After giving TCR a fair shot, there are definitley songs i like, and songs, imo, they should have kept on the shelf. I find i'm skipping the same songs now. My listening order goes somethin like
1. Cosmos Rocks
2.
3.
4. Small
5.
6. We Believe
7. Call Me
8.
9. Some Things That Glitter
10. C-Lebrity
11.
12. Say Its Not True
13.
14.
So 7 hits, 7 misses for me. Thats a better strike rate than a lot of new records i've listened to, so my verdict is that it's hardly the stuff of classic records, but definitely not as bad as some people make out.

After 6 weeks, I felt I had to take my copy back to the shop as well.
They refused to give me a new one, insisting that the reason it didn't play anymore is because I'd worn it out [img=/images/smiley/msn/teeth_smile.gif][/img]

I did one better; I took someone elses copy back to the shop.
No reason.

I took a copy of TCR back to the shop and robbed it instead. I held 34 people hostage and forced them to listen to TCR while I emptied the registers. 23 of those 34 people actually LIKED The Cosmos Rocks and agreed to purchase it as soon as I left. We shot up the Jonas Brothers section pretty good but made the manager clean up TCR display and mark them on sale.
I'm officially beating Clear's ass here.
I took Kid Rock back to his parents. Beat that, original poster.

Wow! I agree with that choice, only I would add Through The Night to the fav list. And I also agree that it`s much better than any new record released now.

I took TCR back to the shop and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.

Don't forget, if you are an proper Queen fan and still feel the need to buy the new stuff masquarading as Queen, you don't have to put up with crap.
I am proud to say that I was true to my inner voice and went back to ZAVVI in London and told them I wanted my money back. The Cosmos Rocks is total toilet. (I filled up a couple of holes in my Thin Lizzy collection instead).[/QUOTE]
well, i think you made a mistake. i'm not fan of paul rodgers also, but album is not bad at all, that you have to took it back to the shop. also, it shows that you don't respect Brian and Roger

I took TCR back to the shop because they forgot to put mayo on it.
Return of the QPR CD back to the shop is very brave and it truly required a lot of courage from (all of) you. And, of course, it was necessary to say the story of this heroic action to the whole world. Bravo!
Ah, it's Mr. Took the Box Set back to the shop

I don't see why Queen fans are so upset with the Cosmos Rocks. It's really a shame because it's a good album. I guess some Queen fans don't want to actually give it a fair chance. These Queen fans would be more like "Freddie fans" than "Queen fans."
Anyways, now that I'm saying this I might as well list my favorite songs off the album (in no order):
The Cosmos Rocks
Time To Shine
Small
Warboys
We Believe
Some Things That Glitter
C-lebrity
Say It's Not True
Still Burnin'
