The Lemonheads' third Atlantic album has its moments: "The Great Big NO," "Down About It" and "Dawn Can't Decide" don't break new ground (the dB's jangled better 12 years ago), but they're catchy, rollicking pop tunes.

The truth is, he's probably too narcissistic to care about another member of either sex. In "Paid to Smile," Dando protests that he shouldn't be treated special because he's a handsome rock star.
