    Like his piano chops, his lyrics are no-frills expressions, ripe and ready to be groomed into something even bigger.

    Goon isn’t great, at least in terms of its ambitions, but it is a fine example of what might evolve from pure pop purpose.

    There's not much one can do to deny the emotional weight or the eerily '70s character of Goon; it's probably best to settle into the La-Z-Boy, flick feathered hair off of your polyester lapel, grab a box of tissues, and let it be.
