“My favorite song on the album. As a whole, it feels like a completely different experience, starting with her sing-song voice and ending with striking piano keys. Perfect.”

“Look me in the eye after you listen to this song, and tell me that you can't help but want to sing and sway and be lovesick as well.”

“A hushed, uh...pretty version of the Guns N Roses classic. If Guns had done it this way, it probably wouldn't have been a hit. But this is good. Nice.”

“I can't recommend this enough!! Like strolling along in a park, the birds are singing, the sky is blue, and the flowers are in bloom. ”

“Just as The Concretes looked like they were going to get big, lead singer Victoria Bergsman left them behind her to record as Taken by Trees. Hers was the sweet voice playing opposite the male singer in the super-catchy "Young Folks" single by Peter, Bjorn, and John. This Swedish singer turned her melancholy voice towards an unexpected cover of "Sweet Child O' Mine" by Guns 'N Roses, prettying up the melody of the original and making it sound like something Belle & Sebastian might perform. It's some serious musical alchemy and the result is pure gold.”
