It almost sounds like they're doing something off of this album.

It is over.
It did all the things you expect Elton John to do but did them less engagingly than you expect him to do.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

Well, considering how highly regarded it is, that was a disappointment.
Some good bits here and there, but probably only a couple of consistently strong songs.
The album had a solid, nicely produced sound throughout, but ultimately it was a bit meh.
Again, it's worth reiterating that he was only about 22 when he wrote and recorded the album, but still...
