Hell, with the exception of Tanz, everything awesome that JIM has done involved Rory. Think about it. What's the last MAJOR hit by Jim or ML that has that Rory wasn't there for? "No Matter What" by Boyzone?
The fact is that a few people on this forum don't think that ANYONE has passion except for ML. That is one of the most horrible things that you can say about a musician, ESPECIALLY a singer. I guess if you actually were a musician you would know that.
That's what some people don't get... Unless it's ML blowing chunks. THAN it doesn't matter because he's so passionate. And I agree, that it doesn't always matter, but give other artists the same courtesy.
IMO BFG versions of LITD, RARDCT and 'Surf's Up' can't be touched because they're already perfect. That's just me.

How is it offensive? Its just an opinion. Rory Dodd isn't a lead singer in my eyes he hasn't got "it". THis track, imo shows this.
I don't think anyone but Meat cans ing stein man stuff. I love Bonnie, Pandoras Box, Tanz, Whistle DOwn The WInd, and I adore Rob Evan's version of Body.
Rory and Jim I just feel don't have the vocals to get these songs across by themselves.
BFG, knowing what happened behind the scenes, makes the atmosphere of the album very venomous.
