5.0 out of 5 stars i still love these songs, October 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: How Men Are (Audio CD)

this recording was labeled a "sellout" when it was released--some things never change. if catchy tunes imbued with that great 80's synth sound and velvety vocals are a "sellout," then so be it! i found, and still find, this to be a great collection of songs--well-crafted, full of atmosphere, drum and synth heavy tunes that stick around, begging to be played and played again. glenn gregory has an incredible voice that brings a smooth, sophisticated vibe to the party. i still enjoy every song on here! if you long for the 80's AND sophistication (yes, it is possible) then check this one out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Smart Classy Pop, October 18, 2006

This is IMHO the best of heaven 17's output ever. Somewhere in between their long career they mastered the art of smooth, cool sophisticated pop. Think Spandau Ballet's Parade or True but with a bit more of an "edge". No favourite cut because every song is sublime. Do yourself a favour - give it a try.

5.0 out of 5 stars Up there with the Best of H17, April 28, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: How Men Are (Audio CD)

This band has churned out some of the most quintessential eighties synth records of the 80s. This was their third outing and by far the most polished. It's slick and well (over?) produced and I absolutely love it. The lyrics showcase the band's great sense of humour and irony. Highlights include Sunset Now and And That's No Lie. If you love 80's pop you will love this album. Guaranteed.
