I love the piano. I wish they used more piano on other songs, but at least they did this one. I wished that the song "Calumny" on In the Meantime had gotten this type of piano arrangement.
I have trouble getting passed the "You are the reason for my happiness..." line. I really wanted to (and thought I would) love this album but for me it goes downhill fast after the third song and only revives itself at the last song. But it's still new and may grow on me.
