Product Description

Spin (1/99, p.91) - Ranked #2 on Spin's list of "Top 20 Albums of '98."
Rolling Stone (9/3/98, pp.98-100) - 3.5 Stars (out of 5) - "...his most adventurous music ever, opening up his acoustic flow with piano, horns, vocal overdubs, even a string section. Smith still has a love jones, and he's still a heartache looking for a place to happen..."
Spin (9/98, pp.180-182) - 8 (out of 10) - "...This is his happiest sounding record to date, and his saddest; haunted and trembling beneath its composed surface of chiming guitars and soothing electric piano..."
CMJ (1/11/99, p.3) - "...His major label debut, XO, ably shattered all expectations, displaying a level of melodic beauty and stark sophistication..."
Entertainment Weekly (9/4/98, p.82) - "...As with his indie albums, XO wallows in sentiments and melodies so fragile, they should be individually bubbled-wrapped. Smith's world is one in which people continually search for emotional connections--only to lose or break them and then live with the regret..." - Rating: B

このアルバム、恐ろしく中毒性が高い。何でこんなに何回も聴きたくなるんだろう・・・？？それとボーナストラックのミス・ミザリーがとにかく名曲過ぎる。彼が今はいないことを思うとものすごく悲しい。
