I love your review of the album. Your reaction to Naked Love literally had me laughing out loud! I think honestly the only songs I'm not crazy about are the ones he's released as singles...Never Close our Eyes and Better Than I Know Myself just aren't catchy to me. *sigh* Literally any other song on the album would be 10000000x better. Underneath kills me every single time I hear it...it's like the Can't Let You Go of this album...raw, emotional, and tear-inducing.
I cannot comprehend Naked Love at all. I still don't like it, but I refuse to turn it off, and I sing and dance along every time. Infectious I tell ya!! xD I mean, like I said, I hated Moves Like Jagger when I first heard it, but now I love it. I promise it won't be long before i admit say that I love Naked Love LOL. Yet still, BTIKM is the worst track hahaha.
You're so spot on with Underneath. It's just so absolutely raw with emotion, just like Can't Let You Go, and I really hope this is something he wlll do live. I mean, Sleepwalker and Broken Open live always hit me really hard live because of the depths of emotion he pours into them. Can you imagine experiencing that with Underneath? Just, wow!!

Cross over to the dark side! Embrace it! LOL

OMG I think I might just die hearing Underneath sung live. I mean it's going to be a super difficult song to sing live because the vocals are so crazy out there, but if he can do for it what he did for Outlaws of Love, I'll be content. Kind of like you, I like OoL, but the live version is so much better and more meaningful than the album version. Everytime I heard Underneath though I kept thinking about hearing it live and knowing that I'll probably cry like a baby hearing it and my brain will explode. Because it is so vocally strenuous though it makes me wonder if he
( ... )
if he does Underneath even ~once, i'll be sated. once will be more than enough. but i wanna be there for it. xDDD
i'm glad you know where i'm coming from with OoL. i've seen a few other people say they didn't like the production of it, with the extra instruments and especially the drums. i think the first time the drums come in, they shouldn't have faded in and out the ay they did, it was a bit distracting. i hope he continues to perform OoL live with just him and the guitar. =D
acoustic Sleepwalker is just ~unbelievable. but even with the full band, it was like an audible punch to the emotions. he just GAVE it to you, whether you were ready or not. he just knows how to go there, full band or not. ugh he's so talented. i have to stop fangirling. xDDD
I know what you mean about wanting to be there. I can't wait to see him live singing these songs.
I think he knows where OoL works and where it doesn't. I have a feeling this will be a WWFM type thing where he realizes it goes over much better without the extra background music/production.
KEEP FANGIRLING! It's something we all have to unite and suffer together over. :)
That's another thing i love about him (fangirling lmao): he knows music well enough to know how it works live, and make it work even better. I never got sick of hearing WWFM because of how many different ways he interpreted it. He was always trying something new with that song, probably because of how many times he had to perform it, to keep it from getting old. got to the point where even hearing the original was just as good, because he'd left so many different impressions on it. ^_^
oh trust, i have ranted about people overlooking his musical talent so many times, i've turned blue. LOL. hopefully, since he wrote almost everything on this album, people won't be able to overlook it anymore.
i think with his first single being slow, and second being up tempo, it could go either way with his third single. he'd have to think about having to sing it all the time. i think if he ever did do a video for Underneath, it might be near the end of the album promotions. which would be a long time from now.
i remember when Sleepwalker was released as a single, the least they could have done was release his live video from Glam Nation Live as a video, but they didn't even do that. fail on the PR's part, i think.
i don't even know what song i'd want most as a video. Maybe Shady cause that would be more along the lines of the FYE video, i can definitely see it being a dark video, literally! xD then again.... i mean aside from Underneath, Broken English would be good too. in my mind that would be a really simple video, but that would require him to have a love interest in it for it to be right. soft lighting, lots of affectionate touching. xD
