Another killer track. Can’t wait for this album! Refreshing takes on UFO classics with some of
the greatest vocalists and musicians on the planet.
I wish they hadn’t.
Seriously some things are better left alone.
If these bands can’t come up with quality original material than they need to step down. I don’t like to be rude and rant but this is terrible. Joey Tempest does not sound good here especially. Leave these classics alone
I’m with you Jeff…..no one can sing it like Moog….leave it alone
I totally understand Jeff. It does get old when bands keep rehashing old material or re-releasing anniversary editions every 5 years (Kiss/Lamb of God today with Ashes 20th anniversary and they did a 15th too). The thing that bothers me the most are the bands who just can’t do it anymore but keep touring. Not sure what’s worse, that or people spending hundreds of dollars on tickets to enable them to keep doing subpar performances.
RPS,
I guess a counter point is the fact that when these bands do release quality original material nobody buys the album anyway. Then when they go out to tour everybody wants to only hear the classics. Maybe they redo these songs to spark interest and curiosity. I just remember being a kid and listening and getting goosebumps and quickening pulse. I can never say that now. And it ain’t age
Why…? Nothing can compare to the original
