Neil Diamond
Headed for the Future
Genre: Pop Rock…?
0.5 out of 5
Oh, dear. Remember when I talked about artists that looked at what was going on in the world and started to write albums that reflected their worldview? (See Jackson Browne)
Neil wants in on that.
Only his approach is more “Uncool Uncle”. The synths…the over-wrought lyrics coupled with Schmaltz Rock vocals…it’s all in here. And it’s…not good.
It’s not even “Turn on your heart light” bad. It’s just objectively terrible.
And, yes, I listened to the whole thing. I hate myself just that much.
And now Neil is going to get a royalty check for streaming for, like, $.00000001 cent and he’s gonna be like, “Who the heck listened to that thing?!”.
