Well, I'd have to say that this is a fun couple of songs, a little rusty - almost deteriorating - production... but hey who cares, it would be hypocritical of me if to say I am not tapping my fingers to the beat... To sum it all up I would say it's, well, pop... As simple as that... Fun finger tapping pop songs... But I give great credit for the story telling bit... Not your average topic for a lyric, but it works... A lot... Cheers bros...
