Tegan and Sara have created a unique style, best discovered on their most recent album "the Con". For all Tegan and Sara fan's "If it was You" is a much needed album to add to the collection, however it is not their best. This album branches away from "Business of Art" and marks a beginning in their discovery for their unique sound. This cd includes what I like to call Tegan and Sara classic's such as "Monday, Monday, Monday" and "Not Tonight". These catchy, yet very well thought out songs are often heard on You tube as well as mixed CD's and Ipod's of Tegan and Sara fans. Check it out for yourself. Although this is not my favorite Tegan and Sara CD, the dynamics, structure, and emotions behind each song are very well thought out.

The first album I bought from Tegan and Sara was "The Con" and then "So Jealous" and now "If it was you" and I love them all. I dig their music in such a way that I have to turn it up to take in all the elements of the song. These are very talented singer/songwriters and I'm so glad I found them. Give this album a listen and if you like it don't hesitate to get "So Jealous" and "The Con". If you get "The Con" make sure you get the one with the DVD with it.

I'm a new T&S fan and bought this cd and "So Jealous" after reading Amazon reviews. T&S have great, unique voices and the lyrics are actually worth listening to. The music on this album is so varied so you get the perfect mix of unplugged stuff and tracks that rock but don't shred your nerves. Great music to drive to or to tune out my coworkers ;)

Once again, another album that I can't get enough of and one where every single song is great - these girls speak to me - looking for sad, sick people like me in the single "I Hear Noises" the first song I ever heard by the duo, they also rant and rave when they go all "City Girl" on the one who done them wrong and the breathy and refreshing "Not Tonight" ("Love pull your sore ribs in/ I will pull your tangles out/ In the back of your car I feel like I have travelled nowhere/ what will bring me hope/ what will make me stay"), the uber brilliance of the other single "Monday Monday Monday" and the very Kirsty MacColl-ish "I Want To Be Bad." There's even an interesting mandolin leading around in "Living Room" reminding me of Ditty Bops meeting Tanya Donnelly; all in all, If It Was You is the perfect Tegan & Sara starting point, though it's their second album, if you're unfamiliar I'd start with this one and then go to the newest one - which is almost as good.
