Title: Try to stop comparing
Review: Every singer/songwriter in this generation is influenced by other sounds, including (and maybe especially) by the Beatles. If it weren't for the fact that his voice is similar to his dad's, nobody would be comparing Sean's songs to John's. Ask yourself a simple question before writing a review: "do I like it, or don't I?" I heard some of this album on an NPR interview, and decided to buy it because it is exactly the kind of music I like. If I felt like comparing, rather than judging this album on it's own merits, there are other bands that I think have had a stronger influence. But the album is a good piece of work for a young artist. Mellow but interesting. I look forward to hearing Lennon's future work, provided he takes his time, lets his ideas ripen, and doesn't start trying to pop out an album every year or two. With this genre of music, I think quality is more important that quantity.
Is the review positive or negative?
