a classic randy newman record
It's a very good disc with beautifull songs. Fantastic well-known irony, beautifull arrangements, orchestration, it's all there.

Social Commentary
Randy Newman is the most astute songwriter and thinker when it comes to social commentary. Not everyone "gets" him, but I crave his voice and his original songs. I have listened to this amazing album over and over, especially the song "A Few Words in Defense of Our Country." Truly, he has "heard America singing."

A great album
The state of the union and our culture from one of our more acerbic commentators. Newman's tone of comic bemusement and aloof disgust has never been put to better use. May be the best record of his career.

Better than Ever!
Randy Newman is at his best here. When sweet, his songs will tear your heart out. When sarcastic and political, his tongue at its acid best. When honest -- brutally funny and pulling no punches. I really love this set of pieces. This is melodic and beautifully crafted thinking man's music. How he continues to write this way, so consistently excellent never ceases to astound me. This is a must buy, because you will want to listen over and over and over again. There's much more here than meets the eye at first go-see.
