diminished the power or beauty of this song, and I was pleasantly surprised to discover that many of the other songs on this disc spin the same delightful magic. And I am left wondering what became of Matthew Wilder, the should-have-been pop star and musical legend? He was good, very good, but he was not lucky. And unfortunately, as the boy bands and Brittney Spears and countless other soulless, mass-produced pop stars, who are more famous for their fame than for their talent, have proved time and again, being lucky gets you a lot further than being good. If you, however, buy music for the music, rather than for the popular "image" of the performer, then this disc would make a fantastic addition to your collection.

Yes,Finally!!!!.......2006-03-28

"Break My Stride" by Matthew Wilder is my favorite song! Every time I looked it up it was some crummy remake with Jamacin music, you should really check this awesome cd out.

Help me find this song........2005-07-24

I tried downloading the song Break my stride by matthew wilder and it ended up being some weird remix with steal drums and jamaican music. There was also alot of little instrumental parts throughout it. It sounds way better than the original song, I was wondering if anyone knew where this came from, a specific cd or somethin, cuz im afraid if I somehow lose it someday Ill never be able to find it again.

Melody and Beat So Catching..........2004-04-19

I bought this way back when solely for "Break My Stride" on cassette tape (before CDs) and replaced it with this CD soon as I saw it and WHAT! it has more songs! A rarity in these days, but everything on the CD is great and or better! The songs "I Don't Speak the Language," "I Don't Speak the Language-Reprise" and "Dreams Keep Bringing You Back" send me to musical heaven and back. Also, as a Chinese-American, contrary to another reviewer I don't particularly find the lyrics to "Break My Stride" racist. Nothing going to break my stride... gotta keep on moving. Yeahhh.... I love it

I FINALLY FOUND IT!!!!.......2004-03-28

It,s Taken me years to find this album. I still have a worn out tape that I painfully listen to and refuse to get rid of. This album has special meaning to me because on our first date my now wife of 16 years and I heard "Aint nothin gonna break my stride"this song came on the radio and we simultaneously proclaimed to each other "This is my song, my motto" we both laughed and the rest was history.Thankyou to who ever it was that finally recognised Mathew's awesome talent, Thankyou for allowing me to relive a special moment with a special someone!
