• If you discount his musical theater endeavor THE CAPEMAN, as many are quick to do, YOURE THE ONE ended a 10-year silence in the recording career of Paul Simon. The wait was not in vain; this album unites GRACELANDs effervescence (guitar and bass chores are handled by Simons South African accomplices from that era), RHYTHM OF THE SAINTS free-floating poetry and languid cool, and the mix of humor and introspection that made HEARTS & BONES Simons most underrated album.
• "Darling Lorraine" is a devastatingly poignant portrait of a turbulent relationship, where language and melody are somehow simultaneously liquid and cutting. "Old" finds the pushing-60 Simon casting a humorous eye on humanitys relative age in the universe, over backing that mates South African fluidity with the 50s rock & roll of Simons youth. Throughout the album, Simon continually manages to wring new emotional truths out of words and music without ever sounding labored; the mark not only of a seasoned vet, but also of a true artist in full flower.

Professional Reviews: Rolling Stone (1/4/01, p.116) - Included in Rolling Stones "Top 50 Albums of 2000".

Rolling Stone (10/26/00, p.111) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...The melodies are lucid, simple in the best sense of the term. The albums overall impression is of quietness and introspection....providing the map of the shifting geographies of our emotional lives..."

Entertainment Weekly (10/6/00, p.85) - "...No one weds conversational and cosmological - or acoustic pop and ethnological studies - quite so gracefully..." - Rating: A-

Q (1/01, p.94) - Included in Qs "50 Best Albums of 2000".

Q (11/00, p.109) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...This is an album of the finest, most beguiling cut. Rhythms skip and play seemingly without touching earth....These are manifestly the labors of a man still with something to say. And...saying it beautifully."

CMJ (10/23/00, p.31) - "...His best solo effort since 1986s GRACELAND, following a pure pop ethos that is refreshingly, and sometimes, painfully honest..."

Mojo (Publisher) (10/00, p.114) - "...[He] still has it. He writes, plays, sings with unmatched elegance, intelligence, a decent heart and mostly sounds like the teenaged kid everyone middle-aged knows they have inside them still."
