Exactly - This is just so NOT - Livin' With the Ghost. It is hardly recognizable. I don't mind social consciousness (mostly) but it sure as hell doesn't apply here.

I kind of like what they did with Reunion, but Living with the Ghost feels too forced.

Thank you for the links: I'm like most a bit underwhelmed by LWTG. I don't think anyone expected Jon to be so classless as to have a Sambora ghost on stage but there was the definite insinuations that it was about the band and the restart. I know how socially conscious he is - but it just didn't work imo with this song.

Welp.... I'll never be watching that again.

I'll keep the visual of the band performing it at the Barrymore Theater as a video. That was just awkward and ultimately boring... and that is just watching it, never mind the song and how it fits.

The two videos I was looking forward to have been the most underwhelming in 'The Devils In The Temple' and 'Living With The Ghost'

I get the reason behind the TDITT video but it was such a good opportunity to make a great video as was LWTG. Shame.

Thanks for the links

Nevermind changing the theme, LWTG was beautifully shot. Its editing was poor and it ruined the video. I can see what they were trying to do and it could have been a good video.

Can't believe how catchy THINFS is. I've been listening to it like crazy since it first appeared in August and I still didn't get bored of it.

Right on.
I feel this way about pretty much the entire album.
With the exception of COUTOH, the other 18 tracks remain in my regular rotation.
