How can anybody NOT like an album with lyrics like this:

"And now I can laugh at myself
instead of blaming myself
and now I'm lighthearted and free because 
nothing makes sense anymore
I was wrong"

<><><><><>

Or is it the very fact that there *are* lyrics that disturbs some 
purists?  Anybody who doesn't have this album and can get the 
version with the additional EP tracks on (Spudink is wonderful) 
should jump on it.

But then again - this is entirely down to personal taste, for which 
there is no accounting.  Yes, this is a far departure from Bytes 
(which I adore) but then who says that artists should maintain the 
same recognisable style?  If they DO, we all start grumbling about 
how predictable and boring they are...
