Album Reviews
But Life As We Know It replaces one used-up formula with another. Many of the numbers are about long-term relationships gone sour, with titles like "New Way to Love," "Variety Tonight" and "Tired of Gettin Nowhere." Most distressing are the Kelly-Steinberg contributions, especially the hyperactive "Over the Edge" (co-written with REO guitarist Gary Richrath), which sounds painfully like the title tune to Footloose. Kelly and Steinberg's work for Madonna and Cyndi Lauper seemed detailed and honest; their songs here are just plain embarrassing. If this is life as we know it, then perhaps ignorance is bliss.
