Worst song for me is "Do it"

Just cant get the lyrics

CMcKiss · 11 Aug 2008, 21:17

Yeah agree - Do It - Cannot understand what the reasoning for this song could have been, the CHSIB album is great and I really like it, but Do It just seems to have been an after thought or something.

Wario · 11 Aug 2008, 22:00

I belive Meat always has to have a "Rocker" like he said in an interview about Lemon with Bat 2. He's done that since Bat 2 with every album (WTTN's was Redlight and Bat 3's was Brake It). Do It is CHSIB's.

Based on the songs I skip when listening to an album then i'm sorry to say that Future from Bat III would be on the list

I adore this song and Meat's voice is wonderful on it, but it's ruined as soon as the female vocals come in, completely ruined the song for me

I really like TFAWIUTB, but i love Jennifers voice, hubby is not keen on this track for the reasons you said Luce.

LucyK! · 13 Aug 2008, 15:09

I was gutted when I heard it, it starts so perfectly then just goes totally downhill for me

I honestly think the best version of TFAWIUTB is the Wuthering Heights version (someone correct me if that's not the one I'm thinking of!)

I agree, when Ms Hudson starts singing it rather sounds like she's sitting on the toilet than singing a sad ballad ...

That said I'm not a fan of the overall song either, I much prefer the Pan Box version, already because of the amazing, epic intro.
Meat's version to me sounds, like most of the Bat3/Steinman stuff, like a cheap, mainstream rip-off of the original version.

**allrevvedup** · 13 Aug 2008, 18:18

yeah I kinda get to the end of bat 3 and have no real inclination to listen to the versions of cry to heaven and the future...i meat's version is probably ten years too late

That's hilarious. Now whenever I hear that song I'll always have that image in my head.

I really like the song but I'm not a fan of the duet with JH either.

I agree but with this said...Jennifer Hudson does have an amazing voice which is actually not even recognizable in this duet...I don't know what went wrong there...to me it seems like production or something...

What puts the icing on the cake is they omit stuff from the originals (Like in IACBTMN a couple verses are cut) and I never heard PB's version of Future but I bet its longer.....

I think part of the problem is that The Future and IACBTMN are better as solo songs and not duets. WAL was written to be a duet and it works well. Plus Patti and Meat not only have chemistry on stage but their vocals have a good chemistry. Their voices blend together into one powerful voice. Marion's and Jennifer's voices didn't blend well with Meat's, imo.

I might be out of my mind...which possibly is the case...but I somehow remember that Future was sung by Dream Engine as a group too...if somebody can correct me on this - please do...I am growing senile...I actually don't know if I've heard it as solo...

I think The Future actually is a group song but I don't like the duet it was made into...if you know what I mean...there are duets and then there are duets...

I know I will be quartered for this...but the more I've listened to WAL, the less I liked it...now if I listen to that album I just skip it completely...with this said...I do think that Patti's voice is very suitable for duets with Meat...

I've never heard The Future sung by the Dream Engine, but I think it would sound better as a group song than a duet. The solo versions I've heard are by Patti and also the Wuthering Heights version. Both were very good. I like the song WAL but I think it would have been an even better song performed live. Like I thought CHSIB was even greater performed live.

Blind before I Stop has some real great songs. Most all of the songs from Bat 3 really suck.

duke knooby · 21 Aug 2008, 01:41

future is one of the best songs on the album in my opinion

Bart · 21 Aug 2008, 09:48

I thougth this topic is about worst songs?

Well, I think Future together with Cry to heaven are the worst songs I have ever heard from the Loaf. They are terrible.

**RadioMaster** · 21 Aug 2008, 09:55

worse than special girl, man and a woman, never be too sure about the girl, etc, etc etc?
Okay, cry to heaven maybe

my point is, you might not think bat3 is great (me neither), but you still have to see it in perspective and dont damn every single song as the worst ever.

Bart · 21 Aug 2008, 10:06

I like special Girl. It is a nice song. The production is rather soft, but it is better by far than the production/arrangements on Future and Cry to heaven
