Bye-bye darling is boring for the chorus. I'd must rather listen to Sending mail. Hell, I'd rather listen to the whole Love songs album over LOVE again. I remember when Love songs was announce, everyone thought it'd be ballads, but it wasn't all ballads. This is how Love songs would have sounded if that were the case. (well on the other hand, I hated Sending mail's hectic chorus at start too)
All in all, LOVE again is the watered down, less "masterpiece" version of Love songs...
I'll let the album sink in, but Love songs as whole is clearly the stronger contender here. I kinda felt like Love songs had great verses and builds but less exciting choruses at first. But never-the-less, this is my first impression of LOVE again. Wake me up and Missing are the only TRUE "masterpieces".
