OMG it's like good. But it's actually impossible to make this song sound bad.

I enjoy it when he stops trying to imitate and just lets the song move him; otherwise the strange fusion of guitar/synth isn't horrid.

Yeah, sounds like he was trying too hard in the vocal department. But the movement of synths in the verse and guitars in the chorus is decent sounding.

Nice review.

One slight thing. When you use "i.e." I think you meant "e.g." They're both grammatically correct but convey different ideas.



Not sure if I should listen to this. I didn't really like their first or latest release, but "We Are Not Alone" and "Phobia" used to be two of my favorite albums.

The point is that he actually imitates well. His voice fits very well in the song. Can't decide between whether DM cover is better or Queen. Both are pretty good.



Not sure if I should listen to this.


CD2 is definitely worthwhile. Like I said, if you forget you know the studio versions of those songs, Breaking Benjamin sound fresh. And thanks for the advise. Anything else I should be looking at?



They way they arranged the track listing for this makes me lol




What the hell are you guys talking about? If I didn't know Breaking Benjamin, I'd 4 the CD for the solid and progressive organization. Even knowing them, and admitting it's not the best tracklist ever, the thing is alright, it actually flows decently.

Nah, the rest was good.

I think they're just lol'ing about the fact that CD1 is just their singles (more or less) chronologically

Like I said, it's designed to sell. That's nothing new about Breaking Benjamin, why are they complaining?

Surprisingly, 'Enjoy The Silence' is not bad ... i don't understand why their 'Best Of' CD has 'Lady Bug' .. I think that is their worst song...

Dude, Ladybug is not that bad. Not their best by far, but a competent atempt at a punk song.

I din't like that song when i heard 'So Cold EP' .. I feel like punk is not their thing... i don know, maybe its just me...

Yes, it is. The second CD is all very good imo.

I feel punk is not their thing either and I wouldn't acclaim the song, but it wasn't a bad experience.

Yeah, I wrote a news article on that, check it out if you want more details. I almost agree with you, that song is really terrible. Well, not the song itself, the remix of.
