Reviews"...Everything But The Girl continue to explore new territory...and deeper into house, jungle and trip hop...", Ranked #87 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s.", "...provide modern pop's first corollary to the weird sounds cooked up by the early '60s' most avant-garde lounge stylists: Esquivel and Martin Denny....EBTG offer an ideal conduit between today's chic underground and pop fans everywhere." - Rating: A, Ranked #15 on Spin's List of the `20 Best Albums of '96.', Recommended - "...Personally, I always found Ben and Tracey's continual love-affair-turned-sour laments a little too drippy, too sappy for my taste, but...oh, what a little laid back drum'n'bass can do!...", 9 (out of 10) - "...Though Thorn's restraint runs counter to current diva acrobatics, she's still incredibly mannered, gently nudging songs along with a personalized assortment of heys and yeahs. It's the grain of her voice...rather than her range, that is special...", Ranked #2 on Entertainment Weekly's List of the "Top 10 Albums and Singles of 1996.", "...A certain lyrical introspection on the title track...infuses deep Jungle waves and breaks with resonance and sensitivity....WALKING WOUNDED is a testimony to the strength of collaboration, the possibility of rejuvenation...", 6 (out of 10) - "...isn't quite the all-out conversion to gutsy house, drum'n'bass and trip-hop we had hoped for....the songs are...well-crafted and no doubt spectacularly meaningful, and Thorn's vocals as finely elegiac and deeply emotive as ever...", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...a hair away from being flawless....The aural jaggedness of contemporary clubland not only perfectly complements EBTG's piercing words and aching vocals but it also burns away any residual preciousness. What's left is raw, pure and absolutely gorgeous.", Ranked #12 in the Village Voice's 1996 Pazz & Jop Critics' Poll., "'The Heart Remains A Child’ is a truly beautiful bit of mid-paced pop: a rustling percussive loop paired with keening acoustic guitar and an aching lyric."
