"Hey Soul Sister" invokes something primal tucked far beneath the folds of my civilized soul. I scream. I throw a succulent. I tear a friend's eye from the socket. I am crying while I slaughter my loved ones. Why, oh why, did they put "Hey Soul Sister" on their playlist?

"Hey, Soul Sister" is an abysmal trainwreck, as is the rest of this record.

This is the kind of shit that plays at the dental office on somewhat of a low volume from a bluetooth speaker in the corner

Let me be one of the thousands and thousands of people to go on record to say that "Hey Soul Sister" is one of the most annoying tunes to have ever entered in one ear and out the other. There are songs like "Who Let the Dogs Out?" and "Teenage Dirtbag" which manage to become entertainingly obnoxious in due time (or not), and then there's songs like the aforementioned Train single that have zero-to-barely-any redeeming qualities. Speaking of Train, the band's 2009 LP Save Me San Francisco is essentially a dull experience from start to finish. It's cheap from a songwriting standpoint, offers incredibly bland musicianship, and really doesn't justify more listens. The album isn't all bad, however; when this record is decent, I dare say it's quite passable (e.g. "Parachute," "Breakfast in Bed"). At the end of the day, unfortunately, a vast majority of Save Me San Francisco's cons outweigh the relatively fewer pros.

I agree with the reviewer that Train seems to be capable of more than this. While I'm not a huge Train fan, I recognize what they're capable of. I have their first two albums (self-titled and Drops of Jupiter), which, while being nothing even remotely groundbreaking, are pretty solid. I decided to give this album a shot after hearing those two. I found that I liked this album more the first time than with future listens- its lasting appeal is zero. It's inoffensive, but with that comes virtually no character. I ended up removing this album from my iPod after a while.
