### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ All In All Good Sounds From Our Neighbors To The North
*by T***R on October 20, 2015*

I first came to know this group through the song, "By the Glow of the Kerosene Light". They bring a breath of fresh air to the traditional songs, add in a few of their own, including the afore mentioned song, throw in a cover of Queen's "You're My Best Friend" and it makes for a great, if somewhat, eclectic album. All in all good sounds from north of the border. Recommend!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This Is What Music Is All About
*by D***M on January 28, 2019*

I'm just so delighted for my good fortune to stumble on to this wonderful trio! Take a listen, you may also find yourself wanting more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4.5 stars) The Once do it twice with a splendid follow-up album
*by S***O on November 12, 2011*

Sometimes, the second album from a new artist or band can prove to be a disappointment when compared to their debut release. But not so in this case - no dreaded 'sophomore slump' here. Once again, The Once have produced an album of (mainly) neo-traditional folk sounds featuring the agile vocals of lead singer Geraldine Hollett, smooth and tight harmonies from the 3 band members, meticulous playing from Phil Churchill and Andrew Dale, engaging modern arrangements, and an astute balance of traditional and contemporary songs with a variety of tempos.The album is, to a large extent, more of the same (but I'm not complaining). There are some slight differences : the inclusion of a couple of pop-rock songs - a banjo driven version of Queen's 'Your My Best Friend' (which the band make their own), and the up-tempo 'A Round Again' (written by the band) - if this doesn't get your toe tapping, nothing will; and this time, there are no songs sung a cappella (a slight disappointment). The band's debut album featured a few songs by Newfoundland artists, and The Once continue to acknowledge their roots by including 5 songs on this album by Newfoundland writers; and also, by the inclusion of the beautiful and moving 'Valley of Kilbride' - a song which pays tribute to the Newfoundlanders who laid down their lives at the Battle of the Somme in 1916.Some comments about some more of my favourite songs :CRADLE HILL (The Once, Al Pittman) - I think this is a poem set to music (not too sure). Anyway, it's a gorgeous mid-tempo song with a slight hymnal quality - it's about the enduring experiences associated with love ('these constant joys of love'). Features delicately plucked bouzouki (mandolin?) and acoustic guitar as accompaniment, little or no percussion; and, of course, top rate vocals and harmonies.MY HUSBAND'S GOT NO COURAGE (IN HIM) (trad. arr. The Once) - An 18th century British (not sure if it's Scottish or English) folk song. It's a tale of post-nuptial woe from a young wife whose husband can no longer rise to the occasion, so she is looking around for a replacement. A fairly rousing song with feisty vocals from Geraldine, and a delivery/arrangement that, in my book, qualifies it as folk-rock.BY THE GLOW OF THE KEROSENE LIGHT (Wince Coles) - A melancholic song about a grandfather who reminisces to his grandchild about his love for his own parents and his wife who died in childbirth - simple but touching lyrics. I haven't heard the original, but the band really nail this song with Geraldine's poignant delivery, understated instrumental accompaniment (accordion and piano), and low-key sepia-tinged harmonies.ODE TO A BROKEN HEART (The Once, Emile Benoit) - Lovely slow tempo song (a waltz) with a distinct Gaelic flavour - your heart may have been broken, but the wound will heal as you find another. Just Geraldine singing - no harmonies on this one. Instrumental accompaniment is from fiddle and (what sounds like) Irish bouzouki. The only thing wrong with this song, is that it's too short (c.3 minutes).As with their debut album, I like every single song. The Once have recently toured the UK and they have become very popular over here; I hope they come back, because I'd like to see them in concert - I believe they have an amazing stage presence.
