"Lying, Crying and Dying" - By "KT" Despite the dire sounding subject matter, "Lying, Crying and Dying" is, for the most part, an upbeat collection of pop/rock story songs, about life, love, and death. With strong lyrics, good beats, and interesting vocal harmonies, "Lying, Crying and Dying," is one of the more interesting entries in the pop/rock category. One of the reasons the collection is successful, is that, the overall sound is more like that of a pop/rock band, rather than a singer/songwriter.
