For me, this record is inconceivable without the existence of Stephen Merritt & the Magnetic Fields. The indie purveyor of fractured classic pop tunes seems to have created the template for this ukulele playing singer. That's not to say that this isn't an enjoyable, amusing record. But at times it does feel like you're listening to some sort of Magnetic Fields outtakes, or perhaps the 73rd Love Song.
