ReviewsRanked #1 in Cmj's "Top 20 Most-Played Albums of 1987in, "The Band's Most Perfectly Realised Lp....With Astute Songwriting and Aural Splendour...", #48 in Rolling Stone's "100 Greatest Albums of the 80s" Survey (November 1989), "SKYLARKING is the album that tied up everything great about Swindon's finest into one big beautiful package of perfect pop, saving their career in the process.", 5 stars out of 5 - "...A masterpiece....Todd Rundgren-produced SKYLARKING came out bright, beautiful - and sexy in a DH Lawrence style...", "SKYLARKING expresses a comic, cosmic apprehension of the natural world -- not the banal site of ready-made tranquility but the arena of psychedelia, godliness, and permanence.", "Thematically the band tackles major life issues like love, marriage and even religion with melodic and lyrical acuity."
Additional InformationXTC's most produced record to that time, and often listed as their best, features MTV-banned "Dear God."
XTC an amazing band who don't get the accolades that they deserve.
The best track on this album is "The Man who sailed around his soul" the lyrics are intriguing. It is surprising how many albums were done by XTC.
