    "the best songwriter of our century!" huh tamara? whenever you here that about anything be it a book, a film or an album. you can guarantee its a piece of over rated trash! I think I'll try and judge the best songwriter of the century some time around 2099 rather than 2005.

    His tunes and/or jokes plop out like forced turds. [Mar 2005, p.92]
  2. It is one thing to not take yourself to seriously but it is quite another to go to the other extreme. For all his knowing winks, Green walks the fine line between decadency and distaste.
  3. New Musical Express (NME)

    'Gemstones' sees Adam go much deeper into cabaret territory. [22 Jan 2005, p.51]
