I went into Hmv today, got it for £14.99!!

The cover is good, the reverse booklet sleave is a clever touch

I would definatly recommend anyone this as the beauty of this cd/s is that it covers different tastes

and I really found it sad that many had bad words for the songs.

The one thing I know is that making songs is quite possibily a great and difficult task, as one minute you can have a creative mind, then your mind wonders into something else
Mike has made many incredible songs and for each new cd, we see that Mike has evolved, and still is and we're there for the ride, like for a next cd, we'll follow is path to the world of creativness that he makes.

Good example of evolving in my opinion , Mike's Blackbird song reminds me of a a grown up "Cuckoo" song as I always for some reason found that to be a song about a baby bird.. perhaps I'm alittle wrong but it can be funny how people see music (I'm not smoking anything strong lol)

I really like light and shade, both for the songs and amazing talent that I'm able to hear in my lifetime
(no mike didn't pay me to say this hehe)

Keep up the good work Mike, I believe strong in your music!
And dont take the bad comments to heart.. its always hard to please people

i think its comming one good thing out of this. people think they are getting a bad album but then its better, because you waited for a bad album. Its always like that. If you exept a very good album you will be neagtive. If you think the worst you never get dissapointed!

:laugh:

When playing for the first time i thought..."oh heck!... This is a different Mike".

However, I'm delighted to hear that although a new sound for Mike there's a heck of alot of the the Mike of Old in this (meaning the structures of the songs - Not the sound).

I was very disapointed with Tres Lunas and was expecting something along the same lines with this but not at all.. There's much more complexity and subtleness in this album.
