I like this one a lot, much less pop, more alternative. Always liked the fact that Charlie makes you want to move as you listen...

Bummer that Amazon doesn't carry it!!

Charlie Peacock is certainly someone that emulates no one else. His music is very unique and his lyrics seem to come out of some kind of 'crossword'.

However, I found, after listening to this album several times, that there is a good message in much of what he has written.

I only own two of his albums as this is as much as I can listen to with his unorthodox style. The other album is called "Love Life"... it is a pity Amazon.com does not stock it because it also has some pretty awesome songs on and portrays another side of Charlie Peacock.

I was amazed with the first song on this album. A blend of contemporary jazz, electro pop, and alternative mix is the best way I can describe it. This is music you won't find from any other pop artist out there. Many artists can be so easily categorized, but Peacock continues to show the breadth of his music abilities and taste in his latest album.

But as with many artists, I find his choice of lyrics decaying in this particular album. Although they may be sincere, he could have put more thought into his prose. There are also a number of songs that I find rather too unfamiliar as well. But songs like Strangelanguage, That's the Point, and Rocket hit home with thought provoking yet simple lyrics and a well fit music to accompany the message.
