Probably the most under-rated, and definitely my most fave of Davids early work. Sell is full of gems that offer us up-tempo and his signature confessional, brooding style, wrapped up in his unique delivery of vocal performance."Everytime" is classic DG music."Late Night Radio" is one of those great "car songs" you enjoy most on a long drive. Magdalena is foot tapping fun..."Gutters Full of Rain, Hold On To Nothing" & Only The Lonely" are such beautifully composed ballads and "What Am I Doing Wrong" is one of those rare songs that seduces and haunts you at the same time..its been a fave since first listen and became a coveted treasure over time, which can be said for this whole compilation. Other songs too good not to mention- "Forever Is Tomorrow Is Today" and Folk Song. Sell is must have for your DG collection, it showcases his evolution as an artist while it pulls at those deep rooted emotions in all of us.

Famed sportswriter Red Smith once said, "There's nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and open a vein." All David Gray does on White Ladder is open a vein, and we are all the better for it. He is, without a doubt, one of the best songwriters on this planet. No one else speaks better to the heart.

Life in Slow Motion is my favorite album of all time! It is one of the only albums that I can listen to from beginning to end, without skipping at track, and when it's finished, I'll go right back to the start and play it again. My personal highlights are Hospital Food and Lately. David's writing goes from strength to strength and his voice is heartbreakingly beautiful. For me, this is the definitive album. Oh, and saw David on Sunday night in Leeds, fantastic and love the new band! Rebecca

I had never heard of David Gray (where have I been?) but when I heard the song 'Transformation' on YouTube I drove into town and bougt this album. LOVE IT! Beautiful voice, great energy. It's unusual for me to like all the songs on an album; but I honestly enjoy every one of these. Now I just have to catch up and buy all his other albums!

This album is fantastic, from the new single Fugitive to the beautiful Nemesis (definitely my second favourite song on the album). My absoluter favourite song is the collaboration with Annie Lennox. What a duet. Their voices compliment each other to no end. As usual, a perfect album without a flaw. Typical David Gray. Even though Davids voice alone could carry any song, it is the pure emotion that makes his albums unique.Hopefully there will be many more to come - Katie.
