Quote from: davepeck;133514
awful lyrics, and i *really* wish the band could get away from singing exactly what they\'re playing..

decent music.. too busy at times though.. and there\'s a point where the song should definitely be over, but comes back for more..

i\'m not sold.


Obviously, this quote was made at a time when Tunage had only been played twice (neither of which made its way into circulation). Is it time to edit your quote yet?

it was also written and first performed as a three-piece. the song works MUCH better as a four-piece.

musically, it\'s one of the best songs they\'ve written in recent history. lyrically, it still blows. :P

Dave you have got to be kidding. The lyrics to this song kick some major ass. The problem lies in how they are delivered. In this I totally agree with you if this is what you mean.
The descriptions in this song are so spot on for fools like me that just want to get down and Tunage is pretty much our entire life.

I agree with the lyrics being spot on. Tunage literally played over and over in my head when I flew out for FF9. I think its meaning should be celebrated. Actually it is celebrated every single show. That\'s the point.

As far as the delivery, I totally disagree with you guys. There are a lot of songs where the vocals mirror the instrumental melodies and it sucks, sounds corny a lot of times. But this song is an instance where it works extremely well. Something else vocally on top would take away from the perfect groove. And Ronnie\'s "Tuu-naa-aage" ties the whole groove together. I love all three different vocal sections. Tunage is the shit, straight through and through.

all the corny, played out, vocal jams are really ruining this song for me.

the sickest type 2 off the hook jams used to come out of this song and now it\'s consistently 5 minutes of vocal wanking, a solo or little instrumental, and good night :thumbsdow

the non-jam parts still rocks but I don\'t get excited for it like I used to when they bust into it

The song is all about partying and raging and what not so wussing out on the jam everytime is really untrue to the nature of tunage

bring back the monster tunages we used to know please!

agree\'d onehundge%!
I have been saying this for a while now.
Vocal jam = the lameness.
It is such a dooze to throw a vocal jam right in the middle of one of their best songs. Esp every fucking time. It really taints the tunage.
Wasted potential for ser jamming :sadban:
