The best song you won't hear, 5 Feb 2005
By John P. Thompson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Breathe / Gone Crazy / Mr Griber & His Cat (Audio CD)
It isn't likely Breathe will get any airplay on American radio...shame because it really shows why Erasure are the best band around.
They can take a simple tune and turn it into anything...a pop gem with the Radio and album version(too bad pop radio is on the R&B craze) an Adult Contemporary tear jerker(with the acoustic version), or a club filling stomp fest(the dance mixes). Erasure are so deep. You don't have to find their music...their music finds you. From 1986's Wonerland to 2005's Nightbird...there is no other band out there like Erasure. They have captured a sound all their own.
You should capture this single. The remixes are all good(especially the acoustic version) but the B-Sides are great as well. Gone Crazy is a sad tune...kind of a hybrid of songs you'd find on Cowboy and Loveboat albums...very pop but indy at the same time. Mr. Gribber is an instrumental that, to me at least, puts me down in the depths of the ocean exploring. Very haunting and beautiful piece of music.
The other great gem is the music video to Breathe. Having their DVD release of videos that was released last year...I must say that Breathe is probably their best video(up there with Stay With Me, Am I Right, SOS, Love To Hate You, In My Arms(US version)). The little girl actress is simply amazing. Really...she is. The video captures the essence of Breathe...dependency on one another to survive. A beautiful and sad music video...but one that you will watch over and over.
This is a no brainer. Buy this now. If you like AC, Pop or Dance music there is something for you here. If you like all three...even better. Plus the great video and a couple good B-Sides. Thank you Andy and Vince for another great single and an awesome album with Nightbird.

Pure pop, 13 Feb 2005
By T. Nguyen "nt-CA" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Breathe / Gone Crazy / Mr Griber & His Cat (Audio CD)
If the Eighties are back, then the Nineties can't be far behind. Erasure, who straddled the end of the Eighties and the beginning of the Nineties, should be a logical candidate to lead a new charge into another decade's revival.
The pair has a knack for crafting pop songs that revel in unabashed cliché (unlike the Pet Shop Boys). But that is not a fault. Actually, in an age of posers smitten with irony, Erasure's defiant smattering of the sweet, the melancholy, the honesty, is refreshing in the extreme. If you're looking for vintage--no, pure--Erasure, then this latest album should reconnect you deeper, by way of the superficial, to the 90s.

Thank you Andy and Vince!, 2 Feb 2005

I have been a long time fan of Erasure, and I could not wait for this to come out! Let me tell you...it was worth the wait! The remixes of Breathe are phenomenal but the B-sides are just as good! The original version sent chills up my spine and the acoustic is even better! Beautiful song! Keep the music coming!
