The Odd Couple
by Roy Luckett
May 22nd, 2008
The spectacular “Crazy,” omnipresent on radio stations a couple of years ago without ever losing its luster, is not matched on this new album. Then again, not much could. Nevertheless, the album as a whole is more focused than its predecessor, and maybe more consistent. And there are some gems, too. For example, “Run” is an adrenaline rush that will have you running faster than normal on the treadmill, or dancing more intensely than usual on the dancefloor. It is a short and sweet stunner that leaves you spent but wanting more. The Odd Couple has a darker feel than the first album (no smiley faces here) but that shouldn’t keep you from checking it out.
