In 1997, Sweet released Blue Sky on Mars, a new-wave album which featured the synth-laden singles "Where You Get Love" and "Come to California". The music video for the former featured Sweet as an astronaut traveling through outer space. In 1999, Sweet released In Reverse, a psychedelic album which featured Wall of Sound tracks, including the singles "What Matters" and "Trade Places". Sweet and his wife Lisa have resided in Omaha, Nebraska since 2013 Sweet is a member of the Canadian charity Artists Against Racism.

Critic Jim Farber of Entertainment Weekly gave the album a "B", writing that it "matched his usual sugary melodies to denser production, hinting at everything from the Beach Boys to '80s new wave", and adding that " power pop still has the knack". Club wrote that the album contained "nice, sugary three-minute pop singles that instantly.

Blue Sky on Mars – Blue Sky on Mars is the sixth album by alternative rock musician Matthew Sweet.

The album failed to make any impact, and A&M dropped Sweet as he was working on his third album in 1990. Over the next year, he earned money by touring as Lloyd Cole's guitarist while shopping a demo of his album to various labels, with little success. Eventually, the president of Zoo signed him upon overhearing the demo in an office. Following 100% Fun, Sweet parted ways with Lloyd and Quine, but retained O'Brien for 1997's Blue Sky on Mars. In Reverse followed in 1999, and the best-of collection Time Capsule arrived a year later. Hip-O released To Understand: The Early Recordings of Matthew Sweet in 2002, a collection that Sweet followed up with the Japanese-only release Kimi Ga Suki Raifu.

I have this record , but I think his sign is printed.because I compared a number of this record, but the sign was exactly the same.
Cetnan
Maybe you're right, and I want to see a different one.
Wetiwavas
My copy is a little different. Maybe he had a few different labels signed to break up the consistency in the signature
