Zeppelin Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) I honestly haven't listened to Endless Wire since it came out in 2006. Maybe I'll listen to it again. Edited December 16, 2014 by Zeppelin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I have mixed feelings for Endless Wire. I didn't feel like I was listening to a real band. Roger, Pete and a bunch of session players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunsfanoldie Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 did you like 1989?No, no I did not. And actually, I don't think I'm as biased of a listener as it may seem. I really did give it an honest chance. The reason I listened to it was after hearing Shake It Off so many times in bars and on the radio I was like "this isn't 'horrible'". Then I heard the song Blank Space and I have to say those two were guilty pleasures. I thought they were fine pop songs. Heard the rest of the album because of the glowing reviews and couldn't find a single other song I remotely enjoyed. I guess its supposed to sound like everything else on radio these days because its her first "pop" album, but any originality she had seemed completely lost here. All the songs sounded manufactured and like anything I would hear on radio today that I would turn off.I stand by the honest listen though. Thought the album sucked even though those other two songs aren't bad. I respect that she has talent, but the album did absolutely nothing for me. Have you heard it?

Have you heard it?Yes I have...I put it on my year end top 50 album list (I'm a list whore, btw)I've always liked her thoughIn between listening to my heathen black metal, I must have listened to Blank Space 500 times this past month! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsfanoldie Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Hey, its a good song! It really got stuck in my head, and a few of her past songs have been like that for me. She's always been fine for me, but I've kind of hated the "little girl" type of thing she's played into, either intentionally or unintentionally. Its hard for me to take you seriously with a song like We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.But again, I give her credit. She seems like a fine artist, she writes her own songs, she seems to be level-headed. I've got no problems with her. I wish more songs on the album DID jump out at me like Blank Space but unfortunately they didn't. I'll stick with Billy Joel and Black Sabbath .

As for Elton, it was completely coincidental that the person I was with the other day had these rare soundboards that I've never heard. So even though it seems like I made this big gay piano sandwich last week, it really was just coincidental that I heard Elton all afternoon and then started getting prepared for Billy in those next few days.As for what I've been listening to since that last post, its basically just been the rest of Billy Joel's catalogue:Songs In The AtticStorm Front52nd StreetRiver Of DreamsStreetlife SerenaderPiano ManThe StrangerThe Nylon CurtainThe BridgeAn Innocent ManAnd wrapped it all up with 12 Gardens Live. Now that Billy's been exhausted, it'll be Mad Dogs And Englishmen for Joe tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
