I think I've only ever heard Come on Eileen. Good use of brass in songs, speed it up and you have Ska I guess. Vocals are the weakest part. I don't hate it overall, but it won't be in my regular rotation. It sounds like the late 70s/early 80s, and would be an excellent anchor for a time period in tv/film. It feels like it needs an emotion behind it, or it's not clear enough, Love pt1 is close but otherwise I don't "get" the album.
