It's like a Robyn Hitchcock song but without the lyrical whimsy/silliness.

The songs may have got better in the last 15 minutes, or I may have been finally worn down by the general niceness of the album, but I'm enjoying it more.

Oh, yes, and the booze...

Actually, it's basically just "Our Prayer" off of 20/20 (or is it Friends?).

It is over.

It was basically a Crowded House album with weaker vocals and less interesting musicians.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited
