The follow-up to the critically acclaimed "Hidden Vagenda" represents not only Dawson's continued personal adaptation to the tumultuous world around her, but also the growing relationship between fans and friends. Using humor and sorrow as a personal healing device, on this twelve-song CD, Dawson continues to expose the subtle and sometimes serious pains we all face, in order to temper them with understanding and laughter. "It's not what Kimya says, but how she says it. She's got a knack for playing with words. In the end you want to laugh and cry and probably hug someone. Kimya delivers deeply personal, uncompromising songwriting tucked into intelligent and clever lyrics" - Under The Radar.

Summary: leaves you smiling
Comment: I can assume that I am one of many that hadn't heard of Kimya Dawson until Juno, and "Remember That I Love You" features most of the songs she contributed to the soundtrack. I expected that these songs would all be the standouts, and though Loose Lips is possibly still the best song on the album with a catchy-as-hell chorus and cheery tune, the whole album is strong start to finish.

I'm usually one to go for punk, hardcore, metal and the like, but the fact that this is acoustic and more pop than the Moldy Peaches wasn't a factor - I enjoyed especially "My Mom", "Underground" and "I Like Giants", as well as Tire Swing, Loose Lips and the full version of My Rollercoaster, which even features a little Metallica reference.

This isn't music that I'd typically listen to, but I loved it. Definitely worth the purchase.

Summary: Musical, funny, story-telling
Comment: Perfect music for adolescent girls, with the added benefit that their moms (I'm 30) will love it too.
Kimya is a solid, talented voice for girls.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Short and Sweet
Comment: It's a good CD that I reccomend if you enjoyed the music you heard from her on the Juno soundtrack.

However, for 15 dollars you'd think they wouldn't completely F you in the A on the packaging. All you get is a simple cardboard sleeve which offers absolutely zero protection for your 15 dollar investment in this band. Way to skimp. I'd understand this if the CD cost 6-10 dollars - but being as this is one of the most expensive CD's I've purchased in a long time you'd expect some sort of decent treatment for the physical product.

Summary: Awesome lyrics and music!
Comment: Kimya Dawson produces such amazing lyrics and music! Since hearing her music in the film 'Juno,' I've been hooked. Bashed by Barbara Walters as "I don't know what they see . . ." because of her non-glitz style, she
may be THE poet of today.
