Jonathan Richman - Not So Much To Be Loved As To Love

Review by Jerald Nuness

Jonathan Richman's 2004 album Not So Much To Be Loved As To Love is a testament to the singer-songwriter's enduring appeal. The album is a collection of songs that showcase Richman's knack for crafting catchy melodies and his unique lyrical sensibility.

The album's opening track, "Her Mystery Not of High Heels and Eye Shadow," sets the tone for the rest of the record with its simple, yet evocative lyrics and Richman's trademark acoustic guitar strumming. "My Affected Accent" and "I Was Dancing in the Lesbian Bar" are two of the album's standout tracks, with their upbeat rhythms and playful lyrics.

Richman's songs often deal with themes of love and relationships, but his approach is refreshingly honest and unpretentious. He doesn't shy away from the complexities of human emotions, but he also doesn't take himself too seriously.
