Having all of Merritt's full length albums, I have to admit that none of them have ever touched me so close or lasted as long as this one has. The album is a perfect variety of synths, and each song sound so amazingly different from the next.
My favorites off the album include "Real Summer" and "Memories Of Love", both are which are perfect pop songs. "Real Summer" demonstrates how good bubblegum pop music can be despite what mainstream artists deliver. "Memories Of Love" isn't a wet, poppy song like many found throughout the album. It's still full of wonderful synths, and it grabs anyone's attention at once with its non-sugar sound and its hilarious lyrics- "Some are like a sip of champagne, some are harder stuff. Some are advertising campaignes. Memories of love."
Other key highlights of the album include "She-Devils Of The Deep" (a sly, hypnotic song) and "Hopeless", which is too amazing to describe with words.
"But You're So Beautiful" is another song that shows how good pop music can be without the wet, sugary sound. Out of all the songs on this album, "But You're So Beautiful" is the one that gets stuck in my head the most. But hey, I'm not complaining.
As I said before, this album is simply wonderful. It can even stand up to "69 Love Songs" and sound perfect. In my opinion, "Memories Of Love" is Stephin Merritt's best album to date, though others may beg to differ. Either way, there's no doubt in my mind that you'll love this album!
