4.0 out of 5 stars Too bad it's discontinued!, June 23, 2000

By	Kristin Ann Doyle (Florida) - See all my reviews

This (in my opinion) is one of The Outfield's best. The CD starts off great with the sports anthem "Winning It All" followed by "Closer To Me" which is a great rock song! "The Way It Should Be" is a nice ballad but (honestlty) not great. I find "Under A Stone" a very good story song. "Young Love" is very catchy and the title says it all! Great for thinking about when you were young and in love! "Jane" is not really my kind of song, but some people may like it. "Take Me Home" I really enjoyed. I found it to be a really cool song! "Tonight You're Mine" is one of my favorite ballads The Outfield has ever done. It's a really meaningful song. "On The Line" is another song that isn't for me, but some people may like it. "Stranger In My Own Town" I like alot. The Lyrics make you think about where society has gone and the music is really good. "Going Back" is an ok, every now and then kind of song. Over all though, this album is a must. There's alot of things I like about this CD. 6 out of 11 songs are very good. Check this CD out. It really is too bad it's discontinued.

5.0 out of 5 stars Last, but Not Least, March 16, 1999

By A Customer

This is the last studio release by The Outfield before Big Innings (their greatest hits compilation) was released. To listen to it, you would think the band was just warming up, not calling it quits (for a while, anyway, as it turns out). "Winning It All" is a great sports anthem that was featured when the 1992 Olympic "Dream Team" won the gold medal in Barcelona. "Closer to Me" is another great piece of work off of this album. As I've stated on other Outfield album reviews I've done, to judge these albums solely by the songs you know is to do yourself a great injustice. "The Way it Should Be" is a cool, melodic piece about a perfect world between two people. "Young Love" seems to capture the electricity of the topic it addresses, and "Tonight You're Mine" is a beautiful song about unharbored feelings toward someone. Again, to sound like a skipping record, this is a great album from start to finish.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Stuff, February 7, 2000

By	Richard "Skippyhead" (Florida!) - See all my reviews

A step forward from "Diamond Days" with some great songs "Closer To Me" "The Way It Should Be" and "Tonight Your Mine". Has a few clunkers here and there and although they have a real drummer it's still machine sounding (Which I just accept as their "sound" because the new tracks on "Extra Innings" sound the same.) No real complaints, just a few observations. This was a mystery album for me. I never saw it when it was originally released and by the time I got online it was out of print.
