Saint Sway as a devoted/hardcore Stones freak, I am desperate to hear the new "Streets of Love" single.

but...

as I read the APPALLING reviews of the song on this board, I am actually frightened to listen to it

so I ask you....

am I better off to give in to my Stones freak urge and listen to the song?

OR... - is this song so utterly Mick-solo/sappy-ballad/horriffic/weak-ass/poppy crap that I am better off avoiding it at all costs??

please advice accordingly

thank you

If you ever want to have any respect for their legacy, skip it!!!! The most horrible song I have ever heard.

listen to it, and question everything you think you know.

then - listen to RJ - and forget all about it.

a horrible juxtaposition of krap and beaty.

corgi37 Dont listen to it.

pdog you have to listen to it and decide for yourself. Don't let others tell you what you should like or not like. It's great to get a gauge for the song. BUT!!! I'm also of the opinion that most of the people who say it sucks, were talking smack about the tour and saying this album sucked even before they heard it. SOL is ok. It's a typical Stones ballad, no more no less. Like I've posted a bunch already I want to hear it for real and not in Mp3. The sound quality is so poor that it's missing alot of the production quality, especially some cool guitar work that you can't hear well in this quality. RJ is a rocking tune, something I'm glad to have this teaser of, but it's just a teaser.
Decide for yourself. Like Chris Rock said, anyone who has their mind made up before hearing about something is a fool. When it comes to crime I'm a conservative. When it comes to prostitution I'm liberal. When it comes to The stones I'm a fan. Listen now, listen later and get the CD and then we can really hear how well they made this record. Which I'm thinking is going to sound pretty sweet on my stereo at home and in the car. These Mp3's aren't even worth decompressing to wav files and burning, they're pretty crappy Mp3 files. No one seems to take that into consideration, so that tells me alof of the haters don't know shit about good sound not to mention music. I trust Moonies opinion and I'm hoping to dose him and play the entire record for him soon.

listen to it - it is not that bad...

both tunes are better than "dont stop" (now i remember feeling like someone socked me in the gut when i firts heard it)...

now hopefully we wont be treated to streets of love each night this tour, but i would rather hear it than anybody seen my baby (with that horrid rap)...

and rough justice is pretty solid...

_____

and as an aside, if you want to hear mp3 artifacts, listen to the way the cymbals sound all washy and bell-like (ringing). that is why some of us are so against using mp3 or lossy formats - you can hear a difference. now i am not bitching, but rather pointing it out so those who are curious can hear i, because the artifacts are very pronounced on these mp3s...

big thanks to the nordic stones who posted the mp3s - i was thrilled to hear the new songs, and dont worrya bout the naysayers - many of them would bitch no matter what is released...

scratched You might as well listen to it Saint Sway, you're not gonna be able to avoid it forever!

Good point about the quality of the encoding though; you might be able to judge it better when you hear it on the album or (I can only hope) b-side.

Is there a way to avoid your posts? It's so obvious you hate The Stones. Are you going to go see them? I really hope you don't go to NYC, just knowing you're in the same building filled with such hate for them, I may need to call security to have you removed.

not really...

chuck has talent...

the talent might be overshadowed by the fact that he is loud and overbearing, but the man is talented nonetheless...

so unless you ARE referring to the turkey action, or the loud and overbearing part, i see no similarities...

Fucking the dead posts on a Friday... All insiders are now quiet...
When you fuck dead relatives do you cum on them or in them? Just wondering, since you brought it up!

y'know moonisup, i agree, but go back (now before jb edits/deletes everything). not only did jb START the antagonism on this thread, he is also the one, and the only one, who got nasty (talking about his own urges towards bestiality and necrophilia and incest). now watch him turn around and cry - "people are picking on me. nobody likes me. why am i attacked..?"

from where i sit - people pick on that guy alot LESS than they should (and much less than he deserves); very few like him because of his demeanor and behavior and attitude, and he is often attacked because he posts inflammatory sh*t, looking for the attention, which is why i dont take the bait very often, because it is what he wants...

carry on...

Moonisup I know, I know, you have got a point, but it's all so un interesting what he writes most of the time, that it's funny to see some guys reacting to it. That's why he does that!
