Lost Potential

"Low Life is an incredible song. One of the best of the year. It is also the type of song that screams for a remix. It is layered, has several different sections where the song varies, and has a great beat that could be manipulated for a remix. It's a re-mixer's dream and I was very exicted to see the results. Unfortunately, I was sorely disappointed in the re-mixes. They basically stuck in some rapper who repeats a stupid line over and over and basically ruins everything about the song. Yuck. What a shame. Get a new remix outfit Roland!! The single version is just the album version minus a few bars to cut the time down as expected.By the way, the album is great. It combines Roland's classic melodies and hooks with a nice new, trip-hop feel. Highly recommended--just don't get the remix single."
Roland Keeps Rollin' !!!

"I'll leave the other [...] to try and out-do each other with their attempts at glossy, wanna-be-professional critic verbage in describing Roland Orzabal's new album. Instead, I'll use simple words like phenomenal, fantastic, and fat! to describe this killer new release. Listen to it twice in a row and it'll make you want to listen to it at least once a day after that. How does this man keep things fresh and constantly improving with each new release? As much as I LOVED TFF and having Curt Smith's distinct voice be a part of the band, Roland keeps proving that not only does he not need the TFF moniker anymore, but that he was the true talent in the band all along!! If there's anything negative I can share it's the fact that Roland keeps us waiting too long between studio releases!"

"I have been a Roland fan since 93, when one night I stayed up late and happened to catch "Elemental" on VH1. I was entranced, and bought the album the next day. A picky music lover, I NEVER do that. Now Roland is my favorite "popular" artist (surpassing a previous obsession with R.E.M.) On "Tomcats Screaming Outside" he finally lets himself just... be himself. No personal messages- just pure delight. THE WHOLE ALBUM IS FOOD FOR MY SOUL. Low Life is just one of its many excellent tracks. (...)"
