Will someone please tell these four men
That the Latin craze is so last year.
“Revelation” could have been written
Many songs are sub-Backstreet Boys pap
The highlight being a song called “Dizzy”:
Imagine a butch Posh Spice doing a rap
Over the Truesteppers little garage ditty.
So we have an album of overproduced
R’n’B. The lyrics aren’t much better.
Boy yearns after girl; girl is seduced
And for that they needed a team of writers?!
Nicely sung boys, but terribly unoriginal
A bit like a wet weekend in Hull.
