Made the 80s a memorable decade.

Review Score: (10/10)
Phil Collins reached his commercial peak with 1985s No Jacket Required and this album deserved all the notice it got. It's fun upbeat music that is not childish and cheap like most upbeat stuff today.

Weve all heard One More Night and Take Me Home so there no need to explain these track in detail but I can say though these are among his best songs to date. Yet there are several other great track to check out on this CD.

Long Long Way To Go is totally opposite to the other tracks on this CD. It's very atmospheric moody and almost melancholy. I almost call it the dark clouds on an otherwise relatively sunny album. Its one of my favorites. The song ends with the recording being interrupted instead of fading out.

Don't Lose My Number gives me a feeling of nostalgia. It's one of the best songs from the 80s. Definately a highlight.

There is one bonus track called We Said Hello Goodbye. It's a melancholy yet uplifting song at the same time. I believe this is a bonus track available only on CD(Thank God I get my music on CD).

Sussudio kind of reminds me of Princes 1999 with similar bass hooks and drum rhythm and keyboards.

The truth is I enjoy the whole album. Definately worth buying.
