"Though Yusuf's voice is just a bit sandy around the edges compared to his salad days, his performances are passionate without histrionics and with wisdom he wants to share with all those willing to listen. It's a well-crafted and often moving album that mixes a bit of Cat Stevens' sound with Yusuf's heart and soul, and it honors both with skill and sincerity".

"If you can hack the God stuff there are some lovely tunes along the way".

"det er det nu svært ikke at holde af albummet, hvis man er glad for Stevens og hans bagkatalog (...) Han lyder nemlig - igen - i påfaldende grad som sig selv. Både vokalt, hvor hans sprøde stemme fremstår så smukt som nogensinde og i rent poetisk forstand, hvor han atter afsøger de eksistentielle temaer, som har været på spil i hans sangskrivning siden starten af 70'erne".

"This is not an overly confessional collection: if you're looking for self-revelation, you may have to wait for a forthcoming autobiography, but nevertheless there's much to enjoy".
