Feeling Strangely Fine - Semisonic
Rating: 3/10

Every song has the same slow beat just like "Closing Time". There is nothing extremely different about this album or about each individual song that really catches your ear. If you listen to this album straight through, it's kind of just like listening to one song over and over. The lyrics and meanings are different but the slow/soft rhythm stays through out the entire album.

"Going To The Movies", the last song on the album, is one of the slowest. It has a relatively sad mood to it but is really good for mellowing out. "Closing Time", the first hit from this album, is a catchy tune and is quite popular but unless you like songs that sound just like that, then you probably won't like this album.
