I actually love this record. It is a very strong set of songs, among the band's most melodic. "Over You" was not released as a single, but I thought it was one of the more radio-friendly tunes in the pack. The band almost sounds like they are happy!

"Over You" by Echo & The Bunnymen
The band hated it, several critics hated it, and early fans of the band hated it. We're taking about the self-titled, fifth album by melancholy alt rockers Echo & The Bunnymen. Despite the haters, this 1987 album proved to be the band's biggest commercial success, peaking at #51 on the Billboard Top 200 and producing some of their most memorable songs, such as "The Game", "Lips Like Sugar", and "Bedbugs and Ballyhoo".
