| Have only had this one for a week, but it is growing on me with every spin. After the recent spate of pretty average Scandie releases,this one definately ups the odds somewhat. The vocals take a bit of getting into, but musically wise this has all things present and correct with special note for some excellent song arrangements (with some terrific Keyboards in the mix) & a very nice warm rounded production. If 80'S AOR/Pomp is your thing, then this one comes very highly recommended from me.

| I can't be that enthusiastic about this release ! Musically, everything is fine, but the singer is very, very weak !!! And for an AOR act, the singer is crucial. Search another singer immediately, guys ! And dear Jez, pomp ? ! I don't hear it. O.K., lots of keys, but not pomp IMO. Decent but not spectacular and there are lots of better CD's out at the moment !

| There is definately a Pomp edge to the arrangements to some of the songs on this.

| This is a comfortable slice of A.O.R.tinged with a bit of pomp,though not enough for people to criticise.Well put together and has a good sound,but unlike others,I have no misgivings over the vocalist.

Now on this one i totally agree ( as almost each time  ) with Jezz. This album growns and growns on me with every spin. Be ordering the offical cd next week. Just have cdr now. Man this album is good. Way better then Northern Light or Sha Boom ( two scandi releases i also really liked tho). 8,6/10

| This very good ? Don't think so. Did the people who think this is very good, listen to the awful singer ! ? Boy, I repeat, the music is fine, but the singer is too bad for words ! The worst singer I've ever heard on an AOR album. Better than Northern Light, with lots of great singers ? Erik, you must be joking, my friend !

| Think you wasting your breath again Freak - no one is listening. You seem to be in the minority (again) with this one as it is getting good, solid reviews in most places. As I said above, the vocals do take a bit of time, but certainly aren't as bad you are making out.

| At least you listened, Jez !! Ha ! Ha ! Solid reviews, don't think so, my friend. Or are you living on another planet (yeah, that's the explanation for your weird reactions ! HA ! HA !) ? Music is good, singer is awful !

| Very similar to the House of Mirrors disc (but a little better IMO), this is classy pure AOR with some definite Pomp elements. Love the use of keys on this disc. It does sound a little thin, but - like the Greenhouze & House of Mirrors before it - that's just because the keys & guitar are higher in the mix than the rhythm section. "Anyone with a Broken Heart" is just awesome, but it's only really towards the end that this falls a little flat. Recommended. 8/10.

| Well, I picked up the Jap pressing on recommendation of a friend and have been listening to it constantly for about a month now. I have to say, this is one of the finest pieces released this year. It's hard to find good AOR (definitely radio ready sound) being released consistently of this quality. I love the tasty keys and just the right level of guitar in the mix. Vocals....hey, this singer has a quality that is unique and with the excellent harmonies, works to his advantage. A 9.0...

| This cd is a true gem to AOR fans like myself, the best AOR cd from last year acording to me. Keep up with the good work! A clear 10!

| One of the best records of 2005 for sure...i agree that vocalist isn't their best asset but music here is just superb so much 80s, so full of hooks and melodies that you can easily take this band as a 80s band...best keys job in a long time...Anywhere With A Broekn Heart is my fave here, just listen to the opening hook ..wow!

| Have you heard that Prayer is coming out with a new cd probably before christmas? The cd:s name is: Get What We Came For, you can also listen to sound clips on melodicrock.com!

| This is great aor album! You can hear that Tapani (the only songwriter) has listened classic 80´s aor albums a lot. Can´t believe that this band is from Oulu, Finland (just 200 km north where i live). Now, what happened with that 2nd cd?

| AOR Freaky is high on this gem. His voice is perfect for the material. Songs like Running Wild In The Night and End Of Time are instant AOR classics. Freaky, every band can't and doesn't want to sound like Journey or Valentine, but that doesn't make it bad. It makes it different. Variety in AOR has been sorely lacking in this genre and I welcome this new sound.

| Was a surprise for me when heard about this about year and half ago. Singer used to have a band called "Tanna" in the 80s if I am not mistaken.. Not the best singer but pretty good songs and OK production too.. and yep I am from Oulu, Finland where this band is coming I guess -miguel-

| Have to agree with both sides a little. This is some great melodic rock/AOE that a lot of collectors like. The only draw back is the lead singer. While he is not that bad, it could have been a lot better!
