FUNKNROLL

The Bridge on "Stare"

This song is funky, so simple, and yet sort of odd. The first time I heard the bridge ("while you and me walk into the past..... weeeyooooooo.......") the theatrics of that moment cracked me up. I sort of wondered if this was more demo than finished track. But I like it more with each listen.


What do you think?

It's very similiar to "We gets up", but with better production.

You mean the portion where it starts to fade out? I thought it was kind of like an absence of bridge... quite literally. Or what did you mean by the theatrics?

It does seem like a quickly produced song.

Sorryblatantselfpromotion - because its about to go ham.

I think OP is taking about the guitar line at end, guess its a bridge, but for me, Stare is more that irresistable bass running all through, it is bass in your face.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name

The part where the song faded out and came back in made me smile. I overlooked this song somehow the first time I heard HNR2 (don't know how!?!) but it quickly became one of my favorites off that album...especially "the bridge/non bridge!"
