Nov 12, 2015'This is a Song and These Are the Words'
What's wrong with a little tongue-in-cheek humour? The brilliance of 'Alias' motivated me to revisit this album having dismissed it way too quickly first time around. It really is rather good. -

JimMJun 13, 2007Trite and sadly lame. What was Romeo thinking when he thought the lyrics, "This is a song/and these are the words"X10 would help them sell records?

It's still heavy on the harmonies and hummable choruses, of course, and does meander into happy-clappy, round-the-campfire territory too often for those of us with a low saccharine threshold.

Lopping off about twenty minutes would have improved things no end, but mostly it needs focus - focus that would probably have come with time.

There are too many tracks on here that seem unfinished in a way, content to noodle around for far too long without making too much of an impression.
