Postal Service
 GIVE UP $15.98 Great album, great price, lots of extra's! Poster art, EXTRA LARGE album booklet, and a second disc of remixed singles!  Such Great Heights $3.98 If you've only heard one song by The Postal Service, there's a good chance it's "Such Great Heights." If you're trying to decide between buying its parent album (Give Up) or buying just the single, I would strongly advise checking out the album. It's a strong, cohesive work, and if you're a fan of "Such Great Heights," you will likely find the other songs appealing as well. However, this single makes a great supplement to Give Up. "There's Never Enough Time" is a simple but effective song that would not have been out of place on the album. The Shins do a great version of "We Will Become Silhouettes" that rivals the original. The Iron & Wine version of "Such Great Heights" is not to my taste, as I find this arrangement drags too much and does not effectively convey the feeling of a well-written song; however, fans of modern folk may find it appealing. For a great remix of "Such Great Heights," consider also picking up The District Sleeps Alone Tonight.  The District Sleeps Alone Tonight $3.98 I love the melodies in this excellent CD. Anyone who likes DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE and techno will enjoy The Postal Service |
