I am disappoint
May. 4th, 2011 06:57 pmRight... so I've had All You Need Is Now for a week now... and I've been playing it once a day every day, pretty much... and I'm afraid I have to say it.
I'm disappointed.
The reason I've been playing it every day is not that I love it; I've been trying to find something, anything to hang my hat on. So far, the best thing I can say is I like the chorus to the title track.
I don't hate the album; on the contrary, I can't find anything to actively hate (well, apart from the keyboards in the title track--dear gods, that's annoying!). My general reaction to the CD is a big "meh."
I want to like it; hell, I want to love it. Everyone seems to be raving about it.
But I just... every song sounds the same. I honestly can't tell one from another, even after a week's steady musical diet of it. It's like having pizza every day for dinner--one day it's pepperoni, another day it's cheese, another day it's vegetarian, but in the end, it's still all pizza.
