English prog rockers Alan Parsons, Eric Woolfson and Andrew Powell formed this group after Parsons frustration over what he felt was his work being restricted by the artists he was producing. How dare them artists want to have control over their work. Really liked the early albums, but they ;ost me a few before this one, which I think may be their worst for me. With 3 instrumental tracks and 4 different lead vocalists on the other 6, there's just no continuity here. One of those instrumentals, Where's The Walrus, earned a grammy nomination for best rock instrumental. The album reached #43 in the states, with a single of the title track at #82.
I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM
Worst Track - Chinese Whispers
Best Track - In The Real World
One more compromise I won't be making
One more easy way out I won't be taking
So many chances don't come twice
So many eyes are made of ice
One more cheating hand I won't be shaking
One more substitute I won't be trying
One more piece of the rock that I'm not buying
So many times we stand and fight
So many reasons can't be right
One more simple truth I'm not denying
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many lonely nights in the real world
Too many fools who don't think twice
Too many ways to pay the price
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
One more sacrifice I won't be making
One more golden rule I won't be breaking
No one to let me state my case
No one to tell me to my face
One more sweet surprise I won't be faking
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many lonely nights in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many lonely nights in the real world
Too many games that I can't play
Too many windmills in my way
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many lonely nights in the real world
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
