Wreckless Eric is a brilliant lyricist and you can't help but love lines like "I should be lying on that sun-soaked ... more ... beach with her, caressing her warm brown skin. And then in a year, or maybe not quite, we'll be sharing the same next of kin".
Track 5 - A Pop Song - made some impact in the US at the time I believe. It's a clever little song about writing a song because your record company wants to get a hit out of you. Good stuff.
The way Eric spits out the name Veronica on the song of the same name is a joy to the ears. Sweet, romantic lyrics but snarling vocals. Something about that combination works very well.

He is basically a one man band, singer/songwriter who wrote some witty, snotty, beautiful, nasty post-punk records. The production is pretty lame on some of this stuff but the songs are mostly excellent. Opening track, Whole Wide World is probably the most famous song on the album and it ...
