Few pop acts—if any—have evolved so gracefully from teen pin-ups into mature chart nobility. And with Gary Barlow’s steady songwriting hand still firmly on the tiller, this triumphant eighth album finds Take That navigating middle age with a flourish. Its title track explores the full scope of the album’s ambition and personality—ambient sitars rolling into slinky electro-pop and INXS-worthy guitar licks—before the trio lay on their sky-scraping ballads (“It’s All for You”, “Come on Love”) and jaunty pop with eyes for the dance floor (“River”, “Don’t Give Up on Me”).
