The Stone Roses

[Scott_M]

Hmm. I'm not blown away. Unless it grows on me, I'll be planning a piss break when they play that at the Ethiad.

[Frankenhooker]

For anybody, like me, who hasn't heard it yet and, like me, was expecting there to be a link to it in here already, but, like me, your disgusted at the lazy cunts who've posted above not bothered to link it, here it is:

 

Mendoza posted it nine or ten hours ago.

Don't let my sleep deprived bleary eyes detract from my moan!

 

Which I now retract. Apologies one & all.

What about the cunts too lazy to go back one page and find it posted there? What about them, eh? I'll gracefully accept your apology because I'm a great person.

 

I like it. Not the best song they've ever done but it was never going to be was it? I'm looking forward to hearing it live.

I know, I know! My daughter has been up all night and I missed it.

 

It's growing on me a bit but it's not great. The lyrics are what I'd expect a high school band to come up with.

All for one, and one for all?

 

I feel a new Stretford End banner coming on...

As someone with a 3 month old daughter I'll accept that as a valid excuse.

 

Normally I don't get hung up on lyrics, but they could have done better there no question. I still like it though.

[Carvalho Diablo]

Merely OK, total filler, as a comeback after 20 years single, it does not auger well.

 

Perhaps they're keeping their powder dry ? Perhaps there is no more powder and they're now as dry as a nun's chuff ?

 

Drown the vocals in an ocean of reverb and hope nobody notices that Browny is an horrendous singer ? Good luck with that.

[Bjornebye]

His voice sounded brilliant at Heaton Park.

Anyone remember that old quote (Melody Maker, I think it was): "Best guitarist in the world, best bassist, best drummer...and Ian Brown on vocals"?

[Total Longo]

Was underwhelmed on first listen, listened to it a few more times now and i think it's alright. Not earth shatteringly brilliant, but they were never going to do that were they? People expecting an absolute recreation of something that was made in 1989 are fooling themselves.

 

I think they've played it a bit safe, understandably, with their first bit of music in 21 years. Hopefully an album will follow.

I just wanted something that didn't make me cringe! 

 

I've just seen that the physical release (7" or CD) doesn't have any b-sides, so I'm wondering how much they have actually recorded.

[Pureblood]

Woke up and still hate it.

Not even the tried and trusted "instrumental version"?

[cloggypop]

Can't believe there isn't a backwards version on the B side. Fucking sellouts.

Where are you seeing this? I can't see anything on Amazon.

 

I'd like to hear it through my stereo because this digital shit sounds fucking awful & I'd like to check if Mani is actually on the track.

If you want you can pay £10.49 for three different ways of listening to one song.

[Scott_M]

The verse is miles better than the chorus.

[Stu Monty]

Sounds like the best band this country have produced since The Beatles? Well they will be made up with that shout.

Not even the best band Manchester has produced.

[Total Longo]

Not even the best band Manchester has produced.

 

Stig is talking about Oasis there isn't he? Probably not even the best band Burnage has produced.

 

The Smiths, Joy Division/New Order, The Stone Roses, even James are all miles better than Oasis.

[Dr Nowt]

The Status Quo years.

[cloggypop]

Not even the best band Manchester has produced.

They're not in the top 5 Manchester bands. Might make top 10.

[Red_or_Dead]

Ian Brown - at best a tuneless knob.

[Tourt]

All for one, and one for all?

 

I feel a new Stretford End banner coming on...

A naff theme tune for the Three Musketeers, worthy only of Eurovision and the Stretford End.

 

Complete and utter shite.

[Captain Turdseye]

I take it nobody can be arsed posting a link to the song then? Fucking hell, if you want something doing, do it yourself.
