Times Like These
Editorial Review
Jack Johnson has found himself a groove. Indeed, the Hawaiian surfing champion turned alternative pop-folk star really hasn't changed things one iota for his sophomore release. Fans of Brushfire Fairytales should be delighted with the results. The groove is a mellow one--most of the 16 tracks here are semi-acoustic--and that easy-going spirit filters into Johnson's lyrical philosophies. "What will be will be / And so it goes" he sings on "Times Like These," the opening track. Thankfully, Johnson is never too mellow, and there's a "Don't worry, be happy" vibe to most of his music. "The Horizon Has Been Defeated" even has a pseudo-reggae feel to it. Although classified as an alternative musician, the singer-songwriter's compositions owe much to past hits. "Traffic in the Sky" is reminiscent of Jim Croce's "Operator" and Looking Glass's one-hit-wonder, "Brandy." On the splendid "Taylor," Johnson sounds an awful lot like Donovan. And "By The Way" recalls the Lovin' Spoonful. -- Bill Holdship

2 Not nearly as good/fresh as Brushfire
I eagerly anticipated the second installment of J.Johnson, but was unfortunately let down. His fiorst album had a vibe and sound all it's own, although several of the songs were similar in style, they were different enough to make them unique and enjoyable. On and On does just that, goes on and on sounding the same almost all the way through, very redundant and almost too similar to Brushfire without the freshness. I wouldn't recommend it, but go ahead if you want to hear his new stuff

4 ahhh... hawaii.
one of the reasons i ever want to pick up a guitar and learn it is so i can cover jack johnson songs over the campfire. just like the rest of america i had no clue who jack johnson was. except i heard him on a number of message boards and everyone says he plays mellow hawaian songs. so i decided i needed a few mellow cds in my collection and i got on and on. i cant say im speechless or that it sucks or anything all i can say is it totally met my expectations. i mean none of the songs are quite memorable but they all have the same effect i like that. its a great cd to pop on when your on a long trip and its raining. i like it because its not too poppy but very simple if anything everyone needs a cd like this in their collection

5 JACK GOT IT RIGHT!!!
From song 1 to song 16 jack johnson did an awsome job. If you are looking for a cd to just relax too this is the one for you. He has done two videos of On and On. Taylor was an awsome video he had ben stiller in it. If you get a chance check it out. The Horizon has Been Defeated was the other one. Also good. Just listening to the cd gives you good vibes. You listen to one song and its very hard to not listen to the rest. Pick it up if you don't have it.

5 Excellent Album
For those of you who love Ben Harper and G Love this is a must have. I've been listening to G Love since day 1 and when I heard Brushfire Fairytales (Jack Johnson's First album) - I said "Ok a few a good songs. Excellent style. Need more Content." - This album has more content. Could use a little more quick tempo songs overall but #4(Taylor) and 7,8,12,13(Remake of Rodeo Clowns from G Love and Jack Johnson) are outstanding tunes.Grab a beer. Grab your women. Sit on the deck. Watch the sunset and enjoy this album.

5 Why Stop A Good Thing?
Jack Johnson never misses a beat on his follow-up album "On And On." Much anticipated after his debut "Brushfire Fairytales," the new album stays true to the slow, smooth, catchy, Bob Marley-esque, style that warmed the hearts of millions of fans. Although you won't find much experimentation on this album (partly because Jack wrote many of the songs in the same period he did for Brushfire), the entire album is solid and plays nicely the entire way though. I will add that Jack has really polished his sound in the last two years, and "On And On" flows much more smoothly than Brusfire (if that's even possible!!) The best thing about the new album is the fact that Jack has proved he can build a legacy of rock-solid laid-back acoustic guitar blues rock sweetened by heart-warming lyrics for years to come!If you liked the first album, this one's a no-brainer. And if you haven't heard of Jack Johnson before...Where Have You Been?? Buy this CD immediately!!

5 The Future
In "On and On" Jack Johnson continues to defend his claim to his seat in the arena of Dave Mathews. Phenominal CD altogether. It felt as if he stepped out of the studo ideology for this CD producing songs that were just as long as each of them needed to be without trying to find the catchy chourus or beat that radio top 10 programmers drool over. Perfectly unspoiled. Every song allows you to close your eyes and propel yourself to a sunny beach in Maui. Provided he continues to produce this quality of music he is on his way to being immortalized in the very same way that DMB is for many. Surfing, Cinemotography, and music were his carrer options. There is no doubt in my mind that he made the right decision. Buy either one of his CD's (or both) and you'll agree.

5 A Quality Follow Up
On and On has quality rhythms, funky lyrics, decent guitar work and a mellow, calming, quasi-philosophical vibe that made Brushfire Fairytales such a success. In short, Johnson didn't need to change anything to make the kind of album the former surfer dude wanted to make. Hey, if it ain't broke, dont fix it, right?The opener Times Like These uses the album title like a haunting mantre coming from Johnson's eerily soothing voice. It gets stuck in your head like so much peanut butter on the roof of your mouth, but not in the annoying way so much pop does nowadays. And so it goes the rest of the album. Johnson uses the same formula from Brushfire Fairytales that allowed him to walk the fine line between mellow and boring and stay on the interesting side, alternating between more energetic tracks like Rodeo Clowns and Holes To Heaven and lower-keyed, more melodic tunes like Cookie Jar and Gone that make you want to take a nap in a hammock with a guitar in your hands.On and On definitely operates better as an example of the album medium than Brushfire did. The production is less aggressive and more creative. The lyrics are more thoughtful and thought provoking: "Gone, going, gone, everything gone give a damn/Gone be the birds if they don't wanna sing/Gone people, all awkward with their things/Gone." While not so much the marker of the maturation of an artist, On and On delivers more and better of the same. If you didn't like Brushfire Fairytales for whatever warped reason you have you probably won't like this, but I don't see why.

5 the king of the genre
I was very skeptical when people kept telling me I needed to check out Jack Johnson's music. Usually, I don't take it as a good sign when the masses flock to something, but good grief, this is a fantastic album.Lyrically, he touches on some serious themes like in "Holes to Heaven" and "Cookie Jar." However, it isn't preachy or anything, which is a big plus. I also like the minimal instrumentation: acoustic guitar, bass and drums. Nothing flashy or big and fancy. It's like party music with substance. Jack Johnson, while not sounding like Dave Matthews is what I kind of wish Dave Matthews was. Low key instrumentation with some heady subject matter and then a bunch of good time songs.You can tell from the music that Johnson is someone that grew up around the ocean. It's just so laid back and summertime feeling. You can also hear traces of Hawaiian music in his otherwise original style.I can't recommend this highly enough.

5 Great, but not as good as Brushfire Fairytales
After Brushfire Fairytales, Jack Johnson has rapidly integrated himself into a list of my favorite artists, which include Dave Matthews and other such performers. I had been counting down the days until this Cd came out and I bought it the morning it came out. The CD is great. It is more mellow than his first release. The music is great. Jack is great ont he guitar and some of the beats the three performers create are fantastic. The only place that it falls short in is the song-writing. The lyrics aren't as great as they were on his first album. Several songs, such as "Cookie Jar" stand out for lyrical meaning, but songs like "The Horizon had been Defeated," while fun to listen to, lack mosr dpeth in the lyrics and it reaches a state of funkiness with lyrics like "thingamajigsaw puzzle." This isn't a bad thing though. Th album is very enjoyable to listen to and I would reccomend it to anyone who wants a good CD to chill to. Some standout songs include "Taylor," "Wasting Time," "Rodeo Clowns" and "Mediocre Bad Guys." In all, this CD is much more mellow than "Brushfire fairytales" and the music is much more intoxicating, but the lyrics don't pack as much of a punch as they did on "Brushfire Fairytales." It is still a great album by an artist who is sure to evolve into a favorite among many.

5 Liberating and relaxing
This is one of my favorite albums in a long time. I loved Jack's first release, but this one even manages to beat it by a stride. It makes me sad when I read all the reviews on here bashing this release for various reasons. DMB-rip off, too simple, etc... It makes me sad, because so many people are missing the point. Nothing here is supposed to be groundbreaking. It's not even written to be highly successful. Jack is simply writing for fun, to relax, and to share good times with friends and family. Which is exactly what this album is great for.The whole idea here (atleast for me) is to just turn it up, relax, and step back and truly enjoy your life. There's something about this music that makes me think of long drives in the summer around dusk, and if that's not a comforting thought, I don't know what is. Tracks like "Times Like These", "Horizon Has Been Defeated", and "Taylor" are extremely fun and bouncy and can't help but brighten the mood. While some of the tracks later on in the album such as "Cookie Jar" may not be as upbeat, the message is still a positive one, and a great listen. I would definitely suggest this to anyone who is looking to slow things down a bit and just enjoy life as it comes.

5 Great CD
Jack Johnson's On And On is a great CD to just chill and listen to. Has great guitar and vocals throughout the whole CD, not just a few good songs like most. My favorites are Gone, Taylor, Holes To Heaven, and Wasting Time. Also, most of the lyrics on his songs hit deep and actually mean something. I would recommend this album to anyone who likes Ben Harper, John Mayer, or OAR. They all have that mellow and laid back vibe.1. Times Like These-great song, i love the verses in the song, not a great chourus2.Horizon Has Been Defeated-great sound, not great lyrics but good to listen to3.Traffic in the Sky-one of my favorite songs on the album, I believe that many people who wanna mellow out will enjoy this.4.Taylor-great guitar, decent lyrics, one of my faves and shows a good message if you pick up the subtext5.Gone-in my opinion the best song on the CD, great lyrics and decent music6.Cupid-good song not my fav but still good7.Wasting Time-decent sound but GREAT lyrics i love how he points out "Everybody else"8.Holes to Heaven-good guitar, good lyrics, good vocals, good bass, and good percussion, all around good song9.Dreams Be Dreams-like this song because I think Jack shows your part of himself and what he is feeling10.Tomorrow Morning-starts kinda slow but still a good mellow out song11.Fall Line-again not one of my faves but still easy to listen too12.Cookie Jar-nice'n slow13.Rodeo Clowns-a little more upbeat kinda reminds me more of ben harper with a little less bongo14.Cocoon-very slow and a nice chorus15.Mediocre Bad Guys-doesnt sound like typical Jack Johnson but I love the chourus16.Symbol in my Driveway-good way to end a CD and I think its a nice song Anyone I have ever entroduced this CD to has loved it. No matter the age, sex, race, or anything everyone from my dad to some of my friends we all love it and I would reccomend it to ANYONE

5 One of the best albums of 2003
Like Ani DiFranco, Jack Johnson reminds you of the power of folk music. Jack Johnson has a feel for funk music that seeps into every song, making this album laid back and danceable at the same time. His voice is the perfect counterpart to the songs. He has a deep, expressive voice. The lyrics are impressive, too. Jack Johnson combines a smart sense of humor with political awareness. He's even thrown in a few biographical songs --- he sings about women who have lost their way and neighbors who have trouble getting along.The combination of all of these elements makes this a five-star album. Jack Johnson knows how to write a catchy song, but he keeps things simple and short, never overdoing it. He'd rather stop and get to the next song than bore you. You can listen to this album all day long without getting sick of it --- and without finding a single bad song. And one more thing: If you buy this CD, you'll be supporting an independent artist. Unlike most musicians, Jack Johnson owns the copyright on his songs. If you buy this CD, you'll cut out the record company middle men.

2 Could be called Brushfire Fairytales, Take 2
And while I liked the first album a lot, I don't mean that as a compliment. This album sounds so much like his first album that buying it is simply unnecessary. I already had a copy of Brushfire Fairytales and I want my money back!! There are generally two types of complaints that follow the release of an artist's sophomore CD: (1) It's too different! I wanted it to be like the first CD or (2) It's too similar. I want to see some musical growth! These kind of complaints make it difficult for an artist to produce something that's not going to earn some critism. But some artists slightly alter their formula, but make it similar enough to be accessible. Not true with Johnson. He didn't change his sound at all. And the second time around, it's just not as entertaining. Although I like "Times Like These," for the most part I want to fall asleep listening to this, and normally mellow music makes me feel all right. Go with Brushfire instead, or try listening to Dispatch's masterpiece "Bang Bang."

4 jack johnson- "On And On"
Jack Johnson is an instantly likeable guy. i mean, seroiusly. his first album, brushfire fairytales, is by far one of the best albums released in a long time. his laid back style, his smooth lyrics, and oh that guitar. Jack Johnson is the real deal.On "On and on", He hardly changes a thing, And that is to our benefit. The sound is even more laid back (nothing nearly as catchy as 'flake'), but just as good. It's a nice, lazy record that, while not as good as brushfire, still holds it's own, quite formidably. it usually takes me a while to warm up to albums i like; but this one is instantly wonderful. The Real notable difference, is that johnson's conscience shines through much clearer on this outing. He tackles a more social arena. "Look at all those fancy clothes; but these can keep us warm, just like those. and what about your soul- is it straight from the mold, waiting to be sold?" he questions on "gone", one of the many standouts on this collection.my reccomendation: Throw this on, sit back, and just get immersed in the sound.

5 Another chill cd
"Chill, bluesy, mellow, California Surfer acoustic rock" I think that basically sums this album up. it's awsome.Jack Johnson's first cd is in my opinion, one of the greatest albums ever. And i think it was refreshing to hear acoustic guitars and creativity, because nowadays, everyone plays fast, pop-punk with distorted guitars that just never shut up. Jack's acoustic guitar and mellow voice are relaxing, and it's obvious that he's from hawaii. When i first heard his new cd, i thought to myself, "he did it again". it's a good cd to listen to while cruising down PCH after a good day at the beach. anyway, this cd isn't really that different from Brushfire Fairytales. It has the same style, but at the same time, the songs are creatively different and aren't just copies of his earlier songs. "taylor", "mediocre bad guys" and "cookie jar" are the best songs on this album. anyway, i only hope that jack stays true to his style, and doesn't change much, because he's awsome. if you liked Brushfire Fairytales, then buy this album!!!

5 Just when you thought that it couldn't get any better......
I really thought that after the 1,000th time I had listened to "Brushfire Fairytales" that Jack Johnson couldn't possibly put a better album together. With incredible songs from the last album that never got radio airplay such as "F Stop Blues" and "Fortunate Fool", one could only hope that the album to come would provide the same result. The album came out just yesterday, and I am already on my 4th rotation of it! I hate to say that it's better than the 1st album, time will only tell. "On and On" continues with the same vibe as "Brushfire Fairytales", sounding like the two may have even been recorded in the same session. The most surprising thing about the new album is that even though there are 16 songs, very few are more than 2:30 long. Here is my review of the album, song by song:1. "Times Like These" - not as good of an opener as "Inaudible Melodies", but still a great way to get into the feel of the album.2. "The Horizon Has Been Defeated" - standout song on the album, definitely has the most "vibe" to it.3. "Traffic in the Sky" - Good song, not one of the better ones.4. "Taylor" - the 2nd best song on the album. Great instrumental opening, gives the listener a small glimpse as to what seeing the band is like in concert.5. "Gone" - barely 2 minutes long, nice little diddy.6. "Cupid" - similar in length and rhythm to "Gone".7. "Wasting Time" - BEST song on the album! Incredible guitar riffs, sounds like it could be a continuation of "Posters" on the first album.8. "Holes to Heaven" - nice groove, great lyrics.9. "Dreams Be Dreams" - great song, enough said.10."Tomorrow Morning" - starts off sounding distant, then comes in, great bassline.11."Fall Line" - short but sweet.12."Cookie Jar" - one of the more minor sounding songs on the album, but still good.13."Rodeo Clowns" - remake of the original G-Love song, not quite as good, a little more mellow and left out the whistling part at the end.14."Cocoon" - most mellow song on the album, great to fall asleep to. Reminiscent of "The News" from the 1st album.15."Mediocre Bad Guys" - very unique sounding, great chorus, and probably the 2nd best song on the album. Saved the best for last. These last two songs almost sound as one, run right together.16."Symbol in my Driveway" - great ending song, uses the basic blues progression.Overall, this album HAS to receive 5/5 stars. Again, at first listen, it might even be better than the 1st album. Can't wait to see him live with Ben Harper in July.

4 Awesome Recording
I was first exposed to Jack Johnson's music when he appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman, and once I'd heard him sing, I knew that I had to find his CD. I am a huge fan of Dave Matthews, and Jack Johnson's lyrics, and his sound in general, remind me of something that you would hear on a DMB album - that's a big reason why he's become my favorite new artist. He has a really mellow sound to his songs, and although his lyrics may seem kind of "out there" at first, once you really listen to what he's trying to say, you come to appreciate his music on a whole different level entirely. My favorite songs on this album would have to be Times Like These, The Horizon Has Been Defeated, Taylor, Gone, and Dreams be Dreams, among others. If you like the mellow sound of artists like Dave Matthews, then I think you'll really like Jack Johnson.

4 He deleivers again
Jack Johnson's 2 albums do not grab you instantly, rather they grow better which each subsequent listen. So i don't quite love it as yet, but give me a few months and i probably will. However, something tells me i won't be dancing around like an idiot like i did to his previous songs "Mud foot ball" and "bubble toes". But its still good compared to anything else i've heard recently. Good songs include Taylor, Gone, Cupid, Cuccoon.P.S - Try to get a hold of the live cover of the song "High tide or low tide" by Jack Johnson and Ben Harper. It was originally sung by Bob Marley and the Wailers. I wish this one was on the album.

5 Jack Johnson Plays On and On and It's Fabulous!!
Jack Johnson's sophomore release "On And On" picks up where his debut "Brushfire Fairytales" left off. In all fairness, this could very well be considered the sequel to that album. Johnson utilizes the same group of musicians as the previous disc and continues to flourish with his soulful, playful and hook-layered songwriting.Musically, Jack Johnson's style is smooth and laid-back but never boring while his lyrics are pure inoffensive poetry.All 16 tracks on this album are standouts and are breaths of fresh air in the light of the teeny-bopper and 'image-saturated' music which unfortunately is all the rage these days. Hats off to Jack Johnson for another solid collection of great songs. On a personal note: Hats also go off to my friend Allison for introducing me to Jack Johnson's music. Thanks Alli.

5 Truly an amazing artist
I've seen Jack Johnson live in San Diego more times than I can count, and trust me, he always keeps you coming back for more. His sophomore album does nothing less than sparkle, and keeps close to his roots following his debut, Brushfire Fairytales. "Rodeo Clowns" and the "Horizion Has Been Defeated" gives in to that playful side, but he generally keeps the mood relaxed. Although some songs are a bit serious (Traffic in the Sky) and some are downright depressing (Cocoon), he keeps the heavier subjects light with his mellow voice and soft guitar. But what I TRULY love about this album is that in almost every track you can kick back and feel an ocean breeze and a beach feel that only he creates.

4 Take me to Hawaii
I just got done listening to Mr. Johnson's latest effort and it should be noted that the album was recorded in Hawaii which must allow Mr. Johnson to surf after recording a very nice follow up album to Brushfire Fairytales (see my review for more information on what he sounds like if you haven't heard him before).I really love the new album. And while I could write about how it sounds like the last one, is a great listen, and makes me want to pick up my accoustic (i already told of this with the first album). So whats new and to love about this album: Take the song "Cocoon" A beautiful track both musically and vocally, the song is one of the more reflective songs on the album but shows that Jack Johnson has a sensitivity and ability to sing from the soul. While I was hoping for a more soulful album, this album is an excellent counterpart to his first effort and will launch him into the stratosphere with listeners from all walks of life.Horizon has been Defeated is another example of how the lyrics are getting much more poetic, speaking of how as we get older the "horizon" begins to "Faaade."So pick it up, put it in, and enjoy.

3 Means Well
Jack Johnson's sophomore effort is good; it's nothing more, nothing less. He continues on with some pretty creative songwriting, but fails to take it to a new level. Lyrically he's the same "loveable, I'm a really nice person trying to please everyone" Jack that we grew to love on "Brushfire Fairytails". Some lyrics are quite confusing, for example, a lyrical excerpt from track 2, Jack boldly states "Hallelujah Zig Zag Nothing". Could anyone tell me what that means? Another insightful lyric from track 8, "The children were playing cricket with no shoes." Where does that lyric fit into an acoustic pop album? However, there are several stand out tracks on this album that will no doubt grab your attention. All in all, it's a good album to chill to, but it won't hold your attention for too many listens. One thing definitely remains clear...this guy loves surfing.

5 a genius work that i wish i could better describe
frankly, words don't do justice...I liked Brushfire, but i cannot get over what an incredibly RICH album On and On is! I cannot take this album out of my cd player: at home, in the car, at work, back in the car, and finally at home again. you get the point.those who don't see the genius in Jack's soulful simplicity are missing the point. sure, at first, one might think "geez, it's all a bunch of somewhat repetitive chords and basic rhythm structures." well, my advice is that give the lyrics, beats, and melodies a very close listen - a collection of textures and moods that conveyed so beautifully, they'll move. This is one diverse and talented assembly of musicians. These songs are the raw and genuine goods - no additives. There's a time and place for the hoochie-mamma bump-n-grind Miller commercials, this sure ain't it. Amen. this album will remind you what is born of true human thought and talent.Please, do yourself a favor and buy this album - then, sit and take in the smoothness of this hawaiian bruddah. pure rapture. Thank you sooo much Jack Johnson for this wonderful gift. You've earned yourself a lifetime of good swells on whichever beach you happen to be surfing. Ikaika brah!

3 On and On by Jack Johnson
Hawaiann born surfer/musician Jack Johnson had a great deal of success with the release of his debut album, Brushfire Fairytales, based strictly on word of mouth. Now his sophomore album, On & On, is doing the exact same thing. With mellow & thought provoking songs over acoustic guitar backdrops, this is definetly a work of art not to be missed.The best song is easily "Tomorrow Morning", but other must listens include "The Horizon Has Been Defeated", "Dreams be Dreams", "Times like these" & "Cupid". Johnson's unique approach in thought and musical direction is very admirable, and his attack on our corrupt society comes off fantastically on "Cookie Jar".The only problem with this disc, is that the songs sound very much alike, especially the background music. He never raises his voice above a soft whisper, but I guess thats for the dramatic effect of the album. You would be foolish to pass on this release, I highly recommed it.

3 'On and On' indeed...
I purchased this CD because 'Brushfire Fairytales' was such an amazing album that I couldn't pass on the follow-up. What I got was the same Jack Johnson as the previous album - no surprises, new techniques, nothing to really set it apart from his first release. What I got from listening to it just once through was "wow, this sounds...just like the first album." Not to say that this is a negative thing; but for the casual Jack Johnson fan, just one CD is probably enough, and I'd say 'Brushfire Fairytales' would be the better choice. 'On and On' is the perfect CD to take on a weekend drive, to the beach, or just to listen to when feeling mellow, or aching to capture a carefree time in life.

5 Breezy...
Jack Johnson's CDs are not available in my country, but after I heard his latest single 'Sitting,Waiting,Wishing' on the radio I immediately fall in love with his music! ^^ So I borrowed 'On and On' from my friend and since then it's been playing in my cd player every single day.. I just lOVE it! Anywayz, here's my track-by-track review:1. Times Like These -- it's a great opening track,very mellow.. Kinda sets the tune for the whole album.. 4/52. The Horizon Has Been Defeated -- this one kinda sounds like reggae music but it's still fun.. 3.5/53. Traffic In The Sky -- one of the best songs.. it's been stuck in my head for quite a while now. =P really laid-back n mellow.. love it! ^^ 5/54. Taylor -- definitely the best song in this album! a really catchy song with great lyrics & it's really fun to listen to.. 5/55. Gone -- deep lyrics.. really slow n sounds kinda sad. 4.5/56. Cupid -- short & sweet! 4/57. Wasting Time -- actually b4 i got this cd, this is the 1st song off the album that i downloaded from the net and it's awesome! very laid-back & makes me wanna sing-along to d song.. 5/58. Holes To Heaven -- not bad, but it's so-so for me.. 3/59. Dreams Be Dreams -- inspiring lyrics,beautiful song.. 4/510. Tomorrow Morning -- one of the best songs.. great intro,very relaxing and there's lots of luv in it! =P 5/511. Fall Line -- a nice short song.. 3.5/512. Cookie Jar -- haunting melody,dark lyrics about d bad effects of TV.. 4/513. Rodeo Clowns -- awesome rhythm n kinda upbeat.. but i've heard another version of the song by Donavon in a surfing DVD and imo it's better coz it's faster & more upbeat.. 4.5/514. Cocoon -- one of d best.. really sad,deep lyrics,beautiful melody.. what else can u ask for? 5/515. Mediocre Bad Guys -- my least fave track on the album.. gets a little annoying after a while.. mediocre.. 3/516. Symbol In My Driveway -- it's an awesome track to end the album! i like the waves' sound in the background.. makes me feel like i'm at the beach.. 5/5You should really pay attention to the lyrics coz it has some stories n philosophy in it.. The depth of the lyrics r really refreshing for this kind of music coz we'll get bored easily if the lyrics suck.. Overall, this is a MUST HAVE CD for anyone who likes accoustic,laid-back music and even better for the fans of surfing culture.. Highly recommended! ^__^V
