Shy - Shy (2011)

Scandinavian AOR at its finest. Huge hooks everywhere you can imagine, complete with a friggin' orchestra backing up the main band. 'Only The Night' may be the single best power ballad I've ever laid ears upon.

Wilson's new one is out? I'm there. Also that Shy album sounds good, so as you turned me onto Work of Art and as they're Scandinavian, as are Houston, this sounds like a good idea.
