I think "not too critical" is being overly polite, Theo. :-)  But, I
thought at least the review would give at least a vague impression of
what the different tracks on the new album are like, so thought I'd pass
it along.  I have to admit that reading the descriptions of "Like to be
Bad" and "Showtime" do not inspire confidence from the lyrical side of
things... :-(

Cheers,

Paul.
