Onetime working-class dog Rick Springfield has kept his nose to the grindstone since his early-80s "Jessie's Girl"/"General Hospital"/Tiger Beat-centerfold heyday. It seems as though he's realized he's making as big of a dent in the national consciousness as former co-stars Luke and Laura. Thus <I>The Day After Yesterday,</I> a disc of covers that, despite Springfield's raspy best efforts, communicates a certain last-ditch desperation. "I wanted to see if it would be easier and less painful doing a CD of songs I hadn't written ... and it was," Springfield writes in the album's liner notes. The trouble is, that ease devolved audibly into disillusionment: his song choices couldn't be less interesting and his delivery lacks soul, if not grit. Longtime fans, however, may want to soldier on. Springfield's reading of Foreigner's "Waiting for a Girl Like You" may be snoozy, but the original wasn't exactly a thrill ride either. The same goes for Human League's pleasantly humdrum "Human." In a split second of boldness, Springfield closes the disc with a palatable, clear-eyed cover of "Imagine." It's a song about possibilities, and mixed with a healthy shot of inspiration, its message should serve the artist better next go-round. <I>--Tammy La Gorce</I>

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Love to listen to it.......2007-03-13

This is so different than any other Rick Springfield cd. I loved the way he sounds.

5 out of 5 stars Rick shows he can do Sexy as well as Rock.......2007-03-02

Give this guy a break, he hasn't gone soft or easy listening. This albumn is a just what a woman needs to chill.
Turn down the lights, open a bottle of wine/beer put on this CD and grab the one you love (that is if Rick has other plans for the evening)

This is definately one of his sexier compliations, he puts his own spin on each song and makes it special, I hope he does more like it. You can't get enough of his deep, sexy, voice.
Rick truly rocks

5 out of 5 stars Great Job!.......2006-07-30

Though I'm still waiting for a cd w/ all-Rick-penned songs, I really enjoy this cd. I like all of the covers. I especially like "I'm Not In Love," "Holding on to Yesterday," "Waiting for a Girl Like You," "Let's Go Out Tonight" & "Miss You Nights." But my fave from this cd is the only "new" song & the only one writen by Rick, "Cry."

Take care & God bless...

5 out of 5 stars Great Addition to my Rick Springfield collection.......2006-04-03

I am a huge Rick Springfield fan. So this CD is a really nice change for me. They are all songs that I already know. It is great to hear his renditions of these songs. It is also nice to know that these are some of his favorite songs as well. He ROCKS!
