Maybe somebody hit the dolby switch too many times or something. Perhaps I should try a U.S. copy and see if it's any clearer?
No, you're right. The album is, on the whole, pretty muddy sounding. But the songs themselves are excellent. Recast live, "Bermuda Triangle" and "Angel" are outstanding. Chris's "Come a Little Bit Closer" and "Prove Your Love" are great tunes that would benefit from better arrangements and a crisper, cleaner production sound.

Notwithstanding some of the problems with production, the title tune comes off sounding pretty lively and exciting, I think.
