for any one that did rip on a new singer for thisong or any others well show us how it,s done since you re perfect thank you but i thought it sound good
Sorry, no Rodgers, not BC. And this is a pretty formulaic, safe, boring tune. Thumbs down from what we've expected from BC. This is like top 40 air play made to sell, selling to bore.
This singer is excellent. Bet he could do a killer John Waite impersonation too..."Here I am, I'm back on my feet again..."...."I ain't missin' you at all...." etc.
Rarely does a band sound this good after replacing an absolutely iconic lead singer with another who sounds NOTHING like him. Van Halen got away with it, that's about the only one springing to mind. Yes, Journey, Deep Purple, Foreigner, Styx,...they all got a guy who's a carbon copy of the original.
Damn, I forgot how many good songs they had back then. I just brushed up because Howe is openining up for Great White. I hope he got good Bad Co. money, because he deserves it. These are good songs.
rodgers created a great sound with bad co and even after he left the great tunes and amazing lyrics continued truly a great band, hands down!! thanks bad co. for all the great years of perfect rock tone and lyrics that moved us all
Only issue I have with the Howe era of Bad Company is they weren't quite as much their own thing as they were with Paul Rodgers. But they could sure as hell still rock!
@samboy1288 its almost like rock itself, across the board, wasnt quite the same. eg. starship, journey, van halen, scorpions. they all sort of veered down the format hit road. really "hooky" and "produced". still, for what it was, at that time in our lives, it worked REALLY well. i know I could totally relate to it. still can somehow!!!! trippy!!!
I play MW2 religiously, but I have to say this game looks like it could mop the floor with? it :O I just got fine cheat and mappack from SeeBFBC2New[dot]tk
Yea its unfortunate that when they dumped Brian in '92 he had to sue them for the rights to sing the songs live as a solo act. There has been pretty bad blood since then. Simon Kirke has been a total ass about the whole thing slinging mud at Brian since then. Bad Co doesnt even acknowledge that Brian was even a member and do not promote or perform any of Brians songs even tho Brian wrote their only #1 hit IF YOU NEEDED SOMEBODY. Brian has a new solo out called THE CIRCUS BAR. Check it out.
Hit it bigger????? These guys sold millions of records, filled stadiums, concert halls, theaters, where ever they could pack them , they'd be there to see them. :) Not to mention their musical influences on the entire music world.
@sherryberry65 No, it wasn't with this particular lineup with Howe as lead vocalist. They became majorly successful in the 70's with Paul Rodger's as lead until sometime in the 80's. I can't say for sure how big they were in terms of records and concert tickets sold with Rodgers vs Howe! However, I think they had more top hits with Rodgers, but IDK about that for sure! Someone can correct me if I'm wrong. Personally, I can think of more "big" hits with Rodgers, tho I liked both myself!
@JoviAngel60 the early band with rodgers out sold howes line up ,BUT,the howe era was so fresh and new they would have supassed the early works with rodgers no problem.I think rodgers overcame his ageing vocal problem to comeback because he knew he must after hearing how good this new sound was.HE kind of owes howe for the motivation provided to get him back on stage Nipped them in the bud.Kind of a shame really....I like them both.and really wanted to hear some more from the newer bad co.
Lets not even campare Rodgers to Howe! Rodgers is one of the best period! This is the Howe version Bad Co best effort. I think this is one of, if not the best song of that era. No smoke without a fire may be the best. Holy water is a good pop rock record! Howe is a good singer in his own right.
I enjoyed the Rodgers and Howe releases. Hands down the best Howe's Company album. I have such good summer memories that correspond with this album and song.
How's was the best? I never even hear any of these songs on the radio. Paul Rodgers was the best thing Bad Company ever had and when he left he was off making more hits!!!
Nah. What I meant was it was the best "Bad Company album with Howe in the vocalists chair". The Rodgers era 74-82 is definitive and the best hands down. Paul Rodgers is one of if not the best rock vocalist out there. I agree I rarely hear any of the Howe era stuff on the radio these days.
maybe some of you need to look prior to the Holy Water cd.....Bad Co has many, many huge songs that used to air all the time on the radio but evidently you weren't born then or listening to other kinds of music
YEP Mick Ralphs can rip off those licks as good as anyone in the biz, Simon Kirke certainly a solid hammerman and Brian Howe got Pipes , Im kinda surprised they never broke thru.... Kirke + Ralphs had a Knack for picking great vocalists ,That 3rd Lead Singer Hart? ,he was a badass too..
this and here comes trouble are both superb work, great rock and roll, enjoy; it still rocks!
