Good album!

I forgot I had this and so never played it. It's on now, and quite good, but it will need a couple of plays before I decide whether I like it.

No, definitely not; to me, its awful, its got no life in it - a bit like Adele's music. There is nothing uplifting or good about it; when you listen to the other albums, they're just in a different league - a variety of styles, tempos, feel etc. In simple direct terms, ITS BORING!!!!!!

I'm Christopher.
Decided to start working through a few of my absolute favourite albums today; used to sit down with the Mrs at Yule break and go through out top album lists but we haven't done it for a couple of years so I'm gonna pick it up once more.
Had this on Spotify to and from work...
Now listening to this also on Spotify whilst catching up on some admin which is one of the joys of self-employment... not that I'd want to go back to being an employee.
