Just received Gavin Rossdale's "comeback" disc, Wanderlust, with the cover bearing what else but his beautiful face. The inside was much less desirable than its outer shell. Quite honestly, I only listened to the whole album once, and the most notable song on it was, "This is Happiness" in which the chorus repeats -- duh-- "This is happiness, this is happiness." Gavin may be happy these days, (Which he very well should be with a beautiful, successful wife, adorable kid, jet-setting life, plus let's face it, he will always be a total babe) but nobody wants to fucking hear about it! Then again Gavin was always something of a soft-hearted hippie (See here for ref.) With all its embarrassing fuzzy, melodramatic mumbles and one highly vomit-inducing ballad released as the single (Love Remains the Same), Wanderlust is definitely a WONDERBUST!
Sorry Gav. I still loved you way back when. I even had a t-shirt purchased at Spencer Gifts that read, "I <3 Gavin!" in the 7th grade, and saw you play a double bill with my other 90's faves, Veruca Salt!
I'll still hold the good ol' days close...
