Music reviews of Stars We Are
Music Review: The Very Best Marc Almond Album!!
Rating: 5 Stars
This album was released in 1988 and was a very big hit on MTV and college radio in the early years of "alternative radio" when the word alternative meant that what you were listening to was something not likely to be embraced by the masses. Of course that is not to say that Marc Almond is not embraceable. As a matter of fact, Marc Almond is a pure genius, and America, in particular, hasnt always been very supportive of Marc's ingenuity throughout the years. This album is his biggest in America as solo efforts go. "Tears Run Rings" and "Bittersweet" were big college radio hits and the album was very successful as well. The song writing is as effortless as always. you cant help but think that the words just flow from his majestic pen. Other singles such as "Only the Moment" and "Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart" [Marc's Biggest Hit Ever] also made a large impact in England and Europe as well. This was Marc's most commercially successful period and ensured him of future releases w/EMI at the time. From the opening mind-blowing "The Stars We Are" to the Awesome "The Sensualist" (my personal favourite) the album takes you through hot & cold and every human emotion possible. Marc Almond's penchant for the surreal is also evident in "The Very Last Pearl" another catchy song which demands attention, There are a great deal of slower Marc Almondeey songs like "Kept Boy", "She Took My Soul In Istanbul", "The Frost Comes Tomorrow", etc which are some of Marc's most beautiful and riveting works. There isn't a bad song in the lot. This album doesn't ever get too dull or boring. It doesn't ever slow down too much that it becomes over-bearing. This album is a true gem and worthy of a top spot on anyone's fave list. Five Stars doesn't do this masterpiece justice..It Is pure exstasy..BRAVO!!
