So let's make love...
Let's make love again...
Is that a proposition?
Now let's make love.
I pledge allegiance to the flag
Of the United States of America
And to the Republic from which it stands
One nation,
Under God
Individual, which liberty and justice for all.
With liberty and justice for all
With liberty and justice for all
With liberty and justice for all
With liberty and justice for all
Which liberty and justice for all.

Passion & Warfare è un album innovativo, piacevole ed entusiasmante da ascoltare.
Un disco da avere a tutti i costi, forse il miglior lavoro di Vai, senz'altro il più originale.
Di VuFeRo-Rosso
Steve Vai è un genio, è uno di quei rari artisti che riesce a sentire la 'voce della luna' e tradurla in musica.
Questo 'Passion & Warfare' è qualcosa da avere e sistemare nello scaffale delle cose più care.
Di squalo
Un album per soli chitarristi, ma da ascoltare con giudizio critico.
Quando il cattivo gusto non ha fine.

"Steve Vai suona la chitarra nel modo più onesto che ci sia."
"QUESTO UOMO CANTA CON LA CHITARRA!"
