'Routine' is singer/songwriter Don Lennon’s fourth LP. I’ve always loved how Lennon cuts against pop culture’s grain. Like many performers, Lennon confesses details about his private life. But unlike many others who spill the beans, he’s not shrill or self indulgent about telling his story. In [the song] “Last Comic Standing,” he even sings about his reactions to a television memorial for the late John Ritter. This is just the sort of off-beat reference to expect from Lennon’s exceedingly creative blend of pop music and personal life. Lennon’s a clever, understated conversationalist who gives us a wry account of his likes and dislikes, obsessions and aversions. It helps that he has a great ear for a pop hook and a light but sure hand with a melody.
