I thought it might be interesting to capture initial fan impressions of the songs on Originals, so I thought I'd start a poll in which we rate each song out of 10. I'll make a running average available via this Google sheet.

And go!

Just saying, Jungle Love (and The Bird) are Jesse's songs

Come now, we've heard what Jesse wrote for Jungle Love and it's a groove, not a song. He should be co-credited with composing alright but a Jesse Johnson solo composition it is not.

it's close to his version, but i always thought it was cut from the cloth of "cool". Still a great tune though.

You're My Love is a classic song. Clean those ears out peeps.

Holy Rock bites.

i just got my copy, it's still all growing on me, some of them I really, really love and just have my mind boggled all over again at the sheer productivity of this man. It really makes me think of how Prince said he didn't give WB the best stuff from the PR era, when you hear these kinds of tracks, it rings true.
