4.0 out of 5 stars Solid album, recommended, 22 Aug 2001
This is Paul Young's second album, released in 1985 (his first was No Parlez).

It is a solid effort and includes some good songs, among them the hit singles Everytime you go away and Everything must change. I'm gonna tear your playhouse down was also released as a single, but was not very successfull (and is not as good as the other two songs).

Besides the songs released as singles, the album contains nine other titles, Tomb of Memories being my favorite. I still enjoy the album after 16 years (today as a CD instead of Vinyl:-).

Total Length of the album: 55:43

5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive effort, 24 April 2006
By Luc Huygh (Arlon, Belgium) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
An impressive effort where the combination of an excellent production, Young's very powerful voice, the vocal arrangements of his backing dames (called, 'The Royal Tarts' would you believe - they left after this), fine musicians and a perfect choice of songs, all made for a milestone album.
Unfortunately, it was just downhill from here. Get the album with the extended remixes; they're extremely good. And it's worthwhile hearing how Young sings Tom Waits' 'A Soldier's Things' and his own 'Man in the Iron Mask'.

Shame he had to go and sing rubbish like 'Senza una donna'... If only he had stuck to this kind of music. Where is the guy today, anyway?

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as bad as his debut., 5 Dec 2008
By FAMOUS NAME (UNITED KINGDOM) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      

Well, this was at least better than his debut album 'No Parlez' (see my Review for that one) but still couldn't do with all these 'Extended Mixes' - though I might add, these were far better than the ones that featured on his debut.

The album could have done without a couple of tracks for me - 'Hot Fun' for one which dragged on for a tedious eight minutes or so and simply meant nothing to me... However, there are some good tracks in-between all these extra mixes on this; including two outstanding songs: 'Soldier's Things' and 'Man In The Iron Mask' - the latter unfortunately that did not appear on the original vinyl, but was a Bonus Track on both cassette and CD, and so this was a real shame, since the LP much needed this song to boost an otherwise pretty boring album...

Better than his previous work is about the best I can say...
