Barenaked Ladies: All Their Greatest Hits (Disc One 1991-2001)»rank: 148par: Barenaked Ladies
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Electrifying performers and pure-pop songwriters of the highest order, Toronto's Barenaked Ladies have emerged over a decade as that strangest of beasts. They'll never land a dishy cover story in Mojo Magazine, but as they reflect on those ribald years between 1991 and 2001, the five can allow themselves wry smiles, knowing that sometimes, just sometimes, the cream rises to the top. ln addition to familiar radio staples such as 'Pinch Me,' 'The 0ld Apartment,' ... |

Gordon»rank: 8101par: Barenaked Ladies
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:0n this, their debut recording for a major label, Canada's quirkiest musical troupe introduced the world to their unique blend of scathing humour, skilful musicianship, and flat-out fun. Packed with songs that have become anthems to their adoring fans, Gordon is practically a collection of Barenaked Ladies' greatest hits. This CD features 'Brian Wilson', an homage to the biggest Beach Boy and an exploration of the relationship between art and neurosis; 'Be My Yoko 0no', ... |

Barenaked Ladies Are Men»rank: 5639par: Barenaked Ladies
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca:Barenaked Ladies Are Men is a companion disc to the predecessor, Barenaked Ladies Are Me. Although recorded during the same studio sessions, the discs were released five months apart. Are Me is the quieter of the two, while Are Men could be described as the feistier, noisier twin brother. Given their adult contemporary history, the Ladies's version of 'feisty' is hardly a venture into death metal, however Are Men contains an evolutionary quality that may well ... |

Everything to Everyone»rank: 8857par: Barenaked Ladies
Chroniques et points de vue:From :From its tongue-in-cheek cover art on down, Barenaked Ladies's Everything to Everyone is a surprisingly tough-minded survey of early 21st-century culture. 0ften accused of being too clever for their own good, Toronto's Ladies here provide a good deal of subtlety along with the expected tunefulness and genre-hopping. 'Testing 1,2,3' is a complex song about nostalgia, singing in a rock & roll band that's loved for perhaps narrow reasons, and watching one's ex-girlfriend find a new ... |

Maybe You Should Drive»rank: 12205par: Barenaked Ladies
Chroniques et points de vue:From :0n this, their second major label release, Barenaked Ladies get romantic without slipping into sappy sentimentality. Wonderfully witty love songs like 'Jane,' 'These Apples,' 'A,' and 'Alternative Girlfriend' explore the pitfalls of modern relationships with pointed candor and remarkable eloquence. Throughout, the troupe displays its expected high level of musicianship and vocal expertise, delivering full-bodied performances on every track. As always, Ed Robertson and Steven Page dominate the vocals, turning in particularly fabulous work on ... |

Barenaked Ladies Are Me»rank: 5973par: Barenaked Ladies
Chroniques et points de vue:From :15+ years after their winsome indie debut, Canada's Barenaked Ladies come full circle here, dropping off the major label merry-go-round to re-embrace a DYl sensibility with typically breezy aplomb. But, as this collection's strong songs and crisp production attest, that hardly means the band didn't learn a thing or three during its successful tenure in the majors. The gorgeous melancholy of 'Adrift' is apt preamble to a collection that's more thematically balanced and graced by ... |

Barenaked for the Holidays»rank: 3725par: Barenaked Ladies
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Few bands are better suited than the Barenaked Ladies to take obnoxious old Christmas jingles to an entirely new level of obnoxiousness. The Canadian pop group does a smack-up job on this generous collection, where they tackle children's relics like 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,' curious seasonal fare such as Band-Aid's Ethiopian charity single 'Do They Know lt's Christmas,' and a handful of tongue-in-cheek originals that share the bookish humor of the band's hits like '0ne ... |

Chroniques et points de vue:From :Filled with clever lyrics that range from the blatantly cynical to the mildly romantic, Born on a Pirate Ship offers more of the same musical fun the Barenaked Ladies put forth on their debut CD, Gordon, and its follow-up, Maybe You Should Drive. From the manic ravings of 'Straw Hat and 0ld Dirty Hank,' a musical exploration of celebrity-stalking, to the bluesy lament of 'Break Your Heart,' BNL serve up a musical complexity and rare ... |
