Great mix of songs and laughs............2005-12-17

Can't think of another Canadian(besides Joni Mitchell & Neil Young)with as much talent as this excellent singer/songwriter/
comedian. Blessed with such a strong voice that bends with her
moody songs and soars and bleeds, no small feat. Jann Arden
songs have been in and out of my cd players for years, she rarely ever dissapoints, and on this live outing she is spectacular in the way she mixes the laughs through some very
funny strange tales and the way she connects with the crowds
and then the delivery of these classy songs. Jann really needs
to work her magic here in the states, its not surprising to
me she had been working for years with some of those folks
that made Bonnie Raitts recordings so special all during the
90's(Ed Cherney). Sure Jann Arden works that melancholy side
but I really don't know of any performer that is so gifted at
doing it this way, she writes such beautiful, sad songs about
life and relationships but she can rock when she wants, and talk and tell some really funny stories. Shes doing a better
job of mixing her styles on the lastest(2005) release, I look
forward to seeing her live one day.
This is a fine collection, don't miss it.

Great songs & stories.......2003-01-17

I love this CD. I've never been to one of Jann's concerts, so this gives a good idea of what they're like. The songs sound fantastic with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra and her stories that she tells before some of the songs are so funny. I also love the interaction with the players in the symphony. I do wish the sound when she's speaking was at the same volume as the sound when she's singing, but I've noticed that on many live albums so I wasn't surprised that I had to turn up the volume during the speaking segments.
Overall, a lot of fun.

If you like Jann Arden, you'll also like Dar Williams.

Rocky start, smooth finish.......2003-01-07

I saw this concert in Windsor, Ontario, and Jann had the same sound problems with the opening song that night, as she does on this live recording from Vancouver. The mix is way off in spots, and the vocals are all but lost just pass the three minute mark. Why this wasn't corrected in post-production is even more troublesome. Jann is much better than this recording, and buyers deserve better quality for the hefty $[money] pricetag. Fortunately things get much better quickly, and the rest of the release is very good. Great entertainment for fans and newcomers.

Jann Arden--best performer EVER.......2002-11-17

Okay, I'm kind of cheating here...I don't have this CD but I saw one of her shows in Winnipeg with the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra...and it is simply the best concert I have ever attended. Jann's music is beautiful...she's the 'Queen of Broken-hearted Love Songs' and she simply creates beautiful music. Now add some excellent arrangements on a part of the orchestra, and you've got a magical atmosphere to many of her songs. While there are times that the part of her regular band that's present drowns out the symphony, all songs are beautiful. 'I Would Die for You' was my favorite with the strings, but so many of them are good. The only problem is that this CD is really a repackaged greatist Hits CD...not containing some of the non-singles that she performed, like Time for Mercy...and I said I liked I Would Die for You was my favorite, I must correct myself...this version of 'Hangin' By a Thread' was amazing, creating a lifetime of love for that song. Even 'Thing For You' isn't included.

But enough about her music, Jann Arden creates such great performances because of her humour, and wit and...everything...The way she relentlessly tells stories and makes jokes about her parents, and how she plays off what the crowd does...Jann Arden will make you laugh, no doubt about it and it will not detract from the music at all. If you ever have the chance to see her live...DO IT. It is the least regrettable thing you can do.

I knew from the instant the opening of 'Thing For You' began that a CD from this symphony tour she was on would be created in Heaven. There's no doubt that Jann Arden is one of the best singers in the world. Check this CD out, and you'll find that she's probably the best performer in teh world too.

Spectacular.......2002-11-14

This is, strangely, Jann Arden's most thrilling album, strange because it is so divorced from what she has done otherwise in her remarkable body of work. To thunderous accompaniments which surge and ebb like a sonic ocean, she magnificently samples her large repertoire mesmerizingly. Then, between songs, she offers a bawdy, naughty series of stories and comments which prove Canadians are not as reserved, proper and controlled as reputation might have, judging by the hysterical laughter from the audience (and orchestra). A mystical, magical singer and songwriter, Arden lays claim to true greatness here. Don't miss it!
