Seeing this cd on ebay brought back memories of the mid to late 90's and a tape which I played in my car on long drives. I had originally obtained a copy of Stunt simply for the big hit single One Week, which is a mixture of cracking tune, great lyrics (if somewhat strange), and an interesting bit of mid-west white man rapping in the middle. Dr Dre would never say "Chickety China, The Chinese chicken, you have a drumstick, and your heart stops ticking"! The other top track on the album is the delightful ballad, Light Up My Room, which is as gentle a love song as you would hear, but in no ways soppy for want of a better word. The rest of the album is filled with some really good songs, musically and lyrically, with a great diversity in tempo and emphasis. For a top example of 90's songwriting, check out The Barenaked Ladies. A cunning Stunt, indeed.Read full review
Anyone who has to read a review of this album is clearly a bit mad. Stunt is probably Barenaked Ladies finest work. It is so quintessentially late 90's it can't fail to bring back some memories of a simpler time. The music itself is an eclectic hybrid of MOR rock, folk and pop with many references thrown to the pop culture of the era. The 2 disc version provides the buyer with 2 version of the amazing song "Brian Wilson" and a live version of the ever brilliant "If I Had a Million Dollars". The long and short of it is, when you can purchase this record on eBay for less than 3 quid, it is certainly money well spent. I'd go so far as to say that it's almost impossible to find someone who doesn't enjoy at least half the tracks on this album.
I already had 1 Barenaked Ladies album, and enjoyed it so much that I decided to buy this one also. It totally lives up to the quality that I was expecting. The first track on this album- One Week, is such a catchy tune. The music is fast and up beat with excellent, funny lyrics that are easy to relate too. Whenever I hear this track I cant help but dance. This song will definately get your feet tapping. The rest of the album continues in similar fashion, with great music and lyrics. Easy listening with a very distinctive sound. Everyone should have at least this one album in their collection. Very enjoyable and the sort of cd that you never tire of listening to.
