From now present new RW album only in advance second single "Bodies" stands out in my opinion. A truly captivating produced song that will also live safely unfold its magic. Except for the still fairly brisk, although unfortunately quite flat "Do You Mind" However RW must certainly be careful with live presentation of the rest of published material that he did not fall asleep the fans. So I can not imagine that so many carried the same ballads will work live fine. At every corner of a outweighs orchestral aufgepushtes sound foundation, which partly very pathetic, zuckergußmäßig and corny comes across my mind. One way or another ballad's ok, but equal to 75% of the entire album? Sounds to me after winter just before nightfall in the living room and is certainly the older generation do not irritate. But the current material somewhere during a mega open-air next summer at a huge show? In my opinion, rather difficult to imagine. There are one or two more "Old-styled Disco Tracks" that sound very much like the Pet Shop Boys and will be soon forgotten. But well, of course, the album was first time produced safely in terms of top sales figures. Therefore, logically, also the date of publication, to match the pre-Christmas period. For this promotion, the very moderate for a pre-order pricing (at least during the release weekend) and just the time of year ("I need urgently a gift, oh I'll take the new CD RW with. As Grandpa does not fall even from your sofa!") gigantic sales will naturally arise automatically. No Question. Therefore RKTVS is certainly one of, if not the most successful album of the year. Just a pity that the album does not have a single other song that has the potential of "Bodies". Because "Bodies" has in my opinion the only track of this album what it takes to RW classics. Or does anyone believe that a single the rest of the songs in 25 years will be released on the 4th RW Best-of compilation?
