A masterpiece that puts more thought into pop.
The overall sound is flashy, but it has an 80's feel to it.
It reached number one in the UK and number 24 in the US. Produced by Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley. Includes hits "Pills and Soap," "Let Them All Talk," and the pop tune "The Element Within Her."
