		That alone would have made Awake Is the New Sleep noteworthy, but what makes it stand alongside Something to Remember Me By as his strongest album is that he's written a strong, melodic set of songs and Wood has given them a colorful but unadorned production that gives each tune its own character.
		Whatever was true then, âAwake Is The New Sleepâ is the least pretentious record I have heard in some time.
		While âAwakeâ¦â has its fair share of moments that make you blush on first listen, each of the 14 songs sink in after a few spins and whatâs left is the impression of a young man finally growing into himself both musically and emotionally.

		"Sleep requirements and patterns change throughout life, but sleep problems in the elderly are not a normal part of aging," says Julie Gammack, M.D., assistant professor of geriatrics at Saint Louis University, and an author of a review published in the American Journal of Medicine.
		"Sleep disturbance in the elderly is associated with decreased memory, impaired concentration and impaired ability to function.
		She suggests patients with sleep problems keep a diary for a week or two that includes tracking usual wake-up and bedtimes, timing and size of meals, amount of exercise, medications and descriptions of how much and how restful sleep was each day.

	Ben Lee shares "divine secrets of the universe" on new album - Arts & Living
		"Awake is the New Sleep." This, the title of Ben Lee's latest album speaks volumes that cannot be exhausted into one, simple album review.
		"Awake is the New Sleep" is an album dedicated to the waking of the worlds inhabitants.
		Lee seems to be claiming that people sleep their way through life and miss all the sophisticated subtle attractions that the world has to offer.

	Triple A Radio
		While much of the album is upbeat, a few of the songs on Awake Is the New Sleep take on a noirish late-night feel, brooding in the shadows of the bright ones.
		Somewhat of a shakedown cruise for Wood's new recording environment, the timing was right for Ben Lee to stop by with a fresh batch of songs.
		The lyrical flow of Awake Is the New Sleep is a steady stream of the kind of hindsight analysis and questioning of self that comes on strong as one slowly morphs from teen to adult.

		It may not be fair to Claire Danes to blame her for her ex's suckiness, but considering that the so-called celebrity broke poor Benji's heart, I say let the finger-pointing begin.
		The songs on Awake may be hummable, but after 10 years in the industry, this Aussie balladeer should set his sights higher.

		"_____ is the new fl" is a catch phrase used to indicate the sudden popularity or versatility of an idea at the expense of the popularity of a second idea.
		She declared that "Pink is the new fl", meaning that the color pink seemed to be the foundation of the attire there, much like fl was the base color of most ensembles in New York.
		The phrase is also often generalised to "_____ is the new _____", where the standard may be almost anything ("the new rock 'n' roll" is a common variant).

	Awake is the New Sleep - Here Come the ABCs - New York Magazine Pop Music Review
		Another sturdy (yet hip) cultural touchstone is the expression “X is the new X”—as in the title of Ben Lee’s new CD, Awake Is the New Sleep.
		And yet, with both albums and their different flavors of childlike harmlessness—the self-regarding, good-natured irony of the Riot Nrrrd, the glad and big preadolescence of Ben Lee—what’s missing is the astonishment of discovery, the genuine feelings of childhood, with its emotional storms and mad energy.
		Although their once-brash newness has coalesced into a sort of arrested development, both TMBG and Ben Lee are skilled crafters of witty, self-aware pop.

	Welcome to Hopenet!
		Awake follows a comparable blueprint of 2002’s Hey You Yes You: uncomplicated, unassuming, no-gloss pop songs.
		Ben Lee, who in interviews has said that he prefers an open spirituality to organized religion, released Awake is the new sleep, filled with quirky lyrics, spoken and sung words, and loads of questions about love, life and death.
		The lyrics and vernacular provide a conversational tone, in Lee’s sing-songish delivery, that is both simple in delivery and layered in meaning.

	Popjournalism.ca - Review - Ben Lee, Awake is the New Sleep
		On his fifth full-length, Awake is the New Sleep, Lee keeps to what he does best and that's writing quirky, acoustic pop music with a little bit of keyboards and a whole lot of yearning.
		Awake is Lee's post-break-up record (he got dumped by famed actress Clare Danes) and tracks like "Begin" and the title track all centre around the idea that there's more to life than chasing some girl.
		It also helps that Awake is oozing with upbeat melodies and warm sing a-long poetry made perfect for pop radio.

		Ben Lee - "Awake Is The New Sleep" (New West Records)
		Awake Is The New Sleep is a sweet, sweet album, with tender melodies, and inviting catchy songs like “Catch My Disease,” “Gamble Everything For Love,” and “Ache For You.” The songs on Awake very easily wrap around you like a comforting, warm blanket.
		For historians, the record brings to mind the first two Jackson Browne albums; acoustic, organic musings on love and life.

	Splendid Magazine reviews Ben Lee: Awake is the New Sleep
		Awake is a distinctly flawed album; much of what's here is precious or forced-sounding.
		Not that Awake is wholly unappealing: "Ache For You", for instance, is an understated pop gem with a sweetly effective chorus.
		From the abortive hooks that are left, orphaned, at various points on Awake, it's easy to see that Lee still has an ear for a melody.

	Underwurld Review
		Whether he realises it or not, Lee has created a concept album about love and loss, sadness and bliss where he is subjected to his own personal mixed-up Divine Comedy, journeying from heaven into hell and beyond.
		And unlike most songwriters of his generation, 'Awake Is The New Sleep' is unique and varied with equal quantities of personal recollection and ideas.
		Musically 'Awake Is The New Sleep' is standard fare, with more than enough quality moments and some of the best writing on a solo effort this year.
