INCREDIBLE VOCALS....ANTONY AND THE JOHNSONS any other orgers picked up this great album and stunning vocals of antony and his band the johnsons. "I am a Bird Now " has some wonderful songs but antony has the most incredible voice i have heard in years. the lyrics are interesting to say the least (transgender) but the songs are so beautiful, you cannot help loving it. | |

I listened to samples at Barnes and Noble after having read about him in a British music mag. I didn't buy it, then went back a few days later and the one copy they had was gone.
It's very different. I can't decide if it would grow on me or if later I would think what the hell did I buy this for? The fact that Boy George guests on it caught my attention. Should I get it do you think? | |

Been meaning to get this for awhile. Sounds wonderful. He keeps getting compared to Nina Simone so that has to be a good thing. | |

I saw him live once. Thought it was a little pretentious, but also kind of amazing. His voice does seem like it might be hard to get through on a full CD, but I think I'll check it out. | |

Thanks! I did pick it up. It's unlike anything I've ever heard before.
Very ethereal and almost mysterious. i do think it will grow on me. The booklet that comes with it is almost spooky. Makes me curious to learn more about him/her. | |

it's an extraordinary album. probably the best album this year so far. I woke up sunday morning with no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
and the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad so I had one more for dessert | |

I've heard "Hope There's Someone To Take Care Of Me" (is that the right title? ). It grew on me after the third spin. I think it was just getting used to the "operatic" style. It's refreshingly different. I'd like to hear more "..My work is personal, I'm a working person, I put in work, I work with purpose.." | |
