The former Asia man wheezes and warbles his way though another grandiose AOR set, this one a little more lyrically personal and introspective than his last. Top calibre AOR all the same, with the same mix of moving ballads and bombastic, Asia-style rockers. Personal highlights include 'The Last Thing On My Mind', 'You Against the World', 'Arkangel', 'After All' and 'Take These Tears' (which only appears on the Japanese pressing, but is one of the best bonus tracks I've ever heard.)

Not bad At All, Maybe Just too easy listening...

Unfortunately I've heard some really bad albums lately, and this is one of the worst. Bland, boring AOR with totally uninspiring tracks all the way through. Even fans of Mr Wetton, I suspect, would struggle to get through this.

Oh this is boring like MTV videos and more...I always loved his'Battle lines'album(grew up in aor with that one),please let me know if there are another great cd of John Wetton like that disc,thanks!This one will go away in one day ahaha!

Very dull & easily dismissed after only one listen. The only tracks worth any mention are "Nothing happens for nothing", "Emma", I can't lie anymore" & "Be careful what you wish for". Even those four are nothing special but just sound good compared to the rest of the album. The man can write better songs than this !!!

Not AOR in the real sense of the word but a pleasant album instead...easy listening like Ozziy's comment said above...some good tracks in the shape of "The Last Thing On My Mind","I Can't Lie Anymore","You Against The World"(nice),"Be Careful What You Wish For" & "Nothing Happens For Nothing"...84/100
