There could hardly be a more Momus wannabe title imaginable.

| It is over. It wasn't the clueless car-crash cash-in that I feared it'd be but it did often suffer from uninspired tunes, lifeless arrangements and weak vocals. Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.  _________________ |

| Well, that was all rather mediocre, if a level below. They/he really does only have one highlight - and a couple of okayish other choons. One can kind of see why they/he was a one hit wonder. The flat voice worked in that song, but not in most of the others!
