Fantastic Nov 17, 2006
This CD and his other are the best CDs I've heard in a LONG time. I have listened to Winter the most, finding it from Scrubs (it went fantastacally in that scene...) and I decided to get the two other cds. I LOVE it, a nice quiet cd full of lugubrious songs.

An absolute masterpiece Apr 09, 2006
I first discovered the song, "Winter", in an episode of Scrubs and was absolutely floored by how the song not only emphasized the action within the scene, but gave it 10 times more depth than it otherwise would have had. Whoever the Music Supervisor on Scrubs was at that time was brilliant. Some may say that Josh is a sell out for putting his music into soundtracks...not me. If it means he gets an audience for his music, I'm all for him getting such positive advertisement. In my humble opinion, Josh has more talent in one finger than many artists out there today and I truly hope his sound doesn't fade.
The other songs on the album are also amazing - it really is difficult to pick one that stands out from the rest. If you're like me and grew up with The Smiths, you'll definitely find his take on "Girlfriend in a Coma" quite interesting and unique. "Don't Look Away" is another one that will have you singing along in the car...
Oh, and a word of advice...check out not only Scrubs, but also Grey's Anatomy for some really amazing music. (Grey's used the same song, "Winter", in one of their episodes...gotta love originality!) Of course, TV is not normally where I find new sources of music, but it's almost as though the new breed of Music Supervisors coming up through the ranks are being given more range to test the waters with new artists - exciting and interesting artists who wouldn't be heard otherwise (and who have a good sound).
Sorry for rambling. But if you can track this one down for your collection, do it. It's one of those albums you wish would just continue...alas, it's just a taste, and I know I'm counting the days to his next release.
Take care, and thanks for reading.

 He's no Morrissey but... Apr 03, 2005
This is a good EP. The highlight for me is the cover of the Morrissey (smiths) song "Girlfriend in a Coma." His voice isn't as fun and unique as the Mozzah and he may have missed the irony a bit, but it is a very cute cover. This is certainly one of the better covers of Morrissey's music. T.A.T.U. could learn a thing or two from Joshua. This would rate up there with Jeff Buckley's Morrissey's covers.

Simply Amazing Dec 02, 2004
This CD is by far one of my most played and is perfect for these melancholy days of winter. These songs tinged with love and loss cannot help but resonate within us all-an effect that is only intensified by Joshua's amazing voice.
My only real gripe with the album is that it only has six songs on it- this is defiantly not enough to fulfill my Joshua Radin fix but it is a very good beginning to what I am sure will be a long career!

Breathtaking......... Nov 24, 2004
I just got this CD in the mail this morning and I've played it about 5 times already. It's beautiful...his voice is amazing. I can't wait for more!
