I think that certain people on this board who don't like Crush prefer stuff like "These Days".. They think that "deep" writing is always somewhat sad and depressing.. Crush is an upbeat album (most of it) and that just bothers idiotic fans who think they know everything.... Some people really didn't enjoy it.. I loved it. Until I got on this board, I saw nothing bad about Crush at all... At least it wasn't as "whiny" as These Days about love and everything.

And then there's that obvious "these are pop songs!!!!" thing that you hear.. Where is the "pop" on this album? I hear none. Crush was in the era of POP over-ride.. but it wasn't pop.. Some of it was MELLOW but that doesn't mean it's pop. Infact, I heard no pop sounds in any of the songs at all.. Heh.. Oh well.. Shallow as they may be, it's not a problem. I'm not really a critic like some on this board.
