Description

Jonathan Sings! is the fourth album by American rock band Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers, and was released in 1983. Richman emerges as an incurable romantic on Jonathan Sings!, an infectiously sunny effort which stands among his finest LPs. Recorded after a long layoff with a new Modern Lovers lineup, Richman sounds thoroughly recharge, even extolling the simple virtues of This Kind of Music; among his other enthusiasms are kids; Not Yet Three and travel; Give Paris One More Chance, but his primary focus here is romance, Youre the One for Me, That Summer Feeling and Someone to Hold Me are positively joyous. NME ranked it at number 19 in their Albums of the Year list for 1984.
