Ed you touch the deepest part of my soul with some of your lyrics and the music, everything is just put so well together that it makes so unbelievable. Ed's writting is not preaching at all it is about something real, about life to my liking i find itso much better then all of these boring love songs. All i can say is that before Live their was a big void!! I just can't wait to see them Live once again this summer. You guys rock my world keep it up. Lots of love. How to YOU guys do it work and tour non stop? Is this review helpful to you?     Yes      No LIVE is just what we've needed!!! | Reviewer: KAT | 2/28/2006 A lot of people (read: critics) slam the band for the lyrics, saying if they wanted preaching, they'd go to church. But EddieK is not preaching. He is sharing the most intimate moments of his life: the moments when the Spirit touched him and made him whole; and I find that inspiring. As a long-term Live fan, I find THEM life-altering; and in fact, the fourth album, 'Distance to Here', quite literally saved my life. Many I've spoken to feel the same way; for though Live as a band name is hard to 'google', the FriendsofLive are out there and being uplifted daily by the work the band, and EddieK with his lyrics in particular, do. They make the world better just by being in it...and by being willing to SHARE! If communication and understanding can save the world, then Live are right on the avant guarde, with U2, the Indigo Girls, and a few others. So all I can say for those critical minds who find Live's lyrics 'pretentious and sentimental' and 'drippy softcore preachery'...for them I can feel only pity, for as far as I am concerned, the message of Love is one for everyone, if we can but let it in. If the lyrics don't speak to these people, fine; but they do speak to some of us; so deeply that they bring tears to our eyes. So to tell everyone they meet not to bother listening and making their own decision/connection (or not) with the music, to me, is a sin. We are all different...and Love is Love. Thank you EddieK and Live, for lifting me up. Is this review helpful to you?     Yes      No Add New Review About The Artist
