    This man is something incredible...

    This is one of the only 2 CDs i can listen to continuously in my car, regardless of my mood. It's moody, it's funny, it's romantic, hopeless & it's pathetic. Anything that invokes such a myriad of feelings is too good to pass up!

  • Overall:

    I LOVE Matthew Sweet Music!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My friends think I'm demonistic because I listen and enjoy Divine Intervention... LOL... Also I love Winona off of this track, I listen to it an awful lot. Great stuff. You don't love me is another great one..

    Matthew Sweet's third album is a remarkable artistic breakthrough. Grounded in the guitar-pop of the Beatles, Big Star, Byrds, R.E.M., and Neil Young, Girlfriend melds all of Sweet's influences into one majestic, wrenching sound that encompasses both the gentle country-rock of "Winona" and the winding guitars of the title track and "Divine Intervention." Sweet's music might have recognizable roots, but Girlfriend never sounds derivative; thanks to his exceptional songwriting, the album is a fresh, original interpretation of a classic sound.
