| 2009 album from the Denver-based quartet, the follow-up to their enormously successful How To Save A Life. The Fray, who exploded into worldwide success with that album, have captured the skilled songwriting that broke them and, with the help of acclaimed producers Mike Flynn and Aaron Johnson, created a set of songs sure to make them household names. The band continues their licensing success story by collaborating with ABC's hit show, Lost in a series of music video promos featuring the album's first single, 'You Found Me' for the newest season of the show. The spots also ran during the 2008 American Music Awards, where the band was a featured performer. Over the weekend of the release and performance, the Lost video had over one million views. 10 tracks. |

Bought this CD when it first was released of course I had heard on the radio "You Found Me" which it worked I loved it enough to run out and purchase the CD without hearing another song... but "How to Save a Life" was done so well that I had no hesitation with doing so.
I LOVE this CD it has at least 4 to 5 other good songs I immediately connected with "Enough for Now" there are some times when a song is heard and it sweeps you in and make your eyes water... well "Enough for Now" was that song for me on this CD. I have read some other reviews on here that compare this one to "HTSAL" but on it's own this is a beautiful CD with lyrics that are so real... so heart wrenching but in a subtle way.
"Ungodly Hour" was deep, sad and meaningful as he says "Her bags are now much heavier... I wish that I could carry her" a dramatic song.There are others I could list but I believe everyone has their own ear for music... what speaks to them so I just wanted to come in and share my experience with this CD. I listen to it gardening, driving, while reading, cooking. Due to the nice array of uptempo to easy listening it compliments most of my days =]

| I just drove 1400 miles solo and every day I played the FRAY album in the morning over and over. It's contagious! All the songs have a mood. I am no spring chicken and still, I love this young band so much, I recommended it to all my friends, actually anyone who would listen. I hope they continue to write and play until they are grey like me. Buy this one. You won't be disappointed. |
Amazing

| This album captures what the fray are truly about. I was hooked on You Found Me but I must say that I even more hooked on Never Say Never. This album is perfect for those who want to listen to songs with some substance. There music is something that you can really get behind. The whole album is full of great songs that really pull at your heart. |
Excellent Album

While I enjoy the entire album, the song 'Enough For Now' particularly struck me. It feels as if the song were written for me, a feeling that few artists can seem to evoke these days.
The Fray always comes up with songs that reach out and grab the audience - they have succeeded yet again with this release.
Definitely worth looking into for fans of How to Save a Life. |
MUCH BETTER THAN FIRST RELEASE.

Their second collection is much better than the first. Considering how great their first record was, that is saying something. "You Found Me" was a great first single, but if all you care about is single-worthy material, then you will surely not fully appreciate this new offering. It's so much more than singles, but about the mood of it all.
My favorite tracks are "Syndicate", "You Found Me", "Ungodly Hour", "Never Say Never", "Say When" but the best song on the album, and possibly their best song EVER is...
"Absolute."
Wow, what a gem. I can't stop listening to it.
ALSO, I should mention to other reviewers here that these reviews aren't meant for the sellers, it's for the album. So, please don't post about how you didn't get the product. Tell that to your seller. When you do get it, come here and tell everyone what you think of it.
The end. |
