Where the previous Savage Garden album had its charms, this feels like
it is everything the critics said was bad about that album. It feels a
bit too calculated (I Knew I Loved You,
is a straight rip off of Truly, Madly, Deeply for instance). I know
that this is a bit to “muso” for a general review, but I feel that there
are some good ideas on this album and if they had chosen a more cutting
edge producer they might have drawn these
ideas out. Instead they have Mariah Carey’s producer. So, the album
has a nice pop sheen to it. But it could have done with a few more
rough edges.
