Title Note

Japanese edition features the bonus track "Endless Summer Nights" (Live Version).

In the 1980s, Richard Marx embodied a successful brand of pop/rock that combined the gritty American Heartland sounds of Bob Seger and John Mellencamp with the smooth production style and heart-on-the-sleeve romanticism of the Barry Manilow/Leo Sayer set. Marx continued to work steadily into the early 2000s with other artists, finding prosperity as a songwriter and producer for N Sync, Josh Groban, and other chart-toppers. In 2003, he won a Grammy award for his co-authorship of the Luther Vandross hit "Dance with My Father."

Marx's MY OWN BEST ENEMY is a comeback album of sorts, and finds the multi-talented vocalist in as strong a form as ever. Straight-up AOR pop with a hint of twang, the record alternates between mid-tempo, groove-oriented songs ("Nothing Left to Say," "Again") and the majestic power ballads for which Marx is so well known ("Ready to Fly"). The disc is also a showcase for Marx's dark, slightly left-of-center lyrical bent, which often stands in subtle and effective contrast to the music's sunnier tone. A welcome return from an oft-underrated artist, MY OWN BEST ENEMY reveals Richard Marx as an unusually complex musician reaching the peak of his creative powers.
