Senso is the debut studio album by Australian singer-songwriter Stephen Cummings, released in 1984. The album spawned the singles "We All Make Mistakes", "Stuck on Love", "Backstabbers", "Gymnasium", and "Another Kick in the Head". It peaked at number 46 on the Australian Kent Music Report.[1] The album was re-released on CD in 1992. In 2007, the album was re-reissued with This Wonderful Life.
Toby Crewel from Rolling Stone Australia gave the album 4 1/2 out of 5, saying "Senso is superficially a collection of romance songs slanted towards the slower numbers. However with repeated listenings it becomes much more than that – it's one of those rare records which reveals new depths and new delights with each spin." adding "Lyrically the songs move from melancholic rapture to ecstatic reverie with paranoia, viciousness and quiet determination in there somewhere as well. Cummings delivers them with more confidence than he showed on The Sports records and he seems especially comfortable with the strong female harmonies and duets. His phrasing has never been better, his voice is more mature and his control more supple. He still loves to twist words out of shape and squeeze nuance from his vocal melody but he rarely mangles the lyric as has happened in the past."[2]
