I WAS alive 20 years ago and I remember being a Motley fan back when albums like Shout At the Devil and Girls, Girls, Girls were released, this song is just a modernized version of the Crue's old time style. You can't expect a band to be around this long and not mature musically (unless you are used to listening to bubble gum pop and expect someone like Brittany Spears to still be around when she is 40 ). In my opinion, this is one of the Crue's best songs. And I am a fan that remembers "Too Fast For Love" and its raw sound. Sorry to crap on your review guy, but no one wants to just hear "Shout at the Devil" be redone over and over for 20 years, if I band doesn't mature, they die out. Just take a look at all the other 80's bands and ask yourself why they are not still putting out new releases. 114761@blogcritics.org Thu, 3 Feb 2005 16:45:00 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/12/17/105201.php#comment-109163 "Street Fighting Man" is this a Rolling Stones cover??? "Too Young to Fall in Love" is my favorite Motley Crue song, does anyone know what the remix is supposed to be? Also, I checked out their "If I die Tomorrow" song, it sucks. Jim Richards does not know what he's talking about. It's not a contemporary rock song, it's an Alternative Rock song. Too bad I wasn't alive 20 years ago, cause that was the time when Motley Crue was a Rock "and Roll" band! 109163@blogcritics.org Sun, 16 Jan 2005 18:05:11 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/12/17/105201.php#comment-105552 Eric, I threw this up on Advance.net - for Dec. 27 If you are committed to good "first draft" you might want to look over the copy on Advance.net and see the small changes - and sometimes big changes. The big changes are almost always done for space, however. NB: I'm posting this message to all reviews, not singling you out at all. :-) 105552@blogcritics.org Mon, 27 Dec 2004 00:48:01 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/12/17/105201.php#comment-105535 man - it's all about the boobs with this Crue. Um, no complaints. 105535@blogcritics.org Mon, 27 Dec 2004 00:02:13 EST
