The Camera Never Lies is full on synth pop. The title track features a harmony vocal by Art Garfunkel, Face To Face is a nice upbeat opener, I had trouble convincing a dear freind of mine I Surrender is really a good song, just listen to it a couple times, it´ll grow on you. She never got it. Island Life was a video subject, it got some airplay on VH1. Now You´re In My Dreams was played on radio and Patti Austin is a great partner for Michael on this song, it really deserved more attention than it ultimately recieved. Lip Service is Michael at his wordplay best, Doctor Sax has a similar arrangement as Queen Of The Underground from the previous release Skin Dive, which was two years prior to this album´s release. Doctor Sax centers around a blistering sax solo, it tells a tale of a grease monkey by day, sax player at night. What is Michael if not fantasy? The final track, Innuendo, is a beautiful song featuring accoustic guitar, a departure from the rest of this album. Some believe this is a routine release, a floater album. Michael does sound very at ease here, but I feel this album, as with all Michael´s albums, are far from routine, it´s a great body of work.
