I bought this off the back of the single "Always the last to know". However very soon it was clear that there are so many excellent tracks on this album and the lyrics are brilliant. Curries voice must be one of the most under rated in the business.

One of my favourite albums. The songs are great but the lyrics are fantastic - a real heartbreaker and just what is required when love has let you you down.
Most people will recognise the sentiments behind songs like "Be My Downfall" and "To Last a Lifetime". The up tempo "Just Like A Man" also covers its subject in a comprehensive fashion.
Jealousy, unrequited love, betrayal - all present and correct. The fact remains that if this album had been made by someone more critically lauded (or a male singer such as David Gray or similar) it would be hailed as a classic and sell millions.
Get it and wallow.
