Disco de Fool's Garden: “For Sale”

you can feel merry, sunny, pitiful, gloomy,,, all in this album.

One of the few albums I can listen to all the way through without skipping any songs and then promptly listen to again. When I am down they are an honest pick-me-up.

When I bought Go and ask peggy for the principal thing, I really wanted more of Fool's Garden. Then this one came. Well, it's an almost perfect cd. The lyrics aren't always very good, but the melody, like, I can listen to most of these songs a zillion times and not get bored. Fool's Garden doesn't really have it's own style. Sometimes they use the mellowtron in their songs, and makes it just like the beatles made their songs. Volker Hinkels voice is almost like the one of Sting.. Some numbers are undoubtly inspired by U2. Anyone I know really digs this cd!

I was really excited to see "Suzy" playing on VH1 in Germany. Fool's Garden seemed like it was a one-hit wonder with "Lemon Tree" back in 1996. "Suzy" is a wonderful song, and I can listen to it over and over again. Unfortunately, the rest of the album isn't quite up to par. There are moments of great things happening, but a lot of the lyrics seem to be overly confusing. However, it's not a bad album to listen to, and i've enjoyed listening to it many times.
