I pretty much agree. TOH is useless and I think Misunderstood could've been a lot better.

Still a great little pop tune and I still love the quirkiness of the III chorus. Cute lyrics with a good message. A pleasant little pop song that deserved to do well. Funny how on an album that was supposed to be rocking as billed prior to the release (Richie's new flying V and all and him saying they were not feeling the ballads) the song that succeeded the most was this fun little pop number. When I heard it at the Borgata in the midst of all the TLFR songs it felt like an old friend.

Why? Is the meaning of the word lost to you?

TOH is useless, because it's boring, it doesn't have a chorus, its tempo is too slow, it doesn't have any power to be a rock song, and it doesn't have any feeling to be a ballad. The lyrics are a collection of clichés. So, it's useless.

No, it's not.

Ok, that's your opinion. I disagree, except for the lyrics.

But that was not my point.
If it was exciting, would have a chorus, more tempo, more power to be a rock song or more feeling to be a ballad and better lyrics, in what way would it be useFUL then?
Do you mean useful=worth listening, or what? That's all I wanted to know.

Splitting hairs I see. Good songs are useful in plenty of ways. If you don't know that, you should find out.

I know that. I just wanted to know what exactly makes a song useful for you and how. If you can't just answer a question, you shouldn't reply at all.

Crush and Bounce were both big steps back for BJ, lets hope the next one will be more worthwhile.
