| surfergirlsc | Posted: Aug 24, 2010 - 13:12 Akkk! This song doesn't even make melodic sense. Gotta hit mute and it's the first RP song of the day for me.  |

| peter_james_bond (The Burg) | Posted: Jan 20, 2010 - 16:23 From AMG "....everything on the record was written, produced, and most importantly, performed by Rjd2 in his home studio." Impressive! |

| ColdBear (France) | Posted: Feb 07, 2009 - 10:52 Saturated recording. Very unpleasant |

| Imkirok (The Arctic Hinter Land) | Posted: Aug 19, 2008 - 13:10 Started out having potential. Then the vocals kicked in and the standard electro-pop sound took over. No thanks. |

Steven Stills. At least, that's who I'm reminded of. |

| DrLex (Belgium) | Posted: Jun 17, 2008 - 08:43 Imagine it would have been R2D2 who made this song. Only the bleep sounds would remain I think...  |

| lathyris (Houston, TX) | Posted: Feb 20, 2008 - 04:48 5 -> 6. Was tempted to go all the way to 7, but I feel like I should be more conservative in my score raises. Maybe next time. . . |
| strange_brew00 (houston, tx) | Posted: Feb 04, 2008 - 15:55 given the genetic advances that the past few years have seen, i predict that soon i will have a clone and be able to give this piece four thumbs down. in the meantime, i guess two will suffice. i'm no television dog psychic, but i think my dog disapproves as well. |

I'm a straight ahead rock guy, but there is some really interesting stuff going on here. Lots of genres all thrown together without sounding derivative at all. Held together very tight...
I'm sitting here thinking I'm listening to a band on the brink of something big... and y'all think I'm crazy.  Reminds me of Pinback. The myriad folks that dismiss it are missing something and I wonder why. |

Good to see I'm not the only one. I was gonna say that I could believe this was one of those boy bands, like Boys to Men (isn't that another one or was I thinking of Backstreet Boys?) or Take That. Sounds so pop-y in that way. Usually I like the RJD2 stuff I hear on RP, but not this one. |
| Chumbawamba-1984 | Posted: Dec 30, 2007 - 16:36 That's nice as listening to RP also can prevent from purchasing crap. |
| Welly (Between the rainforest and the ocean) | Posted: Dec 13, 2007 - 12:00 I like this track. |
| earthbased (Milwaukee, WI USA) | Posted: Dec 13, 2007 - 11:59 Thought it was new XTC... |
| zaknafein (Kansas City, MO) | Posted: Dec 13, 2007 - 11:58 Rjd2's previous works have been almost universally interesting and innovative IMO, but I can find very little redeeming about this whole record. It was one I was really looking forward to, but probably will be my biggest disappointment this year. |
| kindermanltd (American, man.) | Posted: Dec 13, 2007 - 11:58 I would give it a negative rating if it were possible as well. This sounds like disposable MTV-Backstreet Boy-BS. Mario Bro. song is better than this. :puke: |
| calihack27 (District of Corruption) | Posted: Dec 11, 2007 - 14:11 RJD2's transformation from awesome DJ to run-of-the-mill pop singer has been one of the most startling in recent years. This song, nay, the entire album is crap. I made the mistake of going to a show earlier in the year--despite my friend warning he went pop--and I tell you that I have never seen a more disappointed crowd after a concert. If I could rate this a negative # I would. Pathetic... |
