very very good album!!

From: mokong Date: September 2, 2003 at 20:10
excellent released from this English AOR/melodic rock group. RECOMMENDED

From: Andy Date: September 14, 2003 at 14:14
Polished AOR not unlike 'Jeff Canneta' pomp-ish, style-ish and very MELODIC with clever use of restrained keyboards.BUY.

From: Rycheage Date: September 15, 2003 at 16:48
Excellent AOR pomp. "Save Me Tonight", "Last Known Survivors", and "You Should Be Gone" are polished gems. "Watching You" is an awesome ballad which reminds me of British flavored AOR. All in all, an excellent CD from Newman. 9.0/10.

From: Jarda Date: March 22, 2004 at 3:08
Kdo chce muziku,která ho chytne hned od začátku ať neváhá.Vše co od Newmana vyšlo je SUPER.VELICE MELODICKÉ A CHYTLAVÉ.

From: Max Date: May 31, 2004 at 2:16
This is not pomp, it is just high quality British melodic rock

From: jeff Date: September 1, 2004 at 19:36
from what i've heard, it's good.sounds like frontline

From: Geoff Date: September 1, 2004 at 22:05
Never a poor moment from the Newman camp, and this ensures that status is kept. The first song is a killer melodic hard rocker and sets the mood. The next three drop in quality, but by the time 'You should be gone' hits there is no looking back. Every single song inclusive and after is excellent, ending up with the beautiful, moving ballad 'Worlds apart'. One of my fave tracks and a real tear jerker ,but for excellence! Hugely recommended release!

From: Max Date: September 9, 2004 at 1:30
Judging by the picture in the back cover, Steve looks like the actor Alan Rickman (the main bad guy from the best movie ever,Die Hard)

From: beto Date: September 20, 2004 at 21:17
mis favoritas son la 1,6,8 y la 11.PARA AMANTES DE LO S PRIMEROS FM Y DEL AOR PURO CON EXCELENTES COROS, QUIZAS LE FALTA UN POQUITO DE VARIEDAD PERO VALE LA PENA APOYARLOS

From: Max Date: November 26, 2004 at 2:21
beto, que tal la 2? Excelente cancion de AOR puro.

From: Aires Sil Date: December 9, 2004 at 3:37
What You Do to Me - amazing track ! All in all, a good CD from Newman. 8.0/10.

From: juan carlos Date: March 15, 2005 at 22:18
bueno beto a tu lista agregraria la 5 y 9 ;-)

From: Rafo Phoenix Date: February 10, 2006 at 22:31
Of Course another Very Good Album from Newman, AOR/Melodic Rock del bueno encontraras tambien en este y que sigan saliendo mas albums y bandas como esta y larga vida a "Steve Newman" se nota que es un hombre de un gusto unico y con una personalidad de admirar con valores formados y en el camino del bien eso es la esencia del AOR y el Rock Melodico esto es musica para los Chicos Buenos de la Pelicula que mejor que eso nada se compara a la sensacion de ser el Campeon aunque debas sufrir mucho.8/10

From: juan carlos Date: January 13, 2007 at 17:27
Comentando mas ampliamente.. Gran disco de Newman donde se encuentra su mejor canción hecha por él y no es otra que "Worlds Apart" una balada estremecedora que me recuerda a los Journey, se mete en mis top 30.. Producción mas que aceptable, "You Should Be gone" otro temazo con un coro que pide mas, "Watching You" un MidTempo extraordinario, bello. La 1,7,8,9 también buenos temas. Debería haber mas comentarios.. Recomendadísimo 8.8/10

From: Swazi Date: October 28, 2008 at 4:39
I somehow missed writing a comment for this release. Anyway, what an absolutely brilliant CD !! One of my faves in my collection and one I will keep on spinning until the day I die. Nuff said !!

From: hair metal again Date: October 4, 2011 at 2:56
excellent release by NEWMAN !in this one Steve writes some of his finest songs like "you should be gone","watching you","don t keep me waiting","what you do to me".for me this is commercial hard rock very well performed and in my book this is essential

From: rick kerch vzla Date: November 10, 2011 at 19:59
A good album but not as good as the previews one "Dance In The Fire" IMHO but still manages to be considered another good shot by Newman(a band that the word "bad" seems to be out of their personal dictionary)..."Save Me Tonight","Last Known Survivors","You Should Be Gone","Heart V Desire","What You Do To Me" & "Sign Of The Modern Times" easily in everybody's book ...85/100
