ReviewsRanked #28 in Spin's "40 Best Albums Of 2005" - "His falsetto resonates with the power of decidedly nonmale vocalists like Nico and Nina Simone...", "A Strings-Garnished Plunge Into the Depths of Heartbreak (And Gender-Bending) ..."-Grade: B+, 5 Stars Out of 5-"This Is Tough, Honest, Uncompromising Beauty and the Next Great Voice in Music.", Ranked #10 in Entertainment Weekly's 'Top Ten Records of the Year' - "The music - equal parts muted cabaret and heavenly modern hymns - flies like the bird of the title.", Included in the Wire's "2005 Rewind: 50 Records of the Year.", "It's Antony's Voice That Will Move You, Make You Swoon.", Ranked #43 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "Lonesome tales of heartbreak, longing and loss, finally arriving at some kind of redemption. An essential journey.", 4 stars out of 5 - "Antony's eloquent tales of alienation an love, played with Bad Seeds vigour by The Johnsons, are precious but palatable, and provoke compelling vocals from seasoned outsiders.", 4 stars out of 5 - "Antony's voice is an instrument of delicacy and rapture in which Nina Simone, Morrissey and Joni Mitchell seem to inhabit the same breath...", "Scarily Intimate and Irresistibly Beautiful."-Grade: A-, Ranked #1 in Mojo's "The 50 Best Albums Of 2005" - "Not just a truly brilliant record, but a record that seemed to promise that the pop music mainstream need never be the same again."
