Hmmm, I think Money Mark is definately a distinct matter of taste - i.e.
if you don't like him now you probably never will. He treads a very fine
line between the sublime and the cheesy (or the groovy and the annoying)
and I doubt anything would cause you to change your mind.

However, "Cry" and "Sometimes you gotta make it alone" are superbly
cheesy tracks that could almost have been produced by Frank Sinatra and
If you haven't heard them they could be worth a listen. Again though,
they are a definate matter of taste.
