 | | The album’s title track is a stellar instrumental, and a fitting end to an excellent album - melancholy and uplifting at the same time. | | | The album kicks of with probably its best-known song, “Ol’ 55”, a catchy little number sung from the point of view of a guy leaving his girlfriend’s house at dawn. | | | The rest of the songs on the album are piano-based and most are melancholy in mood and sentiment: |

| | Adrian's Album Reviews : Tom Waits |
| | Closing time is a vastly underrated album which should appear in more 'best album' lists. | | | This is the album I tell everyone to buy,every song sounds like hes in a beautiful drunken stupor,but it totally makes the album. | | | This album is a sort of fruition of the themes and variations found in "Raindogs" and the '70's work. |

| | CLOSING TIME was the first album I ever recorded, and so it was a collection of a lot of old songs of mine. | | | Like the first album was very much a singer / songwriter album. | | | The whole album was done live with no overdubbing. |

| | Tom Waits - Closing Time - NuEra Entertainment |
| | Below is my take on each song on the album. | | | Having a few Tom Waits albums as well as the newer cd Mule Variations which I feel is his number 2 best album, Closing Time is definately his number one masterpiece. | | | The first track Ol' 55 is an earlier song which was covered by The Eagles before this album was realeased and is a perfect start for 11 more wonderful tracks. |

| | The main song off this album, just like the last album, is the first song. | | | If you vividly remember Semisonic's last album, you will remember that as the album progressed through the tracks, the songs began to sink in quality. | | | The whole album was still great, but the last song was no where near as good as "Closing Time." It seems like this latest album simply picks up where the last left off. |

| | The album is closed with the sweeping instrumental title track that once again proves the bare essentials can do the trick. | | | Something that always comes up when I’m listening to his albums is that they’re all very cohesive and sonically homogenous, even when he mixes accessible ballads and theatrical avant-blues with pots-and-pans-folk, and Closing Time is no different. | | | Closing Time is probably the friendliest Tom Waits album your money can buy. |

| | "Closing Time", the first hit from this album, is a catchy tune and is quite popular but unless you like songs that sound just like that, then you probably won't like this album. | | | If you listen to this album straight through, it's kind of just like listening to one song over and over. | | | There is nothing extremely different about this album or about each individual song that really catches your ear. |

| | JS Online: Semisonic builds on success of 'Closing Time' |
| | Unlike the 1998 album, Wilson's signature buzz-saw guitar on "Chemistry" is an accessory on most songs, rather than the glue - in the same way that three- and four-note keyboard leads adorned Wilson's guitar-driven rock of old. | | | There's no better example than "Act Naturally," the album's third track, a lilting, lover-to-lover supplication to hide from everyone else that something in the affair is horribly awry. | | | After all, the hit single begat Wilson's new piano, and the spindly, bespectacled songsmith's new ivories are the musical bricks and mortar for "All About Chemistry," Semisonic's latest batch of pop tunes. |

And when none of them became bonafide hits, I felt very stunned by it. | | | He did all the string arrangements on this album, but he won't be playing the orchestra onstage. | | | Once we had the album that was so big and got played on the radio so much, there was no turning back and saying "we still have an indie rock mentality." I think that was kind of liberating -- now we can do anything that comes to mind. |
