It was okay
a disappointed fan | Rockford, IL | 02/10/2004
(3 out of 5 stars)

"I had been a devoted follower of Howie's growing magnification, and lately I've felt a little let down ...
This comment probably makes no difference since Howie and his supporters are very successful without my opinion. However, I simpy wanted to mention that my first experience with Howie Day was when he opened-up for Tori Amos at the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago a few years back. I fell in love!!! He had amazing solo stage-presence. I enjoyed him so much, that I went out & bought AUSTRALIA the next day, and I completely fawned at the MADRIGALS release.
I was so excited when I found out he was headlining Chicago's Vic Theatre in October (2003) & immediately bought tickets. A few days later, I purchased STOP ALL THE WORLD NOW. I loved the piano ballad, but otherwise I was disappointed in the rather "poppy" sound in a majority of the album, but figured the upcoming live show would make up for it.
The show at the Vic was even more disappointing than his new release. His cheesy backup band really turned me off. I am much more fond his solo performances with sinewy, emotional vocals and echoing guitar rifs... They were much more powerful, and I wish I could hear more! Until then, I've strayed away. I miss the "old Howie"!!!"
Excellent Sophomore Release by a Great Young Artist

"Howie Day is a very talented singer-songwriter. If you have heard his first album, *Australia*, and liked his signature song, "She Says," this CD gives you the 2003 version of it with a beautiful string arrangement around it. It adds a beautiful depth that gives an excellent contrast to his original version of the song. Both versions are great for different reasons.His sophomore release is clean, polished, and matured. SATWN provides a natural evolution from the material on *Australia*. As Howie says in the DVD (more on that later), it gives a nice snapshot on where Howie and his music are in 2003. "Perfect Time of Day" is really strong (particularly the chorus); "Collide" and "End of Our Days" may be my favorites from the new material. Again, my absolute favorite (and probably always will be) is "She Says."My take on the DVD (Limted Edition only):I never have met Howie. Having listened to his music since he visited Detroit in 2001, I certainly have my own impression of what I think Howie is like, if his music says anything about him. When I popped the DVD into my player and watched it, on my television appeared the Howie Day that I expected. As quite a few reviewers have commented, Howie is a very young man with an "old soul," and that is exactly what came across to me when I watched him on this DVD. I saw a very talented singer-songwriter with a lot of depth. Just as importantly, I saw a *real person* - I got to see a glimpse into Howie's personality. Hearing just his voice and a piano for "End of Our Days," to me, was just amazing.Was it too short? Sure. I think, though, that it made its point - at least it did to me."
Howie Day's Made A New Fan Out Of Me

"This CD is simply amazing. To start off, I have never heard of Howie Day, needless to say his music before...at least not until I happened to be at Fry's Electronics a few weeks ago in northern Cal when the store was playing this album out loud at its music demo station. The moment the first song on this album "Brace Yourself" started playing, I dropped what I was doing and followed the sound of this beautiful song to where the music was playing just to try and figure out who it was by. At first I thought it was a new song by the group "Five For Fighting". Only later did I realize that it was by Howie Day (a name I've never heard of before, but whose music I'm sure I will embrace from now on). Well, after listening to "brace yourself", I thought to myself whether this is one of those CDs with just one good song, so I scanned the rest of the tracks, and to my surprise almost every single song on this CD is beyond my expectation. I love "Brace Yourself". Other of my favs are "Perfect Time Of Day", "Collide", "Trouble In Here", "You & A Promise" & "She Says". By the way, I noticed that everytime the store puts this CD on, it always attracts someone's attention. It's just that good!If you get the special edition of this album, it comes with a DVD that offers you a glimpse at the production team behind Howie Day's music. It includes things like recording session footage and interview. The DVD disk is approximately 30 min long."
