简介:  Another of the late-´90s singing and dancing vocal groups that combines youth-appeal good looks with formulaic, pop-centered, white-washed R&B, Boyzone at least appear more genuine and sincere than most of their contemporaries. But that doesn´t make Where We Belong, the Irish quintet´s first U.S. release (a compilation of sorts, of recent singles and prime album cuts), much more endearing. Like their crooning peers, Boyzone have a difficult time bringing heart to their brand of ´90s soul music; too often, they seem to be going through the boy band motions, even if they can sing rings around most of the others. And despite some good songs ? the Diane Warren-penned "I´ll Never Not Need You," "Picture of You," a misguided take on Tracy Chapman´s "Baby Can I Hold You," "All That I Need" ? Where We Belong doesn´t quite take it to the pleasure zone.
