My Private Nation

They never disappoint me

I am a very appreciative fan of Train. They have two sides- the pop side, which they do very well and The blues side, which you never hear on the radio, but they rock out just the same! I thought after Drops of Jupiter they would peter out, but boy am I glad I was wrong. Every song on the CD is awesome. Personal fave- I'm About to Come Alive. One of the most honest love songs I have ever heard. If you can get it, there is a single they released of Led Zeppelin's Ramble On and that rocks too. They also did a pretty good job with the Spiderman 2 soundtrack "Ordinary"- a little overproduced but still a good song.

GREAT WORK

This album is good. When it was available, I immediately went to Barnes & Noble to get it. Calling all Angels is my favorite. I do hear their cry for help and their confusion about the future. Calling all Angels gives me hope. This group has worked so hard. It's time they receive recognition for their outstanding talent.

Excellent!!!!

I highly anticipated the release of "My Private Nation" having loved "Drops of Jupiter"! I am not disappointed! To me this CD has a little lighter feel to it then "Drops of Jupiter", but is just as good!! The lead vocals of Pat Monahan are great once again and the lyrics paint a picture and tell a story. I love it!!!

your call for an angel has been answered

I just love this CD. It's just as good as train's other CD's. I think if you like their style then this is the CD for you my friend. (oh and the other person who wrote about his knee, well, dude that's not a review ok man!)

This Train keeps rollin'

What a solid follow-up to "Drops of Jupiter". Too often bands and artists will re-hash a previous successful effort to hopefully ensure big sales. Despite losing a key member of the band, Train has evolved and explored new musical territory, and has established themselves as possibly the key American band in the industry. "Calling All Angels" is a worthy first single, but my choices are "Get to Me", and "All-American Girl". Great tunes for a long, summer drive!

A very good third cd

I definitely prefer this cd over Drops of Jupiter. My Private Nation has more of a rock feel than Drops of Jupiter ever had. I am still a little disappointed that Train continues with producer Brendan O'Brien, who seems to take away from Train's distinctive rock sound. My favorite songs on this cd are "Calling All Angels", "Get to Me", "Following Rita", and "My Private Nation". I think that the song Get to Me will be a huge hit for train

Not a bad album

I just purchased this album a few days ago...have listened to it once. It's a pretty good album -- mellow, light...just what you'd expect from Train. I guess anything after "Drops of Jupiter" would kind of be a slight "let-down" though. But the disc is definitely worth the money. Oh, by the way....hey, Yitz (author of one of the previous reviews), do everyone a favor and start start saving your "CD money" to pay for some electroshock treatments. I'm definitely glad that I don't know you personally, because I can tell from your entry that you're just one of those really annoying people who would be doing everyone a favor if they just took a dive off a bridge. Consider it.

Pretty Good CD

This ought to be pretty good. I can see myself listening to it. This band is really great for summertime music. My knee is killing me for some reason. Just my right knee. It's been acting up for about a year now. My lower back is also sore as heck from my crapppy matress. Both of my rotator cuffs are screwed up from lifting weights, so periodically they kick in, too. It's a bit of a juggling act with all of these ailments. Right now, it's my knee, though. I can't seem to pinpoint where exactly I damaged it, but I sure hope that it heals. Whoa, I just had a twitch in my leg, kind of like those twitches you get when you fall asleep. Those are called hypnic jerks, by the way. Look it up. If this cd is anything like the last couple Train cds, I think we're all in for a summertime treat. I'm looking forward to seeing them in concert, that is if my knee gets better.
