This is one of the very few Erasure albums where I can't think of a single track where I would want to place in my mp3 play list.

Long time Erasure fan straight from the 80's. I have collected and collected. I have gone out of my way to get import singles before internet purchasing was an option. Erasure is my favorite. They are the only repeat artists in my collection, so it was with saddened heart for me that when I listened to this I heard all my favorite music with completely different words. Some say masterful. I say Huey Lewis and the News on this one. Sorry.

I don't know why I waited so long to get the latest Erasure album LIGHT AT THE END OF THE WORLD since I am such a huge fan of the synthpop group. I am glad I finally got it. LIGHT AT THE END OF THE WORLD is classic Erasure all the way with the group's infectious melodies and earnest lyrics. The album is just under 40 minutes long but it is 39 minutes of synthpop bliss. The lyrics on this album reflects the break up between Andy and his partner, a relationship that lasted for nearly twenty years. Despite the tone of the subject matter, the songs are surprisingly upbeat beat-wise as well as lyrically. There is no bitterness or rancor. One of my personal favorite songs on the album is "Sunday Girl". The addictively catchy melodies makes it hard for me to listen to the song just once. The rest of the album is a lot of fun to listen to. I have to admit I had to listen to the album a few times before the music really sunk into my head. Overall great album.

And that is a good thing! Very similar sound to Nightbird, and, in fact, I think anyone that liked that popular release will like this also. Sunday Girl, Glass Angel, I Could Fall in Love With You, and When a Lover Leaves you are my favorite songs here. However, there are no weak tracks on this album, all ten songs are excellent.
