"First of all, they sound pretty good live. As for this CD, it kind of reminded me of Dashboard's Unplugged CD. Most of the audience sounds like teenage girls as whenever the band performed their hit songs, you hear the high pitch screaming in the background, and they sing along word for word. If you are a hardcore Fray fan, you might enjoy some of the tracks where Slade talks to the audience. On one, he starts out, "It's a poem that I wrote as a small child....""

Great album!

"I must say the Fray live is amazing! all the songs are very deep and there are some great vocals/

How to Save a Life:5/5

She is: 4/5 but becomes 5/5 in the second half or so

All at Once: 5/5

Heaven Forbid:5/5 Best vocals on the album and a cathcy melody

Vienna:5/5 great lyrics very touching

Dead Wrong:4/5 good but the is not as catchy

Over my Head (Cable Car): 4/5 good, but overplayed, and does not seem to fit well with everything else on the album

Look After You: 5/5 great music: vocals, melody, all amazing

Trust me: very relaxed and quiet, a great closer

With almost all these songs their chorus and/or middle is the strongest part (Vienna, How to Save a Life, Look after You) and their beginings tend to earn a 4 rather then a 5 but almost all amaze you by the end of the song."

Eh....

"I think they sound great live, and it really shows off their talent, but i hated the screaming teeny-boppers singing along, they should have recorded this in a studio"
