US

Peter is one moody son-of-a-gun. Take away all the electronics and world music stylings and you basically have an easy listening adult contemporary album with two tracks, ('Steam', 'Kiss That Frog') that will make you move a body part. Now, I'm not against a moody, brooding track or two, but "US" is filled to the brim. I rather enjoy the "Secret World Live" DVD more, it has an immediacy lacking on the album proper. For me, 'Digging In The Dirt' has a combination of the two styles, an underlining broodiness, but a bass line that propels the song. I know Peter is a serious dude. It's nice though when he allows himself a bit of humor, ('Kiss That Frog'). I only wish on this album he mixed it up a little more.
