Ghosts is phenomenal and I've really grown on The Place I Love, it may be a bit clunky but it works, and works well.
I just love that "I'm making a stand against the world" refrain.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Yeah great line. Ghosts is also a great track as is Carnation with it's "look no further than the mirror" line. So many brilliant songs.

A lot of fans diss the Gift but though it has a couple of weak spots, I think it is still a great album.

Another grower. I actually don't dislike any song on that album, Trans-Global, Planner's Dream and The Gift are... ok but easily the weaker on there.

Happy Together, Ghosts, Hero, and of course Malice are exceptionally good tracks and I'm more than happy with it being my #3 album of theirs.

I really dig that Northern Soul/ Mod rock mix they had at the time. They could've easily have carried on and been anything but cabaret.

Agreed, and I think Bruce's "Circus" would have been better off as a b-side. I really wish they'd fully developed "Walking In Heaven's Sunshine" as I think it's a cracking track even in demo form.
