    There's more down the line, heart-on-the-sleeve songcraft secreted, near-guiltily, in the album's latter half. [Mar 2012, p.99]

    There's much substance with the employment of piano, organ, synthesiser, guitar and horn solos, but the actual song structures and vocal performances don't share this same level of achievement.

    While the lyrics at times retain the smarts and wicked humor that we've come to both revel in and expect, the romantic ballads more than flirt with cliché.

    Not all of it works, but enough of that which is tried comes off to make it an interesting addition to a substantial career.

    Barry Adamson's I Will Set You Free is a mixed bag if there ever was one.

    It'd make great music for a trendy lounge bar hoping to give off an edgy vibe.
