Critical reception

[edit]

According to Kieran McCarthy, writing for AllMusic, "Stretching through the uppermost limits of a majestic falsetto, dancing from pitch to pitch with unimaginable ease, this man's voice is truly something to behold."[1] Ken Hunt, in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, wrote that "lyrics dwell on love in its manifold manifestations, often presented in allegory just as Azerbaijani cuisine wraps ingredients in vine leaves."[2]
