Review

While Charmed Life is the band's most accessible record, it doesn't even come close to the mainstream's concept of what constitutes pop music. Yet when Jad Fair sings about love and joy on Charmed Life, he is as straightforward and direct as he ever gets. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
