Can't say, I remember that song-title?<br/>
<br/>
I strongly recomend the Bacharach-album. I never considered it to be a concept-album, but I guess it could be.<br/>

<p>Never been a fan of EC myself, but I've heard a song or two from Mike Pell that I seem to remember liking.</p>
<p>Pump It Up - This one is pretty good. There's really nothing to dislike about it. Cool, cool bass work. And a nice driving beat. He's an okay singer, I've heard much worse.</p>
<p>What's So Funny - Another fairly decent song. I'm telling you, his bass player is pretty dang good. I like the simple style of their videos. But I just don't remember hearing much at all from…</p>

<p>What's So Funny - Another fairly decent song. I'm telling you, his bass player is pretty dang good. I like the simple style of their videos. But I just don't remember hearing much at all from this band when I was growing up. Maybe they just didn't translate well in the Southern United States. Yet they are in the RARHOF.</p>
<p>Veronica - I believe this is one of the few songs by EC that seem somewhat familiar. I know I've heard it, but I don't really think I've ever "listened" to it. But it's a really cool song, now that I'm paying attention. It shows that he can sing pretty good. Definitely his best performance so far.</p>
<p>The Other Side Of Summer - Not so sure about this one. It's not bad, just what I would imagine his music sounding like, and it really holds no interest for me. Though he does look more "cool" with the long hair and beard.</p>
<p>This House Is Empty Now - This is a beautiful song. There is no doubt in my mind now, he's a terrific singer. The song is so haunting, the type of music I love. The second song as well. Maybe I need to look this album up. I'm quite interested in it. Is it a concept album? Just curious. </p>
<p>Nice post Niels. I'm not interested in running out and picking up a bunch of his albums, but I am interested in picking up that last one. Maybe a greatest hits as well. Didn't he have a song called Everyday I Write The Book or something like that. Seems like that may have been his biggest hit here in the U.S.</p>
