Roger´s new track: "Gangsters Are Running This World"

Like a lot of RT's solo stuff, this is what I imagine Richard The Hamster Hammond would sound like if he made music.

I love it and Roger sounds great!

From his forthcoming album.........

PS: I do lik this, thanks Vali

At first I thought this was an April Fool trick and was about to congratulate the topic starter for such a good job sampling different songs, but it's real! And, sadly, a poor effort by Roger. Terrible lyrics as usual, but it's all so monotonal. There's nothing to raise the song above the average, despite it reusing the percussion from Days of Our Lives and the piano from Journey's End.

Oh dear, love Roger, however it just sounds like a rejected track from “Happiness.”
Also the “video”? He’s a millionaire. It’s like a PowerPoint presentation. *face palm* could you imagine Freddie sacrificing such artistic quality?
That said, I love Brian’s New Horizons.

a statement.
not an unimpotant issue as you may see.
yes. sounds like a rejected track of "happiness?" (one of my favourite albums, btw.)
it seems like roger. sounds like him. welcome!
get it folks... there ain't no john lennon anymore.
roger's not one of HIS kind... but from time to time he seems to offer his thoughts about ... political things. in a very listenable way.
for me it's welcome.

song is ok, video is terrible, it's obviously a political song (most likely in relation to brexit).

You don't need to imagine, he did it.

I like most of Roger's songs, including this one, but it does sound as if he's writing the same song over and over again. Just needs that small bit of sheen to rise above mediocrity.

hahahahaha..poor rog..iisn't anybody out there...who wants to tell him that he curtain things better can't do? please protect this old man befor he completely gets nuts /// ..holly couldn't say it better

Roger Taylor has got into a similar situation as Roger Waters, recycling what worked before.... again.

I didn’t think it’s that bad. It’s nothing super special, but that shouldn’t be expected in my opinion, specially at this stage. But it’s a simple good song imo. The words chosen for the title and the main line are a bit so so for my taste. It could potentially be better just changing the lyrics for it a little bit, something less corny (although also super cliche and obvious) such as “it’s so hard to live in this World” would seem a bit better for my taste and fit the overall lyricis and theme of the song.

Hope this leads to an Album. Love it.

The song is nothing great to be honest...not sung well either, quite monotonal. But hopefully he has better offerings in his upcoming album. Also, video could be more imaginative
