Dear God, what cliched music and whining lyrics. I can't remember if this music sounded good in its day; it certainly doesn't age well.

Well said, I totally agree.

It's kinda cool to hear Roger Hodgson again. It's nothing like listening to the dusty old Breakfast in America LP on the turntable though.

I keep thinking it's finally going to end, and then, bam, another cheesy, soaring synthesizer riff.

Well, I'm not rushing out to buy the album--but neither does it pain me the way it has others.

I give it a 5 and I wait for the next song...

This sent me searching cyberspace for a Radio Paradise alternative. It pains me, but not as much as this song.

Roger Hodgson has a musical genius that has always spoke to me. So good to hear some post-Supertramp stuff. He's still got the power.

Gah. This made my teeth hurt.

I used to have a friend who listened to music like this. We're not friends anymore.
