"simply raw emotion set to soulful music... you can drop this CD when you need a lift, when you want to share some heartache, or just when you want to be crooned to by a beautiful young man. this is a must-have in any collection."
All for show is not showy at all

"Having the pleasure of seeing Eric 3x this year alone has made life great!!! I have met him, chilled with him and had the pleasure to enjoy him music. I have never found an artist that is so amazing and fresh and yet so hienestly confessional.1. One Night Stands - a song about not being into one night stands very moving and sweet!!
2. All For Show - This si such a fun makes you bop around and enjoy the guitar fun.
3. My Decision - this is Eric rocking out on electric guitar about date Rape this song is very powerful. my partner was totally affected by this song.
4. Luxury's Definition - Another upbeat toetapping fun song.
5. The Outskirts of You- ever had that person who just refused to fall well play this song and you will remember that feeling.
6. Kindahard - This song is all about dreams and making them come true. this song inspired me to pick up the guitar and start playing myself.
7. Everytime - one of the most beautiful songs i have ever heard and eric on piano is brilliant.
8. A Good Good Cry - Just a song about being there for a freind. Very nice.
9. So - great love song about love and its downfalls.
10. On The Drive - the only song i cant seem to get into but one outta 11 isnt bad.
11. It's Only Fair - I love this song it is a great ending to the album :) a great farewell :) I think anyone who gets this cd and doenst open themselves to something new and great will be disappointed otherwise you will love it :)"
AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!!!

"Had the opportunity to see Eric in a small acoustic setting. Not only is he charming and sexy, that voice is amazing as it flows from this small guy. The cd flows nicely as it crosses genres. The highlight on the cd for me is "Everytime". This could be HUGE on radio....it's so beautiful. This is a FANTASTIC cd that has a number of excellent songs. I highly recommend this CD. You WON'T be disappointed."
It doesn't get any better then this, or more real.

"It doesn't get any better then this, or more real. Eric Himan is a breath of fresh air. I believe this is his third album but there is no "freshman slump" here, just honest songs that radiate warmth and compassion. Eric writes with a power and wisdom that seem far beyond his "twenty something" age. "One Night Stands" is in your face commentary on promiscuity and all its heartbreak. "My Decision" is a first person account of date rape that is so chilling that I hope it is "just a song" and not the recollection of a real experience. "The Outskirts of You", "Everytime", and "On The Drive" are compelling and sublime songs that speak to a multitude of human emotions. As for "Luxury's Definition", well that is listening to Eric sing. I don't know if the world is ready for his kind of brutal honesty, but I know I am."
