It's a good record for me, nothing great but considering he only threw it together so the label would release Love Is Hell I think it'll be looked back on in 20 years time much more fondly than it is now.
I was listening to it a couple of weeks back & thought it had stood the test of time really well. I remember thinking it was totally throwaway at the time, I think I just wanted another Heartbreaker or Gold, but listening to it now there's a lot of good stuff on it. This is It, So Alive, Anybody Wanna Take Me Home are amongst his best work IMO, plus you get tracks like Do Miss America which is fantastic powerpop. I haven't listened to a single thing he's released since.
Yeah I noticed she says the 'lazy/crazy' rhyme way too many times on that album. I still dig it though, quite fun.
