The vocals were really poor at times and the new songs didn't exactly grab me. The "bad Springsteen" comment someone made above fits well. Jon only sounds in tune on the lower notes and when his vibrato clicks in, the rest of the notes (a lot of Richie's harmonies too) sound no more accurate than a football crowd.
The BBC red button filming shows quite a lot of nods and smiles between Jon & Richie and let's face it, every American sat in front of The One Show hosts look stunned trying to find some English in between the Welsh and Yorkshire being barked at them, in between snippets of snow in Cumbria and Giles Brandreth in a library somewhere.
