I'm glad I can like Sanity again, I thought EVERYONE hated it. Woo hoo!

I'm with the one that's with his fat northern on this topic. BTATS is that:
majestic! But opposite to you i rate "Sanity" very low (i usually skip it),
i hate those -right- too cheesy keyboards; but all the rest of the tracks
are pretty good. "Adorations", "Chessboards", "Victory", "Rubicon", "Goodbye
to the village" and "Exile" are imho outstanding. You should give it another
chance Greg. Can't wait to get those remasters! Javier .mexico.city.

I'm with my fat northern namesake on this.



Brighter Than A Thousand Suns is majestic.? Sanity is one of my favourite KJ
tracks;? Rubicon and Twilight of the Mortal aren't far behind.

The period 84-86 is when Geordie's sound peaked - sadly it has been downhill
ever since (ditto Jaz's voice).

Noooooooooooooooooo.....!



I love btats but then again it reminds me of being 16 & having a whale of a
time.




I can see where you're coming from but imho geordies guitar sound is at it's
peak on this album (& night time).

Also his playing is?beautifully?creative.

OK, synth-poppy track here but the middle 8 & outro on Sanity are inspired
bits of playing.

Rubicon is a?truly?hummus?track & again, his playing on that ae geat.

Adorations again some beautiful playing.




geordie - he am de-bestest & I drink the moisture from his gusset

I think you could do a million remixes, remasters, and rerecordings of BTATS
and it would still sound like lame New Romantic poop. I think it's even
worse than Outside the Gate (at least that has some good lyrics and
interesting arrangements).
