First of all, I gotta say that Element hit me hard when they released Transform (and if the bastard that borrowed it to listen and still haven't returned it is reading this- you better return it or when I remember who you are, you'll be sorry!). So even that my policy is that I write only about what I like, I really tike Element so this review, while not positive, comes from a positive place.
This is nothing like Transform. Some very good musical moments (though not comparing to Transform), but very very bad lyrical moments. 3 songs have lyrics, done very well production-wise, but the lyrics, ppl... Anyone remember Modern Talking? That's what it is- Modern Talking. What on earth these guys where thinking? Spirit Zone? Did you listen to the lyrics? Wakey Wakey! Anybody in there?
Here are some quotes:
"baby baby one more day
let me wash your tears away
you take my heart you burn my soul
you blow my mind and I lose control
babe..."
And everybody together now:
"I wanna feel your magic flow, yeah yeah yeah..."
or the real strong one:
"baby baby one more thing
I'm gonna buy you a diamond ring
and if the diamond ring won't shine
we're gonna do it one more time, yeh"
And it goes on. Funny stuff. But also a bit sad for element. Is this what you have to convey to us??? Is that your vision of the full moon experience? I hope that’s not the case- I still have Transform in my head, and I can still feel it here in some excellent powerful musical moments like Rocket Exciter.
