Romantic progressive pop with layered piano and synthesizer atop outrageously pretentious lyrics about love and war. Those who can get past lines like "A post-war eunuch/A lover that is lame," there are some relaxed, smoky melodies here, especially the closer, "Summers of My Life." "Fly Into This Night" was a minor FM hit that lands a hefty keyboard punch courtesy of his brother, Joe Vanelli. Instrumentally, this is perhaps Vanelli's best effort. The lyrics are actually pretty funny, though that might not have been his intention. ~ Peter Kurtz, All Music Guide
