i went with "i always was your girl"

after going through a lot of their discography recently i think this is my favourite of theirs

Totally forgot I had a tube-station-sized poster of this album cover on my dorm-room wall one year.

Their songwriting didn't level off but their production skills improved; I'll take Worldwide, Amplified Heart and Walking Wounded

Also: The Language of Life is a fascinating stab at a big budget L.A. Anita Baker album that work.

i just adore these sort of sophisti-pop arrangements, even more than what they did afterwards

I still listen to Temperamental as much as any of their discs. Love these guys.

interesting results!

i also must concur re: temperamental — it's probably my second favorite album of theirs, after this one.
