forgetable album
I love Bryan Adams, I really do, for 24 years now, but this album is really bad, its one of those that just gets forgotten. He needs to do more rock, like Waking up the Neighbours and Reckless. Too much mushy stuff.

Similar to 18 til I die.
This has some great songs on it (East Side Story, Open Road) but there are some right duffers too (Flying, Why do you have to be so hard to love). Bryan Adams has struggled to release a consistent album since Waking up the Neighbours. This album doesn't stop the rot!

Bryan's Best Work
"There was this girl I used to see/Down on forty-second street/She walked by on her way to work/And made the air smell so sweet" br / br /These are the opening lines to this, one of my favourite albums and an exceptional body of work. He takes us from those lines in East Side Story, through such potential classics as This Side of Paradise and Flying and to wonderful songs like Why Do You Have to be So Hard to Love. br / br /A truly great offering. And I can't wait for his next CD! br / br /

Bryan at his best!
Excellent new album from one of the best artists ever. Bryan has been recording now for 25 years and has outlasted alot of supposed better acts. His latest recording is top notch. The title track and open road are Adams at his rocking best but their are also some slower paced numbers such as why do you have to be so hard to love and Flyin which will appeal to fans of his ballads. This is a worth entry in Bryan's discography and should be top of your wish list. Buy it!!!!!!!

These are crazy days
Like so many others have said, if you like Bryan Adams, you won't be disappointed by his latest effort. It's everything that makes Bryan great! pMy favourite ballad is Why Do You Have To Be So Hard To Love. Really beautiful song. Open Road is classic BA, I can just imagine driving away from the bright lights of the city onto the open road, listening to this track. Blessing in Disguise is reminiscent of Elvis and a great way to finish the album.pBA comes across as slightly jaded on many of these tracks, for example on Room Service particularly, 'its a different melody but the same old song' or This Side of Paradise 'i dont wanna hear no lies, i just want something to believe in, its a lonely lonely road we're on.' East Side Story 'seems like the ones that you can't have, are the ones you want the most'. Having said that, in no way is this a depressing collection of songs. It seems to show a mature side of BA, sort of reflective with thoughtful lyrics, but at the same time the songs themselves remain upbeat and catchy. pThis is a great album from BA, well worth the wait (shame it is so short though). Songs that will stick in your head and have you singing along after only a few listens. It is definitely different to his earlier works, but I agree with another reviewer who said BA is just moving with the times. If you're tempted, buy it....it won't let you down!
