So

"Den er absolut et køb værd. Dels er der hørbart flere detaljer i de øvre lag på klassikeren, som satte nye lydstandarder og gjorde Gabriel til stadion-stjerne - og stadig holder vand. Men allervigtigst for Gabriel-fans er den aldeles fremragende koncert fra Athen som sluttede på So-turen".

"The strengths of the album: Gabriel's increased melodicism and ability to blend African music, jangly pop, and soul into his moody art rock. Apart from these singles, plus the urgent "That Voice Again," the rest of the record is as quiet as the album tracks of Security. The difference is, the singles on that record were part of the overall fabric; here, the singles are the fabric, which can make the album seem top-heavy (a fault of many blockbuster albums, particularly those of the mid-'80s). Even so, those songs are so strong, finding Gabriel in a newfound confidence and accessibility, that it's hard not to be won over by them, even if So doesn't develop the unity of its two predecessors".
