A SONG FOR ALL SEASONS

With this album the band moved deeper to the realms of commercial oriented music, but there are still some very beautiful moments on it. "Opening Out" is a strong symphonic overture, and "Day of The Dreamer" has a faster, cheerful theme which deepens to a very mellow, romantic theme. Also the bit over ten minutes running title tune is a nice mini epic worth of mentioning. Still sometimes the cheerful and sweet elements start to go too far for my taste, but I recommend to listen this album if one has a change. Especially if you liked the band's previous albums or are fond of sweet fairytale music, this is worthy to check out.
