Advantages: See op Disadvantages: They've gone a bit poo
...it is so true to life.
13. Show me what you've got.
‘My bad ass band without them nothing but a pumpkin shoved inside a can’. 7/10
Again more bouncy. A rap where Fred thanks everyone from Eminem to his daughter Adriana. He talks about the band’s antics around the country. This reminds me a bit of Kid Rock. All kind oh yeeehah and aren’t we good. Not the best track on the CD but good to hear Marshall Mathers getting a mention.
14. A lesson learned.
‘This pain in my stomach won’t go away’ 6/10
Downbeat with just Fred singing about lessons over a beat rather like a heartbeat. This is a rather odd addition to the CD but it is rather sad as it says that despite fame he is the loneliest he’s ever been. Bless.
15. Outro ‘ What the world needs now is a musical revolution...

Advantages: Experimental album, lyrics, 3 classic-tracks, 2 hits, the booklet is much better. Disadvantages: The presentation of "40", sound, the booklet is still not good enough yet, lyrics with mistakes.
..., how can I value this piece ? It is of course a song which mentions absolutely as a start of playing recommendation and would have to receive full ~10/10 ~. I would grant personally any more 2 points to this piece, in the meantime, not even, therefore, I leave it to every reader myself whether he uses this as a recommendation, or, however, will not be able to listen to this once again.
~without evaluation~
4. Like A Song:
It starts with wild drumming, cocals and a guitar are joining. Bono increases up to complete exhaustion in his singing, shouting, crying, begging. You can hear a fine drumming and fine backing-vocals of Cheryl Poirier, Adriana Kaegi and Taryn Hagey. In the final part the song falls silent, time for a brilliant solo of Larry Mullen Jr on the drums, in addition The Edge puts smartly, but discreetly, guitar salvos...

Advantages: best story teller in hip hop history Disadvantages: none another advan is the use of english humour
...,basically anything thats good) if i was a woman i would be completely charmed by his voice lol no im not gay (check my homepage profile fav model is adriana lima) but his voice qualifies as one of the best i rap history, he has a New York accent but then every now and then you hear that old skool english accent kick in, not the type you hear kids speak with today in london but instead that old 'blimey gov'ner' chimney sweep kinda accent and added with the his soft bronx new york accent it takes the harsh/hard sounding roughness off of the english accent to great effect, and i love the way he lenghten the end of words 'caaaaaash' lol.
Now this guy was real funny, he was pretty flashy too, not in a big headed way, he just liked to look different which is why when he got blinded in his right eye (i i remember rightly) but instead of getting this seen...
