Hey thanks.

Don't think much of the song. Kind of a mediocre straightforward jam without too much interesting happening.

Thanks a lot,

i like it, classic "the Time" signature, but beat and bass have been updated, fresh & groovy !

this fake old school joint sounds very close to to musicology`s approach,

Sounds weak to me. Nothing much going on there and it drags like hell. It does say it's a demo though, needs a bit of spit n polish.

Chucky nailed it. Morris did not! I think his vocal arrangements are weak along with the lyrics. Too sparse. In my opinion, the music could have been complimented better if Morris had done more.

I just listened to it, and let me say:

Sounds just like I expected it to.

Maybe if Morris had Prince behind him still, but then again ..... neutral

This sounds just like Fishnet. Note to The Time: "Dont do this to yourselves." I've seen a couple of posts saying that the new album is part live hits and part new material. Theres no point in the new material sounding like second rate versions of older songs. This isnt looking too good, and I was actually hyped about the album.

Sounds very flat, Chuckii Booker's done his best 2 capture his heroes past glory, but only PRINCE or Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis can really produce THE TIME, and what about Jellybean and Monte? Have they forgotten how 2 'produce' tracks? Jellybean gave "Black Cat" 2 Janet and Monte wrote and produced Alexander O'Neal's finest ballad - "If U Were here Tonight", snap out of it boys!

Still looking 4ward 2 a new album.

Good 2 see them LIVE in ATL opening 4 PRINCE last month!

If you don't dig this song, leave this post and NEVER enter any post regarding the Time again. Because this is EXACTLY how we REAL Time fans want them to sound! Take that whinning about it's "Flat" or "Been there done that" bullshit someplace else. Of course it has an "old" Time sound. What the hell do you think it should sound like? The song is called "Old School" for god's sake. Now keeping in mind this says it's a demo but I could jam this shit as is and not even trip. Anyone that knows Chuckii's work can also hear his style all over this track. Sounds a little like "That's My Honey" from his debute album in 89. Thanks for sharing this. Can't wait to hear the finished version of this jam.

Hope this is just a demo. The song really is just sorta there. Yeah it sounds like The Time and that's not necessarilly a bad thing but Dansa's right. It has no ooomph.

Where is Jaime Starr when you need him?

yea guys no offense, i'm not a naysayer....but this isn't up to par...10 years ago, maybe..but this just isn't up to snuff, it sounds like an old mans take on what's hip today....the time was honestly a prince creation...all of the hits came from prince...this is like Vanity "getting the girls back together" and putting out a reunion album!...u see, i love the FUNK, i love the TIME, but i dont want this apart of their legacy...that my 2cents, spend it if ya wanna.

eek
Surely you're joking. Its pretty fuckin arrogant to try and berate someone because of their opinion. In my opinion, this shit sounds like a weak ass fishnet, and the fact that it seems to cause you so much discomfort only make me more inclined for repeated posts on how I feel about it. You obviously have confused the terms "old school" and "retread"|. This is more of th latter. Are you saying the REAL Time fans want to hear the same fucking songs over and over?

Damn...1st off, "That's my honey" sounds WAY better than the "Old School" demo but you have to remember here, There are TIME fanatics here and I'm sure if it were Prince, or the original cats on it, it would validate it a little more. There was a reason why this song hasn't leaked out before and I'm sure Morris OR Chuckii is dying a million deaths out there if they knew it was leaked. Chuck's a much better producer than that. which is why it said DEMO, HAHAHA. Bran, how did you get that anyway? it is way fonky to me but also sounds incomplete as well.
