Track by Track Review
We Might Find It The CD’s opener starts off with a Simple Minds sound to it.
Remember Me When I'm Gone This is a well written song about remembering someone when they’re gone – but you can get that from the title.
The Returning Sun The title track’s a nice catchy pop tune.
Falling Apart Together There is a nice 80s feel to this song.
Fork In The Road This one has very good insightful lyrics written and sung by Curnin.
Hope Springs Eternal Another well written song, this seems to be about a woman afraidof growing old
The Future’s Not What It Used To Be Here we have a good song with great lyrics that sound to me that is about not letting the media rule the future
Nothing Is Normal This track seems to be about how the real things are being replaced. It has a nice ethereal sound to it
The World Will Always Turn This cut has a reggae / funk beat to it. It’s a very good song.
Damned If You Do The CD's closing track is another well written and well played number.
