the song sounds extremely cheesey to me... it's so dramatic and morose. You might compare this to something like When I Lay My Hands On You, but you wouldn't really call WILMHOY morose, would you?

.

Josh has a tendency to try to make things "cool" in the cheesiest, most cliched ways. I can't stand Way Back Home because there are too many cliched elements to list. I like U Know, but Josh's most obvious contribution, which is Hannah's "Unh, Uhhuh" that plays throughout the song, is SO terrible.

Actually, that ain't Hannah....... http://www.vibe.com/2014/...interview/

.

oh, you're right! No idea how i missed that because i had listened to mila j's song when AOA came out, and the 'unh uhhuh' is clearly there. Though not as an irritating loop that plays through the entire song...

.

yeah my bad. I assumed it was extreme narcissim on josh's part, thinking he had pasted his wife's vocals all over an otherwise good song.

I like this song and like others think its a only part of a longer composition.

I'm not getting the the song's meaning, can someone break it down for me?


Also, that picture is quite suggestive, that's all I can say about that.Sexy.

Nope. Go ahead. Keep using it even though repetition contradicts it's definition and renders it meaningless... lol

I guess it could be argued that it's similar to the New York Times bestseller list. There can only be one BEST seller, yet they have a weekly list. biggrin

This one isn't doing it for me. I like the atmosphere and the guitar is HOT...but the song itself? There is nothing really there that makes it memorable.

It's really growing on me. The mid section on, from "She likes to Party Hard"... is wicked. Just needs to release the full version with an epic guitar/bass sonic orgasm at the end.

Love the guitar playing (that´s Prince, not Donna, right? ). Not really into the lyrics though. They are not bad, but also not that great...I think they are, like most of his lyrics these days, not as easy to relate to like his classic songs.

The vocal delivery is nice but I don´t like how he sings "scream" and "she likes to paaaarty haaard". That sounds a bit corny, but hey, I like it for what it is and don´t expect the perfect pop song from him anymore.

Musicwise it is a step in the right direction.

Lyricwise, not my cup of tea.

Well I don't feel the song anymore, some parts are nice but I don't think it's good enough. Somehow the guitar feels out of place and it only sounds good at the end, maybe because its a demo I feel this way. The lyrics? Don't wanna talk about it. smile

That´s the feeling I have with most of his current songs. They are "just ok", not really bad, not really great, but most of them have the potential of "Could have been great if........."

And that´s why he has the most critical fans. lol

It´s the little details that are still great, and it´s also some other little details that take away the greatness.

As far as I´m concerned, sometimes simplicity is the key....songs that the average Joe can relate to. His classic songs were highly personal stories but written in such a way that everybody could related to them (When You Were Mine, When Doves Cry, Purple Rain, If I Was Your Girlfriend).

His current songs are still highly personal, but rather cryptic or to far removed from the average listeners day to day life experience.

ok wiseguy! when is the last time u heard prince play something totally unique on guitar?.....hes a santana,hendrix ripoff!!

If, as you say, he's a Santana/Hendrix ripoff, it's not a metter of age--if he's a ripoff now, he always was. Nothing radical has happened in which he lost some distinctiveness to his playing. Or was there some time when you think he did "play somethingtotally unique"?

I knew it! I guessed that's what you'd say--at least it part because it was the only thing I could come up with. biggrin

.

I don't buy that he's a ripoff, then or now--but most of what he's done has always shown his influences pretty clearly. At any point in his career, anyone who wanted to could say of his guitar, "He's 80% Santana and 5% Hendrix and 15% funny faces"--it wouldn't be accurate, but there'd be other people in the room to nod their heads and say, "Yep, uh-huh. You know that's right."

.

What I actually have a problem with is the idea that his guitar has fallen off... but hey, I know you feel that way.

Nice "GammaRay" cover. Can see right to the bones.
like your "New Album"...
2TheBones...

-----

It's very interesting what happened
2 Nights Ago
Was it a dream or was I dreaming the Show
Insides my heart Rumbling
Like an Amusement Ride, U Know...
Lights all blinking
Clouds Divine in Divide
a bit 2 Scared to even open my Eyes
Was it Ezekiel's Chariot
That just took me for a ride.
Didn't have the fear to
Scream what's goin on.
Had more like a heavenly healing
So, Babe I just had to write this song.
So, if you were the pilot
Creepin round to say, hey,
just hang on
Amen to the moment Amun to the sun
Only one Victor,
Co-Captain, I'm on.

With respect,
Arjuna Yeah, it happened 2 A "T".

I really did not believe a call out would happen and U SHOULD have seen that ship, WOW it was amazing.

So the guitar still suddenly cuts off at the end? That's a shame neutral

Yes, its exactly the same. As a lot of people said on here it sounds like it could/should go on for a bit longer

The "Party hi-i-igh" keeps on spinning in my head at intervals.

Without listening to the song.

Which is a good sign.

We want an album!
