Negative Positive
Title: Technically proficient but (bad) music
Review: This borders on elevator music. While I respect the playing and singing abilities of Simply Red, none of the songs on this CD have the same strong feel as their famous "If You Don't Know Me By Now", which I have just learned is a cover..."The Long and Winding Road" by the Beatles is a good example of a song that has a softer touch, but still evokes great emotion.Regarding the lyrics, they're nothing special and nothing that hasn't been said before is on this CD.Given their skills, Simply Red should just take the greatest songs of decades ago and cover them.
Is the review positive or negative?
