Nice! One of my faves — and I landed here from PSD today. Much prefer this to Elvis Costello....

This is the first cut by the BKs that I didn't think was just butt-kicking. This is tedious, plodding and tritely lyriced.

It's a traditional chord progression; and I think you are referring to "Don't Let Me Down" by The Beatles, not "Don't Bring Me Down" by E.L.O. |

I don't get the hype - although I guess I really haven't given them a fair chance - just doesn't appeal to me. I liked it the first time around when it was called The White Stripes  |

Today at Lollapalooza, Grant Park in downtown Chicago, Illinois:1st seems that copied the damn lights scene of another band that now is a bit "lost in itself."
2st: I do not like the drummer style.
3st do not like the scratchy sound of distorted guitars and too yellow lead-guitar, voice seems ok.
4st do not like the overall sound produced, is even worse live than in studio.
5st What at first may seem a sound energetic and attractive, it becomes tiresome after a while (like a garage band), and becomes a great nuisance.
6st seems that some members of the band are "dazzled" in themselves.
7st have in fact some interesting songs, but far from the fame that allegedly are assigned to them.
8st A band full of "automatic", a very basic way of playing, no place to recreate, improvise, far away from what I consider to be a virtuoso musicians.
9st I'm sorry to say this: but what happens is that many of the songs of this band is a dish you do not like to repeat.

IMHO, I disagree. It vaguely resembles "Don't Let Me Down," and only where the Keys sing, ". . .doesn't mean a thing to me." Otherwise, your assertion begins to fade between stanzas. . . |

I like the song, but that's because it sounds just like Don't Bring Me Down, and I love that song
