Changing withe the times to survive, Rod lost all creativity and spontaneity. THis CD demonstrate this very clearly. A shame.

I am a long time fan, and grew up on Rod's "Rocking" sound. I'll admit, when I heard samples of this, I thought Rod had sold out. However, he's taken his 80's sound (Which had run it's gambit) to the next level. It's a new sound, a little contemporary, but it's still 100%, CLASSIC ROD STEWART! All in all, this is one of his best albums of the last ten years! WELCOME BACK, ROD!

This is not the best Rod Stewart album. I enjoyed it but I would not recomend it to a casual fan. The title song is not very good it is not Rod's best style (although he's better at it than *NSTYNK. My favorite tracks are 'I Can't Deny It' 'Loveless' and the duet with that Helicopter Girl.Although this is a very good CD, out of his last three albums (When We Were The New Boys, this CD, and It Had To Be You...The Great American Songbook) When We Were The New Boys is first and this is last.If you are a big Rod fan buy this.

Don't buy this disc...It stinks. No, I'm not talking about Rod's voice...I'm talking about over-production, overuse of electronic, synthetic, sampled garbage. Rod has real talent...he should use it. If you like "Every Picture Tells A Story" or "When We Were The New Boys", stay away from this one.

That Voice- That Style- That Charisma.Rod has one of the most unusual voices in the industry. The fact that he is still around belting out the tunes is proof that the man is doing something right. This CD is so chock full of great songs. Some deep, some light but most of all just right. The single, "I can't deny it", just grows on you and your are snapping your fingers and doing a little shutterbug around the house. If you love the sounds of Maggie May and some of his older works, then you will like this CD because it's modern yet still very much Rod without all the extra mumbo jumbo to cloud over his voice.I rank this right up there with one of the must have CD's for the year. It's on the heavy rotation along with Sade and David Grey. Get this, you won't be sorry !!

This is your typical "boy meets vampire" book. What am I saying? No, it's NOT! This is the Christopher Moore version, which means it is off the wall-crazy.Tommy, a nineteen -year-old from Indiana, moves to San Francisco to be a writer. Jody, who has just become a vampire, latches onto Tommy to do her bidding in the daytime. Romance (or at least sex and bloodsucking) ensues.Tommy, who works the nightshift at a local grocery store (just until the writing thing takes off), tries to help Jody learn what vampires can and can't do by reading all the best-selling vampire books. There is also a hunt for another vampire who is trying to frame Jody and Tommy for some brutal murders committed in the bay area. Tommy's crew from the grocery store takes time off from their past times, such as turkey bowling, to help in the hunt.Along the way Moore brings his brand of humor to the club scene, dating, vampire lore, and turtle care. This is a funny book that has a surprisingly interesting plot.
