What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (cd)



Looks like I finally made it to this years purchases in the new stack. Not a great start. It
passes but I was disappointed. This is the groups debut album, and I think even they must have
been surprised by it's success. On the strength of the Hold On single, the album reached #6 in
the US and #3 in the UK. Not bad for a debut. Three grammy nominations followed with no wins. I
did get one other love track out of the album, but three tracks just didn't make a like.
Surprised to see that Hold On single didn't really chart that well so maybe that's not what
drove the album sales. That song barely touched the chart here. Three follow up singles didn't
even do that. The follow up album will be highly anticipated by the music press but not by me.
And what a terrible album cover.
