This album is severely lacking Kotecha, Falk & Yacoub. No surprise that the best song on the album is the only one with the GODS their involvement.
"MM" is a "Pour Some Sugar On Me" ripoff. "Diana" is pretty cute but "Back For You" makes it reductive. "Strong" has amazing verses but mess at it ripping off Kelly Clarkson and also "Iris" by Goo Goo Dolls. And "Does He Know" ripping off "Jesse's Girl". The KINGS their unoriginality.
Thankfully "Happiness", "You And I" and "Little White Lies" liven up what is an otherwise pretty basic effort with their HOLINESS. "Through The Dark" also kind of hits the spot, maybe because of how shameless it is in its reductiveness.
The bonus tracks all being a horror show though, eek! Nothing is touching "Nogody Compares" or "Magic" and "Still The One".

Better melodies, more impressive production, more well thought-out song structures.

Shellback & Kotecha's brand of pure pop > Scott/Bunetta/Ryan's Bon Jovi b-sides. Executive producer of this album needs fired, just saying.

Hope it doesn't flop commercially, but a certain curse looks like it may be coming for this boyband.
