it's very musicy

insistent on an unclear point

Written in 20 days after convalescing. "Empty Paris" is amazing.

Makes you smile, which is enough

off-key off-beat but meant

beat and sample forward and up, voice back and down. balances out ok

great concept, nice n dumb

strongest melodies since Tunng

sad but not depressed, still but not relaxed, longing but not horny.

pretty cool! Was it spending time with Herbie and Tyler?

amazing production but he misses that Newman was actually angry and Springsteen was actually depressed and Joel was actually status anxious

as long as one young man is deeply uneasy and externalises this somehow, k-punk is alive

graceful and light but lightweight

generous with key and arrangement changes but otherwise thin

exceptional in that it's not schmaltzy

more interesting than it sounds

funny, the things that change your life.

barely there

I appreciate Hal Willner; I recognise in him a fellow demented listomaniac. Some of these are suitably off-kilter and unhinged

Pop with occasional screams
