    What I was reacting to was:

    First I was all excited that at least one of the clips (I haven't heard them yet) seemed to be a crossover between AB & POP (a match made in heaven). And then a few post later, someone tells me that it sounded nothing like that ...... at that moment disappointment and confusion kicked in....
    Oh well, I guess I have to listen for myself and make up my own mind.




    Ah, okay. Opinions might largely differ, especially on a recording like this, so you'll indeed have to listen to them to make up your mind.
  2. Originally posted by yeah[..]Yep, that's true. It's hard to judge by these clips. That's just the impression I got - might change drastically when I hear the album.

    Indeed, same here - I can hear something high pitched, but how people like Nicole can make out lyrics is beyond me lol!

    That's only what I hear through my decent speakers from about a half hour of listening--I could be entirely wrong, so don't take it as utter truth! We'll all hear something different in these clips, just like we'll all hear something different when the album comes out.

    The only thing that's definite is that number 3/Sexy Boots is definitely not a ballad.

    Let's just make a deal: If Mercy as we know it makes it on the album, I'll log out and never come back. If not, you'll do the same. Agreed?


    I would, if i wasn't liked a whole lot more

    Mummy didn't love you did she?

    But I had always thought you spoke the gospel truth, Nicole! My faith in your hearing has been destroyed

    Ha, it's about as ballad-ish as the AIDS song from Team America...

  6. Originally posted by MacphistflyWhat of the original 06' beach clips, does anyone think one of them can make it in?


    I listened to them again yesterday and I think--again, this is just my opinion--that 402, if it were worked on a bit more, might have a chance. It's a tiny bit more layered, I think, than 404, which is the main quality that the four new beach clips share.

    Again, though, that's just my opinion, and it's based on far-less-than-studio-quality clips recorded on mobile phones.

    About as many times as I've been lynched around here! ...oh wait, that's never. Have you listened to these clips yet? I'm waiting for your review--THAT will be the REAL absolute gospel truth!!

    Here here, although I think we'd better stay on topic ourselves
