you see, i agree that rush of blood was their best. but if you listen to their albums in succession then one would hear a general watering down of their music. their songs have become easier to digest than white rice. i don't think that they will be going back to their old sound because they have found that age old music secret: easier to digest = more sales!

i would hold off on listening to it. it's really nothing special. not bad. but it is obviously an album made with every intention of making the general public and as many average joes as possbile like it. it is an album made to sell.
and if you do listen then don't enjoy the title track too much because it is literally stolen from joe satriani's "If I Could Fly"
