I'm glad they set a release date for the new album but what happened to the name The Original Time? "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

I get it--seven letters in "The Time"--but I still prefer the "Original Time" or "Tyme" or... Oh hell! I'm just glad to finally get some music in time! "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

Amazing that it's finally coming, but there is something seriously rotten in Denmark about this whole thing (inc. F-Deluxe). Prince is projecting like a MF all over these guys. | |

That's a good joke - 'The Band formerly known as the Time', sure they did that tongue in cheek. | |

Hey Freaker, you're eyes are so much better than mine, how old are u by the way, do you have brandnew lenses or a magnifying glass ... When I posted this, I checked only the people on the cover because I first believed it's a fake, then I listened to the snipped and realized it's for real! I didnt even notice 'The Band Formerly Known As The Time', that's too funny and I cant stop laughing when I think about P when he reads this ... Damn, these cats are clever! | |

^ brilliant isn't it? I admire them for that! I'm 30 but I do wear contacts lol.
I guess I looked closely as I couldn't quite believe they had to change their name! I mean it's crazy they have been made to do that by P! Honestly!! [Edited 9/14/11 5:45am] [Edited 9/14/11 5:46am] | |

I'm surprised they didn't paint "slave" on their faces... "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

Do they realize that reads "SevenVEN?"
Lame...

And with that 30 years of heartache and pain mercifully comes to an end as Prince has finally gotten his revenge on Mama Morris Day, life-giver to THE MASTER OF COOL, for checking in his beloved telecaster back in the day when Prince quit Grand Central to spend long nights in the recording studio talking dirty in Chris Moon's mic.
Seriously, I like OG7. The completist in me has misgivings about not being able to put their new album in alphabetical order alongside the previous in my record collection. But in the picture no matter where they go or what they do, everyone will know they are THE TIME, and the name change will not hamper their success in any significant way.
Oh and Trending sounds like it's got some new school flavor mixed with the old. I like it. [Edited 9/14/11 6:49am] [Edited 9/14/11 7:21am] | |

come on, show the guys some love and wish them nothing but good. I refuse to believe that with the talent they have that they would need to rely on some funk from Prince. Just like the Family are doing we need to see the MPLS greats to step out from the Purple shadow and stand on their own 2 feet. You telling me that Jesse could cover a track in Chicken grease funk guitar! You telling me that Jimmy and Terry couldn't write / produce stone cold clasics You telling me that Morris doesn't have the voice and charisma to front the project You telling me that the rest of the band couldn't deliver a great live show with NEW trax.
Come on, like a fine wine they will be worth the wait.
Good luck guys!.

I wish them good.
That doesn't mean I can't wish they'd come up with a non-stupid name. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

Good point....but if they just used '7' they'd have Prince onto them again for stealing a song title!! | |

So do something stupid instead? We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

What the fuck? lol. Well, I curious about it. I hope its gonna be good, name change isn't a good move, IMO. | |

Well, sometimes the Jackson Five was written as Jackson 5ive or Jackson 5. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

That was stupid, too. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

My exact thought/reaction/repulsion.
As I said on the other thread, I sure don't like that name...
"All 7" would've been better. Or "Original 7", "Original Seven", "The What", "Lifetime", "The Tempo", "The Watch", etc...
OH. Genesia... My Blacks match today. Perfectly. "He's a musician's musician..." | |

Smart to use a logo as a clock with 7 as the dials
A symbol for a name. Where did they pick that up [Edited 9/14/11 11:17am] | |

Not as lame as having to CHANGE their name! you try coming up with an original name. Seriously. Those who dislike it...come up with one and then go search for it's availability. Then perhaps you wouldn'r gripe so much about it. Ain't as easy as you'd think. Point is they should not have HAD to. [Edited 9/14/11 11:19am] | |
