Through a Child's Ears

The joy of one's most impressionable years lie in the very fact that they are, well, impressionable. Because one doesn't know better, everything appears new and exciting. Even A Simple Plan is impressive enough to compel the following opinion:

"This new album gives you a taste of real pop/rock music. Every song is written
by these five talented friends and they too, play their instruments very well -
good enough to tour Europe and America."

The above is an extract from a column in The Sunday Times which is set aside for pubescent 'uns to rave about their favourite books and CDs. I'm not even going to begin to say what is wrong with it. But in revealing a youthful naivete, it is charming nonetheless.
