Album Review
For fans bowled over by their debut disc's heady and minimalist mix of tribal percussion, expressionist camp, and distinctly un-ska-like songs (scant residuals here from the trio's time with the Specials), Fun Boy Three's second album, Waiting, with its slicker production and decidedly more pop-flavored sound, was probably something of a shock. But what an enjoyable jolt it was. Along with the Terry Hall-penned "Our Lips Are Sealed" (also a Go-Go's hit), other highlights include the cinematically tango-tinged "Things We Do" and the spookily playful "We're Having All the Fun." The disc also features plenty of the band's wry and spot-on lyrics, which range from the comical strains of the ganja cut "Farm Yard Connecting" to an account of child molestation in "Fancy That." Topped off with David Byrne's fine production work, Waiting ranks way beyond the second-rate status it often gets saddled with.
Customer Reviews
Classic old school vibes
Good times were had with good music. It's a shame people dont look in the loft spaces and find and play music that just wasn't created in evening or weekend as it appears to be now. Long live true British pop. Wake up you youngsters and listen to life lyrics, not soap stories with a synth.
Boy, you'll have Fun if you listen to a track or Three
Rated Tracks: The Tunnel of Love, We're Having all the Fun, The Farm Yard Connection. Amazingly catchy lyrics and sardonic delivery. Admittedly, I am a little obsessed with Terry Hall but even my biased opinion counts for something!
Blast from the past
I bought this on vinyl first time around and loved every minute. Thank you iTunes, its still fab!
