About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Barenaked Ladies are a little less interested in the quirky and comic on their second album, perhaps recognizing that They Might Be Giants have that niche covered. Instead, though, they are showing their sensitive folk-pop roots, which makes them winning, if a little wet. (XTC, anyone?) But one thing they aren't is "alternative," a matter dealt with in the chorus of the song "Alternative Girlfriend," when they sing, "There's nothing left that won't cross over." Well put, and present company included. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide

Most underrated BNL releaseby Anonymous

May 04, 2004: "Maybe You Should Drive" seems to get the same comment a lot: it's not their best, but it's still good. I can agree with that to a point, but BNL's material has varied so much over the years that it may be better to say "Maybe You Should Drive" is just a different kind of good. This album as a whole represents what I think are the band's most touching and reflective moments. Also, Andy Creeggan's musical touches make this album shine. "The Wrong Man Was Convicted" makes you hurt inside, and "Intermittently" makes you scream with joy (if I hear that song once, I can't move on with my life until I listen to it eight more times). If you like pop radio, go with BNL's "Maroon" or "Everything to Everyone," but if you like folksier tunes, maybe you should get "Maybe You Should Drive."

July 31, 2003: Since I have nothing else to do with my pathetic little life I thought I might try to help people lost in this business of muisic. BNL is a terrific band. I'm a huge fan, but probably not their number 1 fan. It's not their best work, but the lyrics are beautifully written. If you really want to get into BNL, look into purchasing their first CD, Gordon. That's their best piece of work!
