Words of Wisdom and Hope is an album produced in collaboration between Glasgow, Scotland's Teenage Fanclub and Half Japanese frontman Jad Fair.

[5][6] It was released on 4 March 2002 on Domino's subsidiary label Geographic in Europe and on Alternative Tentacles in the US.

[1][7] NME wrote that "with amiable janglers the Fanclub providing a predictibly pleasant backdrop, Jad‘s syrupy ruminations on life -think Lou Reed on prozac- take on a certain primitive charm.

"[3] The Guardian wrote that "Teenage Fanclub make an ideal backing band, providing soft bubbles of guitar in 'Love Will Conquer' and bringing a surprisingly soulful touch to 'Power of Your Tenderness' and 'You Rock.

'"[8] All lyrics are written by Jad Fair; all music is composed by Teenage FanclubAdapted from the album's liner notes.
