Title: It Takes a lot of Patience to sit through this
Review: Been looking forward to George's new album for years. While the fast tracks are decent and competent, I expected more from his slower tracks (which used to be his forte). George Michael in an interview once said his goal was to write songs which would "Stand the test of time" - but in this case I doubt it. Ballads are meandering, overlong and almost tuneless, compounded by the sin of trying to squeeze in sententious and pretentious lyrics into a melodic line.
Is the review positive or negative?
