I bought this CD on a whim; I didn't even know who 'Crowded House' were until I bought this CD, and I bought it because it was buy two for £5.99 or something ridiculous like that in WHSmith a while ago. Anyway; all I have are good memories of this CD. I was lucky, because on one hand I may have hated the music and it could've been a waste of money, but it was good value for money and I love the album.

There are13 tracks on this album:

1. Kare Kare - this is one of my favourites, very laid back and soulful. Acoustics galore.

2. In My Command - The beginning of this trak sounds like 'Our House' hehe. This is a more upbeat song and the vocalist is very edgy.

3. Nails in My Feet - The lyrics in this are very good; and the beat is laidback again. You could listen to this whilst on the train or in a car on the motorway.

4. Black and White Boy - Very upbeat, I love this one, another of my favourites.

5. Fingers of Love - I like this track because of the beat, but it's so easily forgotten. Lyrics are great here. "And I can't look up..."

6. Pineapple Head - I love this track, it's laid back and the guitar's weird; but it's a great song.

7. Locked Out - This is a good song but not one of my favourites. Upbeat, a bit like Busted with age. LOL. But still very good.

8 - Private Universe - Another of my favourites, and again the lyrics are very good.

9. Walking on the Spot - Not one of my favourites, reminds me a bit of Norah Jones. Very easy to listen to, even if you don't like it.

10. Distant Sun - I don't remember this track; again, forgetful. But it has a good sound to it, laid back.

11. Catherine Wheels - This is a bit like the previous track. Very slow beat at first, and drags on a bit. Picks up pace but still takes a long time to finish.

12. Skin Feeling - This is actually one of the songs I don't like. But I think that's just my preference.

13. Together Alone - By far my favourite. I love the cultural rhythmic mantra stuff and this is wonderful; remidns me a bit of the Lion King.

All in all the album is very very good. It's been out for quite some time and so finding at a cheap price would probably be very easy. I was very lucky because as said at the beginning, I didn't have a clue who they were, I'd never even heard their songs on the radio. But I'm so glad I bought this because it's great to listen to when you're trying to relax. Get one even if you're not sure you'll like it! Cos there's no doubt you probably will!
