Free Music Notes for Some Mad Hope

Free Music Review: Hard to Believe
Hit: 5 Stars

I heard a Matt track on my cable TV music system under Adult Alternative and bought this CD based on the positive reviews on this site. I've never submitted a review before but felt compelled to share with others, the reviewers on this site are absolutely correct.

This is one of the best efforts I've heard from any musician in some time. The arrangments are simply incredible and the lyrics make you want to hear what he's saying. There isn't a song on the CD I skip over when it plays and every one exudes emotion. I'm not a big concert goer any longer but will be seeking out a Matt Nathanson show soon.

Buy it, you'll like it.

Some Mad Hope Poster

With rapturous romanticism and over-the-top, heart-on-sleeve emotion, Matt Nathanson can't decide whether he wants to be U2's Bono (particularly on the opening "Car Crash") or John Mayer (with whom he's toured as an opening act). Though his roots are in the folk coffeehouse, he plainly has his ears aimed toward the rock arena, as the propulsive "To the Beat of Our Noisy Hearts" and "Detroit Waves" attest. "Wedding Dress" sounds like it's aspiring to become a first-dance standard, while the sensuality of "Come On Get Higher" suggests more stripped-down delights. A couple of lines here compete for the album's cheesiest: "C'mon let's make this dream that's barely half-awake come true" (from "Heartbreak World") and "All we are we are/and every day's a star/something beautiful" (from the breathy closing track). Honorable mention: "What happened to feeling cheap radio songs?" (from "Bulletproof Weeks"). --Don McLeese
"Nathanson has offered an album so solid, so addicting, so enduring on repeat listens that it will quickly become the soundtrack of your late summer."
