トッド・ラングレン流マージー・ビートな最高曲「抱きしめたいぜ」＝「I JUST WANT TO TOUCH YOU」！THE BEATLES「PLEASE PLEASE ME」＆「I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND」〜THE WONDERS「THAT THING YOU DO!」までを繋ぐ名作！

TODD RUNDGRENが率いたバンド・プロジェクトUTOPIAが、プログレ路線からポップ路線に振り切れTHE BEATLESにオマージュを捧げた1980年作4TH。THE BEATLES「PLEASE PLEASE ME」＆「I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND」を咀嚼しつつTODD節も盛り込まれた「I JUST WANT TO TOUCH YOU」、「DAY TRIPPER」オマージュな「TAKE IT HOME」に、「CAN’T BUY ME LOVE」と「SHE’S A WOMAN」をネタにした「CRYSTAL BALL」、モロに「STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER」な「EVERYBODY ELSE IS WRONG」など、THE BEATLES及びこの時代の音楽への偏愛が伝わる、先人達からの引用満載(前述曲以外にも無数あり)/ハッとする仕掛けが随所に散りばめられた作りには感動を憶えます。モダンポップ〜パワーポップ好きにも大推薦。US ORIGINAL盤！
