EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Classics such as "Song for Ireland" and "Only a Woman's Heart" are well-known and had to be included, but are far from the finest material on the album. For pure wistfulness the opening ballad, a cover of Mary Chapin Carpenter's "The Moon and St. Christopher", is unsurpassed. "No Frontiers" tells a harder-edged story, and is the closest thing on this album to a protest song. "Carolina Rua" and "Tearing Up the Town" tell a brighter, slightly wilder story; "Katie" and "Ellis Island" ache for the loss of loved ones; and "Adam at the Window" is a gem of sheer sensuality. The stand-out track, however, is Noel Brazil's "Columbus", a bizarre, mysterious and deeply angst-ridden lament for the lives we never dare to live, with exquisite percussion and cello to add to the atmosphere of being lost in the middle of a deep dark ocean.
