What was that?

Review Score: (2/10)
After picking up on Paul again with "Flaming Pie", then "Run, Devil, Run" and then hearing good press about "Driving Rain", I was massively dissappointed when I struggled to listen to it the first time. What happened. I couldn't understand all the glowing reviews when confronted with hearing it. I mean, I even like "Wildlife". I forced myself to listen a couple times, a very unpleasant task. Is he trying to hard, or not at all? The songs are simplistic, the lyrics juvenile, and they go on forever and there are too many songs and the production and band are bad and..... I lent it to someone to listen to and I'm not in a hurry to get it back. Hopefully he has gotten it out of his system and the next one will be better, it couldn't be any worse.
