Child For A Day About The Record: Izitso proved to be Cat Stevens' comeback. The album updated the rhythmic folk-rock and pop-rock style of his earlier albums with the extensive use of synthesizers, and other electronic music instruments, giving the album a more electronic rock and synth-pop style. Izitso was a commercial success, reaching No. 7 on the Billboard Albums chart. Izitso also included his last top 40 hit (until three decades later), (Remember the Days of the) Old Schoolyard, an early synth-pop song that utilized a polyphonic synthesizer. Linda Lewis appears in the song's video, with Cat Stevens singing to her, as they portray former schoolmates, singing to each other on a schoolyard merry-go-round. Was Dog a Doughnut, which upon release was criticized for sounding "a bit too robot-like," has since been considered one of the first electro, or techno-pop, songs ever recorded, with elements later associated with hip hop music. The track made early use of a music sequencer along with synthesizers.
