A very weak album!

After a strong album "I Do not Know" (2011), this album is a disappointment down the line, both musically and lyrically.
"The album is lagging the pulse of time by several years afterward," was "laut.de", and they are right.
Why?
Well, musically it now brings Udos stale big band sound of "Pepe Lienhard Band", which apparently has missed the last 20 years.
The whole album sounds like heard before.
"Udo reloaded."
"Life are you" and "In Real Life" --- of the musical structure of the same song twice. And that on an album.

But the biggest disappointment are the lyrics.

Some Examples:

- "The man is the problem."
Mind it Udo earlier issues of contemporary history and the rivalry between the sexes smart wink to pack ("A worthy house"), then "The man ..." simply cheap ingratiating plea of ​​guilty to feminism.

- "My Goal."
"My goal is always to have a goal."
And this flat sense lasts almost 6 minutes.

- "Bird in a cage"
Udo wants to be free.
Oh yes, just like in 1989, "Without Mask" at the (strong) Song: "singer in chains."

- "The Transparent Man.
And once again a critical song about the Internet. First Udos view as very one-sided, and secondly, he has done it better ("You're seen through" to "I Do not Know").

The whole album sounds as if a talented "Idol" - Gewinner-- "I make time to Udo Jürgens" - get the chance to record a UJ album.

Sorry, Udo: "In Real Life" is musically and lyrically very weak!
That there is not only 1 star, which is at the final song "Ten to Eleven": tranquil, autobiografisch-- very strong!
