    I honestly did not find this album to be "boring" like many have claimed. I personally thought it was very nice. One of my personal favourites of the year.

    Chances are that if you weren't too hot on Lou's shift from electro to acoustic over the course of her three-LP solo trajectory, your best bet would be stick to your faithful copy of "Fear Of Fours" and remember the good times.

    The lyrics mingle optimism and deliberate naivety, with even the downer moments coming across as exultantly miserable rather than genuinely forlorn. Rhodes is undoubtedly sincere, but maybe at the expense of potential humour and irony.

    One Good Thing is a fine album, and individually the tracks are pleasingly reflective, but the instant familiarity and maudlin cosiness is more soporific than it is arresting.
