2753014, I hear you, fam... but ionno wassup with the off-keyness during the Posted by Ashley Ayers, Wed Oct-31-12 02:21 PM
verses. And the way he was singing the verses sounded like he was *trying* to sound wounded. Ionno b. Shit was weird. I have heard worse songs though. The melody picked up a bit during the bridge and chorus. This diminishes no jot or tittle from Stevie's legacy, but damn.

you, however, are desperately attempting to troll.
hence...my suspicion that you are bored. you usually pick your battles with more tact.

2753009, He doesn't sound well. The singing's not good. Posted by CRM, Wed Oct-31-12 01:58 PM
Song's a dud too :(
|
2753018, To be fair, I've always been iffy about his more "political" songs Posted by Ashley Ayers, Wed Oct-31-12 02:33 PM
outside of You Haven't Done Nothin'. I'm not even big on Happy Birthday, even though it's an anthem. Stevie's "social ills" songs have always sounded a bit heavy-handed and corny, to me. I'm not one to call people "preachy" for making songs that are actually *about* something, but Stevie comes across that way, for me personally, when he goes there. Seems like he's at his best when singing about.... well just about anything except politics.
|
2753173, Freal??? Even "Big Brother"? Posted by rtoriq, Thu Nov-01-12 01:22 AM
Cash in Your Face? Or Misrepresented People? (Bamboozled soundtrack). Or even Black Man? (Which is sort of similar to the above song i guess)
|
2753195, You know what Posted by Ashley Ayers, Thu Nov-01-12 06:42 AM
maybe I'm trippin', because I like all those songs lol. Only one I consider "political" though is Big Brother. The rest do fall under "social ills" joints, so probably chose the wrong phrase there.
This song simply reminds me of Happy Birthday, where he's pointedly making a song about specific figure. I skip Happy Birthday every single time I play Hotter Than July.
Funny thing about Misinterpreted People is that I find it heavy handed as hell, yet it's one of my favorite songs ever.

2753183, LOL, this does kind of sound Posted by Dr Claw, Thu Nov-01-12 04:24 AM
like some Middle Eastern take on "Don't Drive Drunk". I'm wondering what drove that decision to write the song like that. Is Stevie trolling?
I'm expecting to hear the beginning of the Muhammad Hassan song any second now.
but what is up with the way Stevie is singing? That's the only thing that's bothersome, IMO.
"Don't Drive Drunk" better though.

2753196, I'm tellin' you, man. He's sounding wounded on purpose. Posted by Ashley Ayers, Thu Nov-01-12 06:44 AM
>but what is up with the way Stevie is singing? That's the only >thing that's bothersome, IMO.
Like I was saying above, it picks up a bit at the bridge and chorus, but everybody's already turned off by then.

2756751, this shit and prince vikings fight song need to be in a time capsule Posted by Basaglia, Sat Nov-17-12 03:04 PM
because thousands and thousands and thousands of years from now when humanity has evolved to the attain near-perfect spiritual enlightenment and we're done with war and the manufacturing of trivialities to keep us separate and at odds, our descendents are going to need reminders of who we were and just how fuckin wack even THE BEST and most BRILLIANT among us could be...and if they're not careful, the entire species be that wack again.
now, i gotta go jerkoff to forget i ever heard that.
