5.0 out of 5 stars Mind-blowing!, 19 Nov 2003
Don't let the fact that Placebo released this special edition after the one-disc original repel you from the music altogether - "Sleeping With Ghosts" is a wonderful record brimming with musical diversity, beautiful instrumentals and Brian Molko's awesome vocals. My favorite track is the soft and sensual "Special Needs", evocative and atmospheric to a point that it's haunting. Since I've actually heard the second disc, I don't know much about what the special edition entails but BUY this record - this is high quality music that can't be beaten.

3.0 out of 5 stars copy protected poor sound quality, 4 Jan 2008
By Mr. J. Knox "knoxy" (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Sleeping with Ghosts (Audio CD)
great album and cover cd completely spoiled by having copy protection.
Not being able to rip this album for my own use is bad enough but having to listen through a poor player with virtually no controls at VERY poor quility 40kbs on album and 128 on covers is outrageous. its one thing to be against piracy it is another to rip off fans using shoddy technology.
if i buy an album I should be able to decide how i listen to it, on cd player (which doesnt work properly with many cracks and pops throughout the album) on pc, which cant have other heavy use programs running in the background because the stand alone player uses lots of resources (never had a problem with windows media, vlc player, nero player etc..) or ripped to my mp3 player, with cant be done because it is copy protected. well this means infact in order to listen to the album that i will have to find an illegal copy online to download , because i refuse to buy it again from itunes as i have already bought it once.and why didnt i just buy from itunes originally you may ask--well i like having a hard copy incase ipod or pc hard disc dies, because itunes have proved unreliable in the past with storing bought tracks and also with replacing tracks previously bought even though liscense was provided.

5.0 out of 5 stars New fan for hot sheep pop, 22 Oct 2003
By A Customer
One thing about living in a small town with only one wee record shop is that you'll occasionally buy something you might never have dreamt of buying in another situation - which is how I finished up with a copy of Ghosts and which is also why I immediately bought all the other Placebo stuff in the shop too. I was attracted mainly by the covers disc and it really is a wonderful mix - keen and crashing versions of thrilling songs - listen to Chilton's Holocaust - spinetingling. Only Big Mouth doesn't work vocally - the ghostly tone of Moz is just too strong. And the Placedo songs are excellent too - some of the best post-Smiths guitar smacking you'll ever hear - while that distinctive voice, half irritable sheep, half underfed Persian cat, really grows on you. The lyrics are inevitably the doomy decadent teenagey drug & disease stuff which old Brian is famous for & should be about to grow out of but there's wit as well and all in all this cd was an immensely pleasant surprise.
