I will reserve total judgement until I hear the whole album, but if this is the single going to US radio it will be DOA. One would assume they'd lead off with the best material which does not bode well. If anyone can fix up an mp3 I'm willing to give it another few tries to see if it improves with repetition but on my current crap connection one quick listen is all I got for now. | |
