Yes, I liked them, and I still like them. Not all, just a couple... there’s music for every taste and every mood; Cremonini certainly doesn’t write to make you think, but sometimes I enjoy hearing: But how nice it is to go around... or, What do I expect from tomorrow? The sun in my face... In my opinion, a catchy tune has the same value as any other type of music, and those who think it's easy to write a good catchy tune are mistaken. Otherwise, we could throw out almost all the music from the fabulous sixties, the Brill Building Sound, Leiber Stoller, Holland-Dozier-Holland, the Beach Boys. Thank goodness there is everything, because we need it all.

Isis, I believe they both use drugs; it's exactly the phrase you quote that leads me to think this. Before that line, one might think it’s only him. In any case, in my opinion, poetry should be read like listening to a song, words like notes; if it moves you, it has achieved its purpose... understanding the text is secondary to the suggestion of the art of speaking.

Before forming an opinion, I downloaded a few songs. If only some of them are on the level of Touch Me I'm Sick, then they're great. I particularly like DeBaser because it often introduces you to awesome bands you've never even heard of.

Mogol Battisti were great. But driving like a madman with my headlights off at night to see if it’s that difficult to die... has always made me think it was a cloying text. I’ve read it again, and my judgment has improved. It moves me so much more: after school, the kids sold books while I stood by watching, searching for the courage to imitate them, then defeated, I went back to playing with my mind and its gnawings, and in the evening on the phone, you asked me why I wasn’t talking. What year is it, what day is it, this is the time to live with you, my hands as you see, no longer tremble, and I have in my soul deep down in my soul vast skies and immense love, and then more, still love, love for you, blue rivers and hills and meadows where my sweetest melancholies run, the universe finds space inside me, but the courage to live, that, still isn’t there... As always, it’s a matter of taste.

I bought this album because I liked a couple of songs by Lunapop, what a mistake!! Money wasted.

Review with an effect, but I can't stomach the Liars.

I have an Offspring album (I can't remember which one), listened to once and set aside.

Everything you wrote about the album is true. You didn't mention Harry's House, which I consider to be the best track.

It's not for me.

He’s good, but as you yourself say: Seger's albums are all a bit similar, lacking surprises and never straying from the canon set by the author himself... Also add that the choice is winning, but in my opinion, in his case it’s a limitation. Other artists follow their own path, but there’s more variation among the songs.
