The opener, "In the Heart of the City," is a prime example. Here DeVille's brilliant dramatic meld of Pomus' doo wop and R&B-inflected rock & roll romanticism and Bruce Springsteen's sense of urban drama pours forth from lyrics, melody, and DeVille's amazing vocal. But the overblown keyboards, compressed guitars, and drum machines blunt the song's considerable power. The same goes for "I Must Be Dreaming" with what sounds like a vocoder-processed backing chorus.
