And now for something exactly the same. Well, not quite. This is the title track from my favourite band, Ten's, ninth album. When I heard it first I wasn't as impressed as I had expected to be, but on repeated listens I've grown to really like it. Thing about Ten is though, for me, I usually liked their albums on first listen, so to have to allow one to sink in is a new feeling for me. This was especially galling as I had waited five years for a new Ten album since their previous
The Twilight Chronicles. Nevertheless, this song has the classic Ten sound, with Gary Hughes on perfect form as ever and a very melodic/AOR style chorus that grabs you, rocking along nicely. Kind of song that should have played really well on radio, but, story of Ten's career, they never get near the airwaves. Hey, it's the world's loss. Maybe.
