 Strong song of the day, 4½ stars January 24, 2010

At first listen I thought, "That singer sounds familiar". Turns out Curt Smith is the voice of Tears For Fears. For the past twenty years or so the market has seen a lot of gruff-voiced alt-rock singers, so Smith's clear strong vocals stand as a refreshing and welcome counterpoint. I especially appreciate his ability to deliver a song in a straightforward manner without affectation, allowing the lyrics and his voice their due. The arrangement is spare and beautiful with no unnecessary clutter.
I discovered Zoë Keating and her cello+electronics work while doing a random search here on Amazon about a year ago; the "Natoma" album was one of my most-played discoveries of 2009. For "All Is Love", her cello provides a perfect accompaniment without ever upstaging. Any day is a good day when Amazon's song of the day combines two such talents as Curt Smith and Zoe Keating.
Musical bliss and enjoyment provided by Curt & Zoe January 24, 2010

One listen to "All is Love" is all you will need to get hooked. The musical and vocal connections Curt Smith, Zoe Keating and the musicians have on this track are beautifully orchestrated. Curt's ethereal voice and Zoe's passionate cello talents are truly blissful and magically sweep you away to that "feel good" place.
Curt's vocal quality just gets better and better. Much like his exquisite album "Halfway Pleased", this song rings true to Curt's quality and deep sense of creating musical beauty through his apparent love for his work. It brings me great joy to hear the upbeat and positive lyrics of hope intertwined amongst the heartfelt instrumentation. You won't be disappointed with your purchase of this song. It will definitely leave you wanting more new material from Curt Smith. I know I'll be able to enjoy this over and over & can't wait to hear more of Curt's musical creations!

All Is Love is the perfect amalgamation of classic Curt Smith with a classical cello. All at once it's sweet and hopeful, positive and forward thinking. Curt's mellow, melodic voice is soothing and amazing. I could listen again and again, and say "Bravo, Curt" and "Please might I have another?"
Another fantastic track! January 24, 2010

All Is Love is another fantastic track from Tears For Fears co-founder Curt Smith. The layered arrangement, held at bay by the wonderful cello of Zoe Keating, is lush and Curt's voice soars effortlessly over it all. If this is a hint at what to expect as a followup to Halfway, Pleased, we are definitely in for something special.
Another amazing song from Curt Smith! January 24, 2010

Everyone has one of those songs that they just love to play over and over and over again. The kind that if it were an old 45 you would have to buy a new one to replace it... well this is one of those songs. You can play this one in the background all day long and never be tired of it and then still find yourself humming it later on! And the lyrics... probably not the way he meant... but with all that is going on in Haiti right now... even more special. "Hold on tight everyone... We'll all reach out to touch someone... They'll be love for everyone"
