Outstanding voice, one of the best rock vocalists of his generation. But despite that I really don't like his slow stuff much if at all.....the version of "Patience" he did is even more dreary than the original.
Haven't heard much of his heavier stuff because that is not really my style of music, but I have to agree about Cornel's acoustic efforts. I think they are terrible. His guitar playing and voice do not suit it. And fucked if I can understand the words when he sings. Reminds me of fingernails on a chalk board. Except Billie Jean, for some reason I don't mind that one.

The latest Soft Rock for Hard Times seems appropriate to post tonight.

Egypt Station by Paul McCartney
Christmas present which I finally got round to putting on the CD player today. First McCartney album I've listened to for years.
It's bloody brilliant. Seem to have been playing it all day - haven't done that with a record for what seems like decades. Hardly a duff track on it and 3 or 4 are way up there with the best he's written.
9/10

I haven't listened to the album, but that single he released a few months back Happy With You is tripe. Sounds like something my kid would write (aside from the stoned bit).
"I'm happy...with you
Got lots of good things to do
Oh yeah"Seriously, lots of good things to do???
But I'll give the rest a go on your recommendation!

As prompted by Roadhouse -
Been a while since we talked Tool. So I think it's time again.
I do like to be challenged by new music, so when this album came out, I did struggle with it. But as times gone on, i've warmed to it. However, for the below track, I've beyond warmed to it. It's certainly my favourite song of the moment and I expect will be in my top 10's list in the future.
When the drums really kick in around 8:45 is fucking epic. Would kill to hear that live.

Here are FOUR versions of the same great song.
You know what ? by far the best version in my opinion is by Eli Paperboy. I legitimately thought it was some sixties band not some dude five years younger than me. His version fucken kicks arse, I also enjoy Mobys one and pretty much can't stand the other two.

We had a BeeGee's concert on in the background a few days ago. Not really my thing, but as one does, I googled them to see what became of them. Never realised how man songs Barry Gibb wrote, including this one.

Many of such bands were undeniably seriously musical, even if one doesn't like their performing style.
That song was in my dreams last night.
