What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (cd)



I see his name has been changed to Sananda Francesco Maitreya. Not sure which is worse. One hit wonder with Wishing
Well off his debut, this is his third album. Don't think this is as good as that debut, and I haven't heard the
follow up. Still a decent album with three love tracks and two do not likes, not counting the 30 second throw away
intro. Reminds me of Prince somewhat, and he gives a shoutout to him in the notes, along with the Boss. Didn't know
he was more popular in the U.K. where this album peaked at #4. Barely noticed here at #119. Four singles were
released of which Do You Love Me Like You Say and Delicate both reached #14 over there. Delicate was the only one
that charted here, at #74. His follow up album to this performed even worse. Maybe the name change was an attempt
to reinvent himself, which has failed thusfar. Maybe some stupid squiggly sign for a name would have worked better.
Favorite for me is the beautiful Let Her Down Easy.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Seasons

Best Track - Let Her Down Easy

You're top man on the scene
You don't think life comes in between
But hey, she's just seventeen
She feels that she's a worldly girl
But man you've been around the world
She is just some worried daddy's girl
Even though there's nothing I can say
To cheat you and nature any way

Let her down easy
Her heart is on a dime
Let her down easy
And you'll grow up in time

In her strawberry eyes
The way she sees you signifies
That she's susceptible to your velvet lies
But if you must lay her down
May a butterscotch glow be her dressing gown
And please do not lead her on when you leave town
Even though there's nothing I can say
To cheat you and nature any way

Let her down easy
Her heart is on the line
Let her down easy
And you'll grow up in time

She's a woman now
With a daughter to make her proud
In her crayon world of paper clouds
She still remembers you
The first boy that she gave it to
And she laughs at how little then she knew
Her daughter's five and her grandfather adores her (of course)

Let her down easy
Her heart is on the line
Let her down easy
And you'll grow up in time
