Ghost of You is like a teardrop shining under the moonlight. The air is ice cold and the darkness so deep. I like the drama of it, and basically, who else sounds like this?
It's not all darkness here though, Eden is a lovely pop song and the third track is a relaxed Bacharach and David cover. Beautiful End at the end is almost like a beginning, something uplifting about it, then you're ready to play it all again...
I don't know how many people read the short stories we offer by way of booklet sleeve, but some of them are mangled during the design process. At this point, we still did not own a computer, don't think anyone we knew did. All the stories were typed by someone else somehow, and this one suffered most. But, that's human! A fond memory.
Things we take for granted now, were not there then. I personally don't feel my age, but when you come to think about something like this, how things have changed! Yet, we can still enjoy and appreciate music just as we did back then. And I don't think the music Sugarfrost have released sounds old at all. Simply because we weren't trying to sound like anyone else.
