I’m not expecting anything. It’s rare for anything to live up to the hype these days. Musical releases just aren’t the event they once were (in my life anyway, not necessarily everyone else’s). I remember being underwhelmed by Love Spreads but equally realise how much it grew on me subsequently, as did the whole of The Second Coming over time. Indeed, I’d say now that Love Spreads is one of their finest tracks. So there you go, listen, like it, don’t like it, but don’t listen to self-proclaimed musos telling you how uninteresting it is…some of them even before they’ve heard it, they’re that sure.
Oh, and I’ll be in the Etihad in June, singing away to my heart’s content remembering times with less worries, when we didn’t really give a **** about important stuff, when “I Am The Resurrection” seemed like one of the greatest songs ever written (I realise it’s not, but it was of its time) and music could never get any better than this. I’ll probably text binners to check just how much of a haze he’s in too. 😀
