6. Better Days
“Better Days” is somewaht dramatic and emotional and has a cool jam thing in the end. The darker, piano-dominated sound is certainly a change, and definetly a welcome one. True, the loss of Hodgson is lamentable, but don’t worry about it too much, because without him, Supertramp is alive and well.”
5. No Inbetween
“The melancholy “No Inbetween,” is quite slow moving, but still holds your interest. In some many ways, this is my favorite piece on the whole album and this remaster does a wonderful job of expressing the resonance of the song’s opening ringing bells.”

4. Ever Open Door
“The album closes with the optimistic glimmers of “Ever Open Door” with just Rick and his keyboards (piano and synthesizers). The brief-but-beautiful coda, “Ever Open Door,” featuring just Rick Davies, his piano & synths, ending the album on a very poignant note.”
3. Still in Love
“Still in Love”, which is kind of a sequel to 1982’s “My Kind of Lady” but not a re-make of the Famous Last Words track. Davies reminds us of his affection for 50’s flavored pop with the fun tune, “Still In Love.”

2. Brother Where You Bound
“Brother where you Bound (the song) is 16 minutes long and is an incredible example of truly progressive music. Especially considering the AOR infested period that this music was created during(1985).”
1. Cannonball
“The very strong single Cannonball affected me the same way that The Alan Parsons Project’s Stereotomy did; defiant of trends and thoroughly engaging! An exceptional poly-rhythmic song that never overstays its welcome despite being seven-and-a-half minutes long. If, for any reason, you are reluctant to purchase the entire album, dip your toe in the water here!”
