pittrek No wonder the result is surprising to yourself, because some of your ratings are bizzare. Slightly Mad 1 ?? The pish poor Headlong 8 ?? The great, atmospheric Ride the Wild Wind 2, All God's People 0 ?? And most shockingly, the gorgeous, restrained Days of Our Lives - 1. You also put WIAWI on par with TSMGO, while the first one is just a very good deep cut, though not everyone may be convinced by the slightly overblown instrumental part, while the latter was an instant classic with some of the best music, vocals and lyrics they ever committed to tape.[/QUOTE]
Yep, Slightly Mad is incredibbly boring. Headlong a great rocker, one of the best songs on the album. Ride the Wild Wind - nope, nothing for me. All Gods's People - I skip it 99% of the time. Days of our Lives - an interesting thing with this song - I always hated the album version (and I still do), but I learned to love the LIVE versions sung by Roger and usually with a great emotional guitar work from Brian. Was it Al Worth It - love everything about the song, just like The Show Must Go On.

Ride the Wild Wind with Roger on lead works better

Yes, I know, but there is a big but. These songs do not warrant such harsh ratings, it's like giving 1 star to Paul Simon's "Graceland". You may not like it, all these African rhythms and shite, maybe not your cup of tea, but you can't deny it's still good music. Otherwise, you just come across as capricious, that's all.

Considering that I would give a lot of threads on here a 1, 2 is a good thing.
Just shows you how low my standards for this site have become

Could be 2 out of 10 at 10 being best or 2 after 1 at 1 being best. It’s interesting at how we all look at things differently. And the dynamics on this site proves that!! Lots of personalities!! LOL :)
