That feeling when 38 minutes feels like 3 hours. Yyyyyyyaaaaawwwwwnnnnnnzzzzzzzz

Their lyrics' don't call to me at all. Just sounds flat to me. Lots of albums so they must of had a cult following.

Repetitive, boring, bad singer. No idea why this was on the list.

Severely dated. I fail to detect any distinguishing features in this album.

Not my music

I'm trying to give this album a chance, but its just not good. Theres very little to suggest it to anyone - Lyrics are uninspired and melodies are derivative and boring. This is pretty bad. 1/5

1/5. Quite a boring album with nothing new to offer within the pop world. Maybe I’m not a love song enjoyer but it was pretty bad.

Bit whiney

Ye um uh naw

C’est beige pas pire. Rien de bien inspirant ou de révolutionnaire. Ils portent bien leur nom, ni trop l’fun, ni trop plate; ni trop agressif, ni trop relax. Bref, c’est très moyen et je n’ai rien de bien positif à dire, sinon que c’est de la pop correcte.

Je ne suis pas sûr de comprendre la présence de cet album dans cette liste. C'est parce qu'ils ont eu du succès en copiant U2 avec la pièce Quiet Heart? C'est pour mettre un groupe Australien dans la liste? Ont-ils influencé quelqu'un? Ce n'est pas apparent à la première écoute. Il y a la pièce Was There Anything I Could Do? qui se démarque du lot et You Can't Say No Forever que je ne skiperais pas dans une liste de lecture, mais le reste est pas mal beige. Les textes ont beau être émouvants selon ce qu'on en dit, si les chansons ne sont pas bien emballées, c'est ennuyant. On peut bien le comparer à Rumor de Fleetwood Mac, mais la musique est intéressante sur l'album de Fleetwood Mac. À l'écoute de cet album, on a envie de passer au suivant rapidement.

This just did not wow me. In any sense of the word. Maybe I wasn’t in the mood? Maybe it did suck? Not sure. Might revisit, but I doubt it. Too many other things to focus on.

The vocals in several of the songs were just atrocious (especially Love is a Sign). Even the songs that weren't grating to the ears were mediocre at best.

Completely and totally unremarkable and forgettable. Office pop.

Very boring, didnt make it all the way through

Absolutely no emotions while listening to it.

Not liking this so far. Dont really like the sound, dont like the lyrics (dislike them aesthetically and the overall message), dont like the dudes voice. Its like U2 but even worse. sorry if they precede them im sure theres good reason theyre in the list but i cant get into this it sounds generic, maybe it wasnt at the time of release but i actively dont care about this. was very annoyed while listening and it was difficult to get through.

Overproduced garbage that sounds vaguely like the smiths or television at times. Boring as hell

Dull and bland

Worst one yet

What if Crowded House wasn't good?

Eh. I’m bored.
