while my heart is easily the best track, without that song there would be no careless whisper

Always loved this album and, as stereotypically 80s sounding it is, it is the perfect send-off for a highly-influential band.

On the best track thing, all are very good but The Space Between seems to stick as a standout for me.

Maybe More Than This and Avalon as well...

Awesome album.
