Kate's second worst album going to win the 89 poll? Must be a bad year

Which do you regard as the worst, incidentally?

Exactly, bought it, listened to it once, felt it was very Andrew Lloyd Webber, and I can't stand ALW

Although Ian is too late to nominate, this is a bloody great album.

I agree, it's her worst but I still really love the first track on it where she duets with Bertie. Worth buying just for that, in my opinion.

How can you judge a album after one listen, yes not great by any means but to compare Kate's album to ALW is ludicrous :(

I can easily tell after one listen...sometimes an album is just plain bad. The Elton John in particular stinks the album up badly and it's convoluted, forced and sits badly in her cannon...I think there's one track I'd take off it as tolerable...And yes it does remind me of the sort of inane music/lyrics ALW and whomever he's collaborating with writes.

Problem is it was a massive drop off for a talented artist and we do it with Leeds..We know how good we can play so we slag off a poor game and defeat even though it's still better than most teams on a bad day.

I will admit it's not in the same league as her previous album 'Aerial'

Not even close...The Dreaming/Lionheart at the top

Kick Inside, Hounds, Red Shoes, Never and Aerial are a small drop down
