Oh, yeah. Vocally, he sounded great! :D

(Except on Take Me, which kinda sucked, because it's one of my favorites among the RSO stuff. That one would have needed a complete do-over in order to be broadcast, because it was pretty bad. Then again, I don't think I've seen a really good live performance of that one yet. I'm not sure how many times he's done it; but I know it sucked when they did it in NYC, too.)

I was just asking about the guitar parts since I hadn't noticed the overdubs Captain Jovi was referring to, and wouldn't be able to pick them out if I tried.

Richie's been used, again... https://www.adelaidenow.com.au/enter...9a535fb5316ddb

Just confirms what I suspected when she first started posting snippets of her song (with commentary). Looks like somebody paid attention to Jon's promotion strategy.

If you're gonna steal, steal from the best, baby! :rolleyes:

Orianthi should really stick to session work. She's desperately boring and her music is dreadful.

How? I don't see it. Artists write about break ups all the time. Some artists seem to be unable to write songs about anything else. How is Richie being used?

Yeah, if she was really using him for fame and notoriety the album wouldn't have taken so damn long to come out. Personally I think they actually were into each other and when it ended she didn't take it well. Her making songs about it is kind of par for the course as an entertainer.

Not only that, she's not going out of her way to say it's about Richie, it just obviously is. If she were using the situation to her advantage she'd be on TMZ and going to media outlets with that angle only.

Did you ever study Marketing?

Pretty much how I see it. Some people really disliked Richie breaking from the Band, some disliked him not doing a proper solo album, some more disliked her as a person, some people didn't think their collaboration had a real chance to bring good music (I'm in this category - two lead guitars with non compatible voices) etc. These and more are all valid opinions. One might even think that she was in it for his money, and that would be a valid if a not bit rude opinion as well. All of this has lead to Ori being somewhat of a disliked person around here. Fair enough.

But at least from that article one really has to reach far and wide to think that she is using Richie now.

Why don't you just answer my question and then I will answer yours.
