@Elcerritogooze he was the lead singer of a band called Stiltskin - who was made famous by a LEVI advert on tv, then lead singer of Genesis for a while, then successful solo career then back with Stiltskin now....amazing voice + lovely person : ) xx
I dont understand why people who say they hate this song keep coming back time and again to say that they hate it. If you really do youd think theyd want to avoid hearing the song at all costs...
What cracks me up is the amount of time the prog haters spend on this page trashing the song, band and singer. Music is subjective, end of discussion...
No matter what anyone says about the accents, vocal ranges or anything else about this song, it doesn't take away how much I enjoy listening to this song. That's why music works. It's a personal experience.
@ktuluflux excellent comment for the appreciation of some haunting ballads ever written, i can listen to this for life, hits the heart right where it matters
Why would you highlight how bad these lyrics are....I really want to know? Is that what you are doing...or are you making the point that they are a jumbled mess again about some doomed love.....boring!!!!!
yeah, but ray didn't write it, it's RPWL's song. i'd still like the tabs since i want to cover the song with my band. help me spread this wonderful music :)

I dont think so, his nodules are very evident by his raspy Bad Bonjovi impersonation, his range is limited, hes can not sing past a certain not, he sings in an American accent thats reminicent of the eighties....people like david coverdale, chris Cornell these people you can use the adjective 'amazing' when describing their voices, but not this two dime cover bands pub singer!!
i think you're a bit harsh on his voice. there are much worse singers around who are way more successful (like chris martin from coldplay who can't even strike a note). but i guess my perception in this song is also a bit affected by the relief that yogi lang (the actual singer from RPWL) isn't singing this song....
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I hear what you are saying and respect your view, although while I agree Chriss Martin aint the best singer he does write contemporary sounding songs that dont always revolve around him. Ray is a self obsessed individual and this is mirrored by his dated sound,songs, lyrics and mostly his voice. You really cannot compare an actively modern sounding band such as ColdPlay with this dated pub singer who has never acheived any musical merrit by himself!!
Ray Wilson does a tremendous job on the Genesis album Calling All Stations and I especially love the title track - Calling All Stations. However, I think R.P.W.L. reminds more of Coldplay (or the other way around - if you prefer) but Roses kicks the living daylight out of every Coldplay track - and don't get me wrong, I'm a Coldplay fan as well. But Roses.... oh man! =D

Comparing them to Coldplay is an insult, RPWL has much more talent in song writing.
I compare them more to Later days Pink Floyd

It's a shame you're not reading what I'm typing. I wrote "or the other way around", you never put that to context, did you?
Using the word "insult" might be a little harsh don't you think? Especially since taste is rather subjective.
