Politely disagree. Maybe just my tastes in music.
I mean a few parts are better, but the Metallica cover is is too uuurg. Too fast. Not right. The "chorus" part sucks.
BOC original has a certain, old school differentiation. Slower on the edge, not in your face. Even the (original) guitar at 4:20 in rangyier.
And odd ass lyrics and emphasis.
Oddly "Career of Evil" is burrowed in my brain now. Worst earworm ever. Weird. Hope there is no cover!
I have been revisiting AMERICA the past couple weeks and enjoying their songs and performances greatly.
Old and new. Sadly, no Dan Peek now. He took the high harmony and had a Neil young like range - but with more purity He sang lead on Lonley People.
I Never knew the band was formed in England with Air Force brats ! The singer here is Dewey Bunnell, British born. He has a unique voice as heard on Tin Man. The John Denver looking dude is Gerry, He has that cutesy, child like - almost 'cartoon character' voice as hear on Sister Golden Hair and I need You.
Seen them twice. The best believe or not was Disney in Fl over 12-15 years ago. Amazing show.I Feel Love by BMG with Venus Hum
