Good Ain't Good Enough

Hey guys, I couldn't find a topic on this forum about this song so I made one myself. Despite not being one of the greatest bad quality demos out there, lately i've been listening to it kinda often and I was wondering if anyone here can understand the lyrics in the first 30 seconds.


And by the way, what do you guys think about this track?Should have it made it on Crush or is it better that it stayed in the vault? would you like to hear a studio quality version of the song, does anybody have a higher quality recording of this song?

Not on Crush but I would have really liked to see the Sex Sells Album come to fruition. That song would have been a key song if it was released.

I believe the versions out there are the best around that I know of. I think they are difficult for an average fan to try and remaster because all the audience chatter is on one track which would be really hard to separate. Even for a professional. There might be a way to tone some of it down but that's way outside of my abilities.

I never got why so many people were talking instead of listening. That's Backstage with JBJ for you.

I still have hopes that if they do continue with these special edition releases that a Crush / Sex Sells album will happen and that song would be included.

There are still a few songs remaining from that period that are still unreleased... Plus they might even recycle some songs that were already released, as remastered or other demoed versions just to complete the album.

Good Ain't Good Enough

It's amazing how many songs came from the Sex Sells/Crush and Bounce period.

Here are some lyrics I found online:

Time ain't no friend to me
Why did you have to leave me dry?
I ain't blind

Every time that we kiss
You left the taste on my lips
To remind me good ain't good enough
All the nights that we that we shared
I leave knowing you were there
Here's the scars that prove good ain't good enough

The sun don't shine on my face
The flowers died out on my firescape
The summer leaves don't want to fall
You put me down despite it all

Time ain't been good to me
Why did you have to make me cry?
Driving blind

Every time that we kiss
You left the taste on my lips
To remind me good ain't good enough
All those nights that we that we shared
I leave knowing you were there
Here's the scars that prove good ain't good enough

You said that you couldn't live without me
Then why can you live without me now?
When he holds you in his arms
And steals you with his charm

Every time that we kiss
You left the taste on my lips
To remind me good ain't good enough
All those nights that we that we shared
I leave knowing you were there
Here's the scars that prove good ain't good enough

Every time that we kiss
You left the taste on my lips
To remind me good ain't good enough
All those nights that we that we shared
I leave knowing you were there
Here's the scars that prove good ain't good enough
