Best of 2005,
By A Customer
This review is from: Vanity Project, the (Audio CD)
I absolutely adore this album. Steven Page began collaborating with Stephen Duffy in 1994 on the Barenaked Ladies album Maybe You Should Drive, and finally they have released their efforts all on one album as The Vanity Project. If you enjoyed Barenaked Ladies songs "Jane" and "Call and Answer" you will love this Album! Everyone should hear The Vanity Project.

Superb!,

This review is from: Vanity Project, the (Audio CD)
Picked up The Vanity Project on the day of release. Absolutely fantastic! Each song is full of emotion, and one truly gets the impression that Page really has put a lot of thought into his songs. One of my favourite tracks thus far would have to be "Wilted Rose." This song involves Pierre Trudeau, and naturally, of course, goes straight to my heart, hehe. This album is a must-have!

A rare gem. Excellence that only Page/Duffy can create...,
By J.A. Miners - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Vanity Project (Audio CD)
What can I say? The Vanity Project is a thought provoking album well-crafted by the extremely talented artist/Barenaked Ladies lead singer Steven Page with most songs co-written and co-produced by Stephen Duffy (who has worked with BNL on several occasions). The Vanity Project is basically classic BNL wordplay minus the few "silly" (but still clever) songs one would expect to find in a BNL album. Everything on The Vanity Project seemingly boils down to Page's thoughts and apparent self-examination. Yet, Page manages to accomplish this in such a way that the songs do not have a strong, blunt, satrical tone, but instead a catchy, less-pushy, and WAY more clever tone than most pop/rock albums (by the way, the Vanity Project is really more of an acoustic album than full-fledged rock). BNL fans may be prematurely disappointed because of the BNL band members' exclusion from the Vanity Project (except for Kevin Hearn's keyboard expertise on Glitterbug), but once they hear the album's unmistakable freshness and quality, they will undoubtedly come to the conclusion that the same quality still resides throughout the entire Vanity Project album as in any other BNL release. Since I've only owned this album for a short time, I haven't gotten the chance to disect the meaning of each song. I have listented to them all, though, and can say without resignation that this album is absolutely enjoyable to ANY BNL fan, or someone looking for an acoustic pop/rock album that strays away from the dull norm. Place your order now, or go to your local electronics store (I went to Barnes & Nobles Booksellers) to pick up the Vanity Project today!

Gotta let it grow on you,
By Z. Freeman "Zach" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Vanity Project (Audio CD)
First of all, this isn't a Barenaked Ladies album. You have to know that when you get it. (Although you probably haven't heard of this if you don't like Barenaked Ladies).The first time through this cd I noticed a few catchy tunes and a few songs that I thought I'd never get to like, but each time I listen to it again I like it more. So, don't give up after the first listen, or you'll be missing some great music. Glitterbug is, in my opinion, the best song on the album. Short, clear and super-sweet, with some beautifully simple music. The fact that this album exists at all makes me wonder what's wrong with these songs that the Barenaked Ladies didn't want to use them, because the feel of most of the music and lyrics is the same. Maybe Stephen Page felt these were more personal somehow, or maybe the rest of the band didn't like them. Whatever the reason, it's worth picking up the cd while we're waiting for another Barenaked Ladies cd to come out. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful

Not quite BNL but worth listening to.,
By Kat Angus "thruthelifeforce" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Vanity Project (Audio CD)
The die-hard BNL fans will get this because Steven Page is a phenomenal singer, musician and songwriter. And I can tell you that they will not be disappointed... but it is very different to BNL and doesn't showcase Page's range as much as the band stuff does.Overall a good album, Hit and Run is my favourite track. |
