Takin It Back?

Grypweed 06-17-2008 01:26 PM

One of their worst ;)

Nah, it's just the chorus. I hate it.

Sleep-When-Im-Dead 06-17-2008 01:37 PM

I concur. That was a "WHAT THE ****ING ****" moment for me. This song is gay.
But still, I gave the box set a solid A rating.

Love it. The guitar work is awesome, reminds me of AC/DC. Hell yeah, the boys can rock! Lyrics don't count when the music is good and fun like this.

It's a great song IMO. Not exactly poetry, but it doesn't need to be, it just rocks. I LOVE "We'll raise a glass to the good times past, and then we'll tear this damn place down!" :D

I didn't even know that line existed (shows how much I listen to it) until someone here posted it, then someone else said it was wrong - I had to look it up to see which song it belonged to.

I can't remember most of the song TBH, just the chorus, which is why I don't like it.

Sleep-When-Im-Dead 06-17-2008 03:57 PM

I love this "I've been away so long I hardly knew the place
It's been too long since I've been around
Just like I rolling stone I ain't go no home
But my boys are back in town":D

LOL at the "kick it" part.. Well I'm not a huge fan of the song but honestly I wouldn't mind if it was a song out of one of the latest albums (;

The only "kick it" I respect and like is the one in "Loaded Mutha" from steelheart :P

Crushgen24/88 06-17-2008 09:30 PM

It's a good song.
Certainly not super-amazing, but quite good.
Love the verses, chorus isn't good though.

KeepTheFaith2211 06-17-2008 09:35 PM

I like it, as said, the chorus isn't the best but it's a fun song. :)

liljovi93 06-17-2008 09:35 PM

It's an alright song.

Sami 06-17-2008 10:52 PM

The problem is the chorus = Tokyo Road.

And therefore it's good that it is only on the box set. ;-)

slippery89 06-18-2008 01:18 AM

Was this song for the Keep the faith sessions because it's all over the song about coming back? Great song though

Yeah, it is. First time I heard it I thought it sounded more like an NJ era song though

The main riff is awesome

Chorus of Taking It Back > Chorus of Tokyo Road (verses too while I'm at it)

The Northern Cowboy 06-18-2008 01:53 AM

Never liked it that much, to be honest. I will agree though that the guitar riff is awesome.

kenobi_on_a_prayer 06-18-2008 10:39 AM

Won't happen but I'd like to see it live, it'd be a lot of fun if performed well.

Captain Walrus 06-18-2008 12:59 PM

I've only just remembered what you guys are on about with the "kick it" part .... I think it's awesome, what's not to like about it?

glad someone agrees it is awsome. Awsome song, i wish some of the KTF demos had been put on the album in place of fear, and woman in love. Then it would be listanable all the way through which IMO it isnt.

I think the way he said it is totally gay.

severo17 06-18-2008 07:18 PM

For the melody, if you like "Tokyo Road" you like this one.
I like it :D
