Thank you word of mouth because without you I would never had sought out the singles and then downloaded this album. This is one of the most catchy, carefree and enjoyable albums I've heard in a while and it's getting many plays on my CD player and iPod. With a voice like a Greco-Cymru Lily Allen fused with an updated Kate Bush and song writing talent to match, Marina's going to be big in 2010. Most of her songs, including the fantastic Mowgli's Road and Hermit The Frog demonstrate an exuberance and disregard for convention that show genius just on the knife edge of sanity, with lyrics that keep rushing at you like ants on a sugar rush, a verbal pile up looming should they trip. There are some great slower songs too, with I Am Not A Robot and Obsessions bound to get much airtime.
You really need to try this album. Rare that people say this and are right, but you will thank yourself you did.

Quite simply, i think this is a very underated album. There isn't one track that is bad, with several exceptionally good and i think personally that is a rarity these days.

Format:Audio CD
This is a great debut album, crammed full of instantly catchy pop hooks. I enjoyed this album the first time I heard it, and with repeated listening it just keeps getting better.
I only dip into pop music very occasionally, and it's rare that I find an entire album I enjoy, but you can't beat pop music for an instant sugary hit. This album is an excellent example of pop at it's best. Marina has a unique vocal style and large vocal range, the album is full of memorable tunes, and the production is excellent and rewards repeated listening.
If I manage to find just two more pop albums I enjoy this much within the next 12 months I'd be amazed and overjoyed.

Love the album
No problems with the music or anything just that the album case itself was a little dodgy. The paper on the back was upside-down so I had to open the case to flip it. Read more

14 amazing tracks by Marina and the Diamonds. Any fan of hers needs this CD and alternative fans need it too.

Quirky and Fun
Family Jewels is a nice approach to pop music. Marina may not offer anything deep but her style is definitely unique and catchy that you'll listen to her repeatedly.

Good songs, can get a bit repetitive
A good singer, recommended to me. Nice CD but songs are a bit repetitive. Don't think I would buy any more.

Ohhhhhhh Dear me!
If I was to summerise this album I would have to say that there isn't one good track on it. It doesn't grow on me having played it through 4 times. Read more
