5 out of 5 stars Grows with each listen.......2006-12-29

Whenever I get stressed out as a teacher, I listen to Aselin and I get lost in a better place. The newer "Bigger Than Me" took more time than her first venture to fall in love with But with each listen, it grew more and more endearing. She is amazing singer/songwriter and will lift your spirits no matter where you are ( mine in Long Island NY traffic ) and bring you to a better place. Now my only complaint is when are you going on tour - we need you here in NYC. Fast, no, make that slow...

5 out of 5 stars Excellent.......2006-06-11

I wish she would have included a few celtic-flavored songs like those on her first CD, but other than that I can't think of anything negative to say. I enjoyed every track on this CD, and that is pretty rare! I recommend this CD without hesitation.

5 out of 5 stars "Bigger than Me" an exceptional album everyone can relate to.......2005-06-29

Aselin. Not an ordinary name, but very fitting, as Aselin is not an ordinary girl. First, not everyone can sing with the power, grace and beauty Aselin's voice holds. Second, how many 14 year olds have 2 successful cd's, a few hit singles and countless incredible performances under their belts? Her songwriting talent is not ordinary either. It is not very often that you find a young girl sitting down to write folk/pop music with some of the country's greatest writers, nor is it often you realize that these songs are coming straight from the heart. Rather than being packaged into teeny-bopper songs about heartbreak, Aselin writes about what she knows, and thus, her songs are very easy to relate to. The first single, "Life", talks about trying to make it through tough times and do something right - a struggle so many young teens I know are going through right now. Almost everyone who knows someone with divorced parents can relate to "Faze", and anyone who thinks things are happening too quickly in the world understands "Had to Grow Up". People who argue with their friends and then regret it will find comfort in "Stupid Things" and "Thank you (4 Breaking my Heart)" and "The Friend in Me" also describe typical situations for dating teenagers. This kind of truth is not found in the average pop album now, yet another thing which separates Aselin from the rest. And finally, Aselin is not the ordinary pop star. Instead of getting caught up in the glitz and glamour, she is remarkably level-headed, and, as she writes on her website, "at the end of the day, I'm still Azi!"

5 out of 5 stars Hard To Get,But Worth The Wait.......2005-05-29

It took what seemed like forever to aquire this CD,but it was well worth the wait. Unfortunately,its not available in the U.S. except as an import,so the number of copies available are limited. All I can say is,it was worth the trouble,as this CD is a treasure. "Bigger Than Me" is Aselin's 2nd CD,and it is a marked departure from her first alboum,"Sweet Is The Melody." That CD reflected her Cape Breton roots,and was full of beautiful Celtic songs which have had profound influenece on her life. It also included her first venture into songwriting,as she co-wrote "The Dance You Choose" with her mentor,Bruce Guthro. Aselin's 2nd CD focuses on her own experiences as a teenager,including divorce,friendship,and of course first crushes. Aselin co-wrote all of the songs,and also played guitar. Her voice is wonderful,and should be even better as she grows older. Celtic music influences this CD,but this alboum is about Aselin exploring the issues important to her. Celtic music will always be apart of her life,and a strong influence on her music,but this CD proves that she has wide range. I look forward to seeing her continuing to grow as an artist.

5 out of 5 stars Shocked with my find!.......2005-05-07

Aselin is an outstanding new singer and I was amazed with her cd when I bought it. Her songs are all very well sung and her lyrics really have meaning, unlike lots of pop/rock these days. Overall I would have to say this cd is totally worth purchasing!

3 out of 5 stars Haunting.......2006-02-22

I'm giving this compilation 3 stars not because it isn't good...but because I feel that the String Quartet didn't take advantage of The Smiths catalogue. I was disappointed to see that some of my favorites were not covered. Maybe for volume 2?

Other than that...it was mostly beautiful. The cover of "Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want" was particularly good. In fact, they managed to make it even more
melancholy than the original! I didn't even know that was possible.

3 out of 5 stars mediocre.......2004-06-20

This CD sounds like a good idea, but on hearing it I was disappointed. The string quartet doesnt seem enough for a lot of these songs, maybe with a few more instruments in there it could work. It also seems, like many other string quartet tribute CDs, that these people playing the songs are not fans of the band, they don't seem to get into the music, or understand what makes it great. This CD is only nescassary for hardcore smiths fans that already have their albums.

4 out of 5 stars Great album........2004-04-04

This is a wonderful album if you truly are a "Smiths" fan. The strings do an excellent job of masking as Morrissey's voice. However, even if you aren't a fan of The Smiths, the melodies are enjoyable. Johnny Marr will go down as a gifted guitarist/writer (as all his Guitar magazine accolades). People who aren't fans or are "Morrissey-jaded" wouldn't like this or probably anything else not Morrissey. Oh yeah, that's right I said it!!!

3 out of 5 stars a little odd.......2003-10-05

Uh, this is wierd. It is like Morrissey and the Smiths covering Metalica. It just doesn't fit. Even so, for the hardcore Smiths fan it is worth the buy. Back To The Old HOuse was enjoyable, but I would suggest that you listen to the versions of other artists. And who chose the playlist? Crappy at best.

3 out of 5 stars Worked for The Cure tribute not for The Smiths.......2003-09-08

The String Quartet's tribute to The Smiths doesn't quite work as well as the tribute to The Cure. Maybe it's because the music from The Cure is much more colorful and has more layer and works wonderfully well with string instruments. However, without Morrisey's voice the string music doesn't work well.

        Product Description

        Combining the raw intensity of Pinkerton-era Weezer, with the percussive chops of The Dismemberment Plan, and the melodic, pop meanderings of Death Cab for Cutie, You Me & Iowa is a force to be reckoned with. Bigger Than Boston is the debut EP by this Los Angeles quintet. Remixed and remastered in 2006.

        A very funky single by the dublin four piece. A catchy chorus, some great vocals.... Buy it and while your at it you might aswell buy flock and music in mouth too.
