Entertainment Weekly (5/12/00, p.78) - "...Famous for magnificent melancholia....They'll bring you down...and in the loveliest way....skirting the thin line between Gram Parsons and David Gates....prettily nervous." - Rating: B Q (7/00, p.118) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Sees them returning to their early principles with an extra helping of sonic gloss....essaying their classic chord progressions, pristine CSN&Y harmonies and timeless melodies." CMJ (6/00, p.63) - "...The pop streak that cut across its rootsy rock...has come to full fruition on SMILE, a far more optimistic affair [than the act's last release]..." Mojo (Publisher) (7/00, p.104) - "...Thoughtful, poetic, adult music....a radio-friendly version of what they do best....their deep-rooted love of melody isn't diminished by the gloss..." NME (Magazine) (5/20/00, p.44) - 6 out of 10 - "...The trace elements of British invasion pop, Big Star and the lonesome call of the bayou are still present in [their] sound, but SMILE states its intentions not to be alt-anything with each confident chord..."
