I do, as I`m a closet Euro-Pop fan.........I guess my secrets out now.

as do I, as I've noted before

but the one-finger playing really obscures the often good songwriting

I think Pal Waaktaar is one of the great songwriters of his generation. I don`t expect these bands to be great technically either and take the rough with the smooth there. If I want great songwriting and musicianship together, then I can put on somebody like The Mars Volta.

Outlandos d'Amour would have to be by far my favorite album. Don't listen to the Police a whole lot, but still a great album nonetheless.

Love there first two releases. Seen them live on reunion tour. Was a great show. Wish they'd record some new music in the future

I like Synchronicity far more than the other albums. The sound is much more modern.
