User Album Review
Despite its sporadic failings, Beautiful Life is proof that Astley – who writes and performs all 12 songs – was born to make music. The man certainly knows how to compose a tune with self-effacing flair. A family man with one daughter, he pours his personality into these tracks, his likability emanating from your earphones. His delivery at times evokes Elton John, an artist with whom he’s previously collaborated with and references on the album closer “The Good Old Days” – a nostalgia-laden highlight in which he describes the place of his birth as being “the music that my brothers and sisters played to me.”
It’s to Astley’s credit that he has re-established himself as more than just the singer of one of the cheesiest eighties pop tunes in existence. He’s taken another leap away from his heyday with a record seemingly carried by this idea, as opposed to a desire to commit to anything too glaringly audacious. In this way, Astley seems to ensure the good old days may still be ahead of him.
