After twenty five years of trying (and wanting) to like this album, it suddenly clicked with me a couple of weeks ago. I've said it many times over the years - including on PE - that I just couldn't get into it apart from the instrumentals... but for some reason I recently gave it one more chance and I really liked it, and have been listening quite a bit lately! Strange how that can happen... Anyway, although I'm still not fond of some of "Lucky Me" or the title track, the rest of the album is great, and pure Banks. "For A While" is a real favourite now... "After The Lie" a close second. And I always have loved "The Waters Of Lethe"...
No rhyme or reason to it, but I'm glad it happened for me finally!
