Produktbeschreibungen
Kritiker hatten es schon immer auf Jimmy Buffett abgesehen -- spätestens seitdem der Sänger gegen deren Seitenhiebe immun wurde, und seine Fans in Massen in die Konzerte strömten, sich um seine Platten und Bücher rissen und in seinen Nightclubs in Key West und New Orleans dinierten. Aber jetzt müssen Sie selbst entscheiden oder, um es mit seinen Worten aus "Volcano" zu sagen: "Either you lava him now, or you lava him not" (entweder man liebt ihn jetzt, oder man liebt ihn überhaupt nicht). Songs You Know by Heart ist eine nette kleine Best-of-Kollektion, die die niemals alternden Konzertklassiker wie "Margaritaville", "Fins", "Cheeseburger in Paradise" enthält, sowie das unveränderliche "Why Don't We Get Drunk". Falls Sie noch nie mit Jimmy Buffetts Musik in Berührung gekommen sind, ist diese Scheibe der beste Weg, dies nachzuholen. --Daniel Durchholz

Review by Mike DeGagne
Combining aloof humor with a laid-back, devil-may-care island attitude, Jimmy Buffett sang songs about alcohol consumption, lazing around in the sun, and the freedom of not having to work for a living. Songs You Know By Heart is a solid offering of Buffett's greatest hits, pulling together his truly strongest material and avoiding the unnecessary filler that appears on his albums. His claim to fame, "Margaritaville," is the jewel in the crown here, which still harbors that tropical feel thanks to its Caribbean-styled rhythm and relaxed flow. "Come Monday" picks up where "Margaritaville" leaves off, only this ballad plays out with subdued sincerity and has Buffett sounding strangely serious, and romantic. Most of the songs from Buffett are centered around his frolicking lifestyle, like the comical "Cheeseburger in Paradise" or the naughtiness of "Why Don't We Get Drunk," an ode to his party-filled outlook on life. Buffett's voice shines on the clever "Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes," which again spotlights his love of living without concern, especially in someplace warm. The catchy and whimsical "Fins" is lifted by a contagious pace with a smart chorus and serves as one of the highlights of this collection. As a compilation, this bunch of Jimmy Buffett's most famous tunes contains just the right amount of tracks. Any less would be inconsistent and any more would be deemed as overkill.
