Pretty much my thoughts exactly.Pure Method wrote:hokahey wrote:If they don't like Jane's, we probably don't have similar musical tastes. What would be the point? What if everyone hated it? What if all those same people love Backstreet Boys?Pure Method wrote:hokahey wrote:
I dunno. I feel weird being alone on this. It makes me wonder if to some extent there's not any willingness to like anything they do. I'm sure most are doing their best to be objective...
who says you are the one being objective?
try playing it for a friend who doesn't know/care much about Jane's, if you're searching for objectivity.
I think the better litmus test would be to play it for a casual Jane's fan. And I'm willing to bet they wouldn't strongly dislike it the way most here do, and the remaining reactions would be mixed.
A friend whose musical taste you trust?
If another COMPLETELY unrelated band made IF, there is no way I would like it. It's garbage to my ears. I like ETTL ok.

Re: Irresistible Force music video released
I like it, apart from a few too many fountaining lights. Love the song, and I didn't like EttL. Sounds like later a-ha. Some people might think I mean that badly but I don't. Bloody great group, a-ha. Sorry, I've been a member for a while but I've been scared. Holding it back, and so on.

Thanks. It's from Yahoo (I think). I was trying to find a name and everything came back with ' this name is in use' until I tried 'thisnameisinuse' . So now it's the first name I try.
Re: Irresistible Force music video released
I love the musical side (especially Dave's solo), hate the verses, and I'm ambivalent toward the chorus.
IF is a mixed bag for me, as is the video. There's some neat effects here and there.
But the song is short enough that it's worth enduring the weak verses to get to the solo and dig the cool instrumentation throughout.
