hungry like the wolf: ugh!!!!!!!! can you say...overplayed? this is one song i would love to just see left behind in the past millennium. too bad i won't get to. it's like, you tell someone to name a duran duran song and they always say hungry like the wolf! they always play this song and then when it was put on a burger king commercial, that was the final straw. enough, people!! the chauffeur: i don't so much hate this song as i do the video. the song is okay, a little weird but okay. and i remember when i bought the duran duran video containing the chauffeur, i had never seen it before and was wondering to myself what the video would look like. i'd come up with a couple ideas that i thought were okay, and then i see it and i'm like... what?! i mean, what is up with these chicks dancing around in lingerie, and then this female security guard coming out and doing this weird dance topless? all she wants is: call me crazy, but i don't see why someone would want to hear an orgasm on a record. i just don't fancy hearing some girl moaning in the background of the song and hearing simon talking in a monotone british voice going "all she wants is" 20,000 times (you can figure out the title within three seconds of the song starting - not a good sign). followed by more moaning. and then there's the video...that's another story. burning the ground and decadance: could someone please explain...the reason for these songs? i don't mind mixes of multiple songs, but these are dumb. they'd be okay had they made 75% of the songs contain clips from the movie barbarella. liberty: i'm talking about the song here, but the album is bad too. this song, i dunno, it just bugs me. i don't see the point of this song. and i think that duran duran really could've done better. read my lips: see above. i wanna take you higher: i wanna take you higher again is a million times better than the original. it's just a stupid version, and it has this dumb girl singing in it. i mean what is the point of her being there? the end where they're going "go charlie" is funny, but i mean shouldn't covers stick to the original lyrics? it's a cover song after all, and i'm sure sly didn't have some chick going "oh yeah i'm down with that" (in fact i know he didn't.) so why did they feel the need to do it on here? michael you've got a lot to answer for: i always skip this track whenever i'm playing medazzaland. thank god i have the cd. i dunno, but simon has such a great voice, and he sounds so terrible on this song. his voice scratches a little, and it's just...ugh it's a dumb annoying song! |
