1999 studio album by Randy Newman
Bad Love Randy Newman , released on June 1, 1999. It was Newman's first solo album since 1995's Randy Newman's Faust Academy Award nominations.
Background
[ edit ]
The album finds Newman bitter and satirical – as "biting as ever, yet unafraid to tackle personal and heartfelt concerns".[1] [citation needed , and "The World Isn’t Fair", which takes a look at the world through the eyes of Karl Marx . Another subject is aging – "Shame" takes a negative look at an "older man courting a younger woman" via the barbed lyrics and an exchange between the lead vocalist and the backing singer.『I’m Dead (But I Don't Know It)』is more self-referential in dealing with aging rock stars and commenting: "Everything I write sounds the same / Each record that I’m making / Is like a record that I’ve made / Just not as good".
"Every Time It Rains" was composed for Michael Jackson but he declined to record it,[2] [3]
Newman later said, "Before I started Bad Love , I wasn't exactly sure I could do a rock 'n' roll record at 65, or however old I was. But I was satisfied that it was a good record. Maybe my best record."[4]
This album was Newman's only release for DreamWorks Records .
Critical reception
[ edit ]
It received generally positive reviews from critics, placing 11th in the 1999 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll .[11]
AllMusic stated that the songs on Bad Love "should rest comfortably alongside his other four-star offerings."[1]
