"Impressive for what they were at the time, and a big step up from their debut album, in my opinion. Side note, the vocal work on this album is the pure definition of talent."  Reply

"Easy to bash because the movie was a coke-inducted disco nightmare (though its fun for its camp value) but the soundtrack is another story. Both ELO and Olivia were in their prime when this album was made and I personally love both halves of the album."  Reply

"My personal AOTY. I also think that this has been the best year for Damon ALbarn. I feel like everything that he did with all of his projects this decade were buildups to The Now Now and this album.
