.....explains why I'm an atheist.....yikes.....zero talent pal.....

I guess "Right Here, Right Now" was their only good song.... cause that was horrible..

and I'm usually not critical.....but that one sucks frumunda.....no groove and stereotypical how it has translated into the creative nature o'day.....

owl, you know I love ya and this thread......just had to say that one....

Hey it's all okay. None of us is perfect. Just grabbed a quick one in light of Lent. I actually have that disc which I bought when it came out. It sounds better (less compressed) on the disc, but I hadn't listened to it in several years, so my impression is probably coloured by when I was listening to it when it came out. They had kind of the EMF vibe.

Here's a better one, I think (besides the aforementioned "Right Here, Right Now"

Artist: Jesus Jones
Album: Doubt
Track: "Real, Real, Real"
12 June 1990 Food Records/ EMI (UK) SBK Records (US)





...and here's the EMF you might remember. Both these tracks were probably a lot more fun to dance to in the clubs than just listen to, at least for me.

Artist: EMF
Album: Schubert Dip
Track: "Unbelievable"
7 May 1991 Parlophone Records





I think you can see they're all pretty similar.

Fun note: EMF was also the name of a 1984 album by....GG Allin...well, it was not actually the acronym that he used, but that's all you can print in polite company. He was one messed up and unhappy dude. Too bad he never got help for his various problems, but he was a perfect example of what an abusive childhood will do.
