"One of the most underrated albums ever created for me. Even though they dont invent or bring anything completely new to music. This is an astonishing piece of work, every song stands for itself, yet they work as a whole in the album." Reply

"Very weak ELO-album, but I bought the CD in 86, the re-release in the 00s and in 2014 the LP second hand! I'm paranoid ? Heaven only knows!" Reply

"This album shredded my heart into a million pieces, taped it back together, gave it confidence, and then peed on it. Absolutely incredible roller-coaster of emotion. Instrumentation is superb as well. A couple tracks I could've lived without. But still a crushing blow to the pop-punk scene's emot..." [+] Reply
