Saracene said:I enjoyed the first four, but I took Reveal to the second-hand CD store during one of my collection purges. I found it really frustrating because many songs would start promisingly and then just wouldn't go anywhere.
Good idea.
To me the faster/harder songs were ruined with strings & other embellishments, and the slower songs had too many bleeps and bloops.
Imitation of Life is a great single, but I don't get the love for crap like All the Way to Reno. "You know you are/you're gonna be a star". Are you fucking kidding me? Has he been taking writing lessons from Bono?
I think Stipe's lyrics were better when they weren't printed in the insert, though I do think that's a coincidence.
