Advantages: 100% brilliance Disadvantages: No obvious disadvantages
...tune, it was the original version of the song made prior to when Destiny's Child were told to release it as the theme tune to Charlie's Angels. Very catchy and if you listen to the words of the song they are very similar to the Independant Woman that was released not so long ago.
Nasty Girl, a really easy to learn song and is a great one for listening to in the car, but is slightly too much in that category rather than being a dancing sort of tune.
Apple Pie A la Mode, a slightly meaningless song but is really good song to close a disco with. It is a nice relaxing sond and when I listen to it it calms me down. For some strange reason I tend to refer to this song as the 'FengShui' song of the album.
Happy Face, a really nice song with subtle lyrics and is a sort of slow dance music. It has what some may call an odd chorus but is one...

Advantages: Track 6 Disadvantages: Only an EP - can't play to the kids
...middle class and life in country villages.
My favourite line:
"FengShui OK
Grab the DVD
Keep it upstairs till the Bailiff's been
And I'll make herbal tea"
3. Lark Descending - a slow weary rambling song about nothing in particular - the weakest track on the EP.
"I could have like Lou Barlow, but I'm more like Ken Barlow."
4. Worried Man Blues - a happy blues song which denies the unworried man the right to sing this song. Like a less morbid version of "Song for Whoever" by the Beautiful South.
5. New York Skiffle - A genuine skiffle song but be warned the chorus is:
"Does your heroine lose its glamour on the washboard over night?
When your mother says don't do it do you cook it up in spite.
Do you rob your brother's giro?
Do you talk a load of shite?
Does your heroine lose its glamour on the washboard overnight?"
6. Vatican Broadside...

Overall my verdict is excellent album presentation, AVERAGE
tracks for me! I think he is another great emerging talent from
the U.S., but for some reason turning into a commercial artist
can make you under-perform on the big stage even though he's
already a millionaire...
