This Wonderful Life

This Wonderful Life is the second studio album by Australian singer-songwriter Stephen Cummings.

The album was released in August 1986 and peaked at number 69 on the Australian Kent Music Report.

His fellow writers included Andrew Pendlebury from the Sports, Dean Richards from Whirlywirld and Ian Stephens from the Slaughtermen.

Cummings also wrote the publicity blurb for the album, which started, "It's a complete album, a solid listen, yet each song tells its own story, a burning, a yearning, like Carl Gustav Jung letting it all hang out, baby, at the Copacabana, like the Darker Side of Barry Manilow.

[1] Toby Creswell from Rolling Stone Australia said "There is a strength that runs through this album which saves the sentiment from becoming maudlin.
