Я уже давно ничего особенного не жду от „Дримов“: ведь вокруг так много разнообразнейшей музыки, что мне действительно хочется „просто Dream Theater“ и ничего больше. Первые композиции не показались мне чем-то особенным, кроме безусловного мастерства музыкантов: просто типичный прог-металл-материал с некоторым налётом пауэра. До „Behind the Vail“ слушать альбом скучно. Однако меня порадовало, что материал отличается от предыдущего опуса группы яркой симфоничностью. И для меня этой большой плюс, потому что мне просто нравится классика.

Feels So Good is the second studio album by girl group Atomic Kitten and the first full original album featuring Jenny Frost. The style of the album is comparable with the first album and consists mainly of pop ballads, happy songs and one cover version. After releasing a cover version of "Eternal Flame" on the previous album, Susanna Hoffs from The Bangles was asked to write a track for the album called "Love Doesn't Have to Hurt". The girls teamed up with Rob Davis for the songwriting and production of several songs and as a result, Kylie Minogue with whom he frequently collaborated, donated the song "Feels So Good" to the album. Out of gratitude and because they feel it is a great title, the group decided to name the album after that song.
