What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library



Hadn't listened to this album in years as with most of my albums. Didn't realize how bad it was. I guess I know where the talent was and it wasn't with remaing members Gouldman and Stewart. Godley and Creme had left the group to do other work as a team. This is the eighth album as 10cc, but nothing close to the peak years. Andrew Gold had joined the band for this album, but never was a big fan of his either. The album did not even touch the charts in the U.S. or U.K. Even Gouldman was very critical of this work, much after the fact, of course. Numerous tracks were released as singles with none charting. A sad effort.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Run Away

Best Track - Tomorrows World Today

I'll tell you something you oughta know
We came a long way from the radio
But what's wrong with that?
Baby's what's wrong with that?

Now we got microchips, sci fi flicks
We got tomorrow's world today

Now there's something that I gotta say
Do you remember only yesterday
We had Blue Suede Shoes
Yeh, and we had Howard Hughes

Now we got holograms, CB hams
We got tomorrow's world today

At a time when the world is changing
Faster than ever before
Don't lose sight of the human touch
'Cause we ain't seen nothing yet
Oh no, we ain't seen nothing yet, uh huh

Now the children of the future
May take a trip to Mars
They might meet the Space Invaders on their way
'Cause we ain't seen nothing yet
Oh no, we ain't seen nothing yet, uh huh

Wish I had a calculator when I was at school
I was a simple mathematical fool
But now all that's changed
Yeh, we got computer games

And we got transplants, sperm banks
And body scanners
All there to help us survive
So we should think we're lucky
We got tomorrow's world today
