4.0 out of 5 stars A REVIEW ON PARADE., September 13, 2002

By 

Michael 80 (San Francisco,USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Parade (Audio CD)

THIS ALBUM IN MY OPINION WAS PROBABLY SPANDAU'S BEST RELEASE.
ALTHOUGH NOT AS POLISHED AS TRUE, IT NEVERTHELESS CONTAINS SOME OF THEIR BEST WORK. FROM THE GORGEOUS OPENER "ONLY WHEN YOU LEAVE" TO THE MELLOW "ROUND AND ROUND", EACH SONG STANDS OUT ON IT'S OWN. "HIGHLY STRUNG" IS AS CATCHY AS EVER,WHILE THE DREAMY "I'LL FLY FOR YOU" IS THEIR BEST SONG EVER.(GARY KEMP PLEASE TAKE NOTE!) "WITH THE PRIDE" ANOTHER GEM, WAS WORTHY OF A SINGLE RELEASE. IF YOU LIKE SPANDAU BALLET THEN THIS ALBUM IS AN ABSOLUTE "MUST HAVE". I HOPE THIS REVIEW WAS HELPFUL.

After the success of the True album, the Ballet were always gonna struggle to top it, but they almost did. With strong songs such as Round & Round, I'll Fly For You and Highly Strung this is as enjoyable to trip through as True. It mirrors True in many ways...the lush ballads and the up beat rhythms of the support tracks.

True was their peak, Parade sustained the joy but it was mostly down hill after Parade.
