Better to be honest about what you think about it--it makes praise, when you (generic you, not you you) give it, all the more meaningful :)Poster Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07797812846936450135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30794625.post-1160793786395797672006-10-13T22:43:00.000-04:002006-10-13T22:43:00.000-04:00lmao! I already regret being negative, cause I hea...lmao! I already regret being negative, cause I heard the song like 5 times already..but I'm not sure I would have if it wasn't Anthony. Know what I mean?<BR/><BR/>And I hate to criticize further, I don't like they have him in tenor range, although it's not out of his range. Reminds me of Josh Groban on his second album..and I want to hear hit more low notes. Damn, I'm such a Debbie Downer tonight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30794625.post-1160785588033943692006-10-13T20:26:00.000-04:002006-10-13T20:26:00.000-04:00It's sad when you have to try to be overjoyed by a...It's sad when you have to <I>try</I> to be overjoyed by a song, isn't it? Let me know if that works, though :)<BR/><BR/>I think the Disney movie comparison is really, really apt--that's what it reminds me of, in everything right down to the orchestration. I hope that's not what ends up happening either! I'm hoping for a cycle like that of his first album, with "The Prayer" being followed by "Rain" and "Hurts So Bad," two songs which I really liked (even if I think Anthony's potential goes far beyond those songs). I'd feel better if I could hear some of the other songs on the album. He can sing so well, and in so many different styles, but I really fear him getting stuck in a rut of a certain type of song. I'm going to avoid spending another whole post defending Anthony, but at some point I really need to post some more of his fun songs...and I'm not saying he has to avoid ballads, either, just find the right sort of ballad.<BR/><BR/>That said, as I mentioned, I'm sure it'll grow on me (I've listened to it a lot already), and I'll totally regret being negative, but I think I'll still agree: I just don't know about it as a single. And he has <I>so</I> much potential (it peaks through in this song at points, too).Poster Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07797812846936450135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30794625.post-1160782467219178412006-10-13T19:34:00.000-04:002006-10-13T19:34:00.000-04:00Woah, it'd be ok for a ballad on a Disney movie so...Woah, it'd be ok for a ballad on a Disney movie soundtrack for a first single I dunno. <BR/><BR/>And I have the feeling there is a lot of tightening left to do with the melody, production, lyrics..darn, I wonder if Anthony will end up being the type of artists who never quite makes a record that matches his talent. I sure hope not!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30794625.post-1160774536199896872006-10-13T17:22:00.000-04:002006-10-13T17:22:00.000-04:00its always a bit disappointing when the picture is...its always a bit disappointing when the picture is better than the song. If i were a singer i would be cursed with that fate ;) I will listen again on the train to london tomorrow and try to be more overjoyed by it...Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07230065922155843285noreply@blogger.com
