sounds good!! I like the new single, sounds better than the entire last album. Any word on the tracklist for the DVD???


EDIT: just realized, this sounds like what "One Wild Night" should/could have been 10 years ago.... sigh.

Thanks for the tracklist. Nothing earth shattering, though Bad Actress is a bit of a surprise. I had figured Mirror Mirror would be a given. I was hoping they'd move on and forget about Nine Lives.

Listened to the new track. To be honest, it left me very cold.

It looks better than OWN, but I think given the fact that they have had 11 albums, it is a bit short - they should've included more live songs.

The new song Undefeated is pretty good. Hope the other 2 songs are as good or even better.

Oh, the DVD, it's a rip off. Not a full show.

It sounds like shit.

I wonder what's their reaction when they listen to their 1980-1983 material.

Best regards,
the Sexx

Now that I'm home and have time to really go over it, it sucks that they put three songs from Sparkle Lounge, none from On Through the Night (not such a big deal since they have understandably barely touched it since the Pyromania tour,) none from Slang, none from Euphoria, and none from X.

Get rid of Nine Lives, replace it with the bigger/better known (and as far as I'm concerned.. better all around) Promises. I like that they have Bad Actress because it is unexpected, but "Now" really should be there instead.

Thinking back, the X tour really was the time to have done this album. They covered the bases as far as all albums up to that point through the course of the tour. Hopefully the live versions sound great and propel the album as opposed to sounding tired and uninspired. I am looking forward to having a live version of that arrangement of Rocket at least.

Haven't really paid much attention to the track list untill now but I agree with all points given. On Through The Night, the band have pretty much openly disowned so there's no surprises there, and anything from Slang and X would have been pushing our luck a bit, sadly to say. Promises could have easily found a place on there though. I know it was played on the Yeah! tour in 2006. I suppose being their very first "stand-alone" live album they have to iron out the fan favourites, presumably, for the sake of the casual fans and their very recent resergence in popularity.

I do like the new single though.

Totally agree with this.

Just wanted to add my sentiments that Promises is a brilliant song. Very under rated IMO. But at the same time I quite like Nine Lives too.

As for Bad Actress, I thought it was one of the better songs from Sparkle Lounge.

I heard the live version of Rocket from Mirrorball on that online rock radio, and really, they shouldve released a live album when Joe's vocals were better.

Still, gotta love the Leps.
