Michael Bolton (Everybody's Crazy) 1985






Just like his Self-Titled album, Everybody's Crazy has more nostalgia going for it rather epic songs that hold up over the years. For me, this was one of my favorite albums when it came out and probably would have gotten a 10 Star rating back then. What about now? I'd give it a very generois 4 1/2 Stars when in actuality it's about a 4 at best. I remember this being a kick ass Hard Rock album back in the day, but listening to it now, not so much. Half the album is melodic AOR inspired songwriting geared strictly for the radio. That is if he could ever get it on the radio.

The first two tracks are by far the best here. Save Our Love probably ranks at the #2 slot for best Bolton song ever with its booming drum opening and infectious chorus. In the #2 slot for best Bolton song would be Fools Game from his previous album. So, what song is #1? Easily, without a doubt, it's Everybody's Crazy. Aside from the kick ass-ness of the music that is driving the song. The drum opening (very similar to Save Our Love), the the blistering guitar solos and the powerful vocals. It is THE best song lyrically he has ever written. Talk about clever writing. Just listen to the song, word for word. It's epic and it tells a cool story too.

The rest of the album, although good, just can not touch either of the first two tracks sonically or lyrically. I definitely recommend this to anyone that wants to sample something that Michael was known for that isn't sappy and lame which he would eventually make millions doing.
