[size=1][color=darkblue] I want to discuss Kid Rocks recent song, in where he duets with Sheryl Crow in a genre I thought he would never touch!

Overall, i kind of enjoyed this track, i was shocked, to say the least, when it was a country style duet. I am certain that Kid Rocks music is, well, Rock.

What did other users think of Kid Rocks new single, Do you like this new direction? Or do you think it's a one off? I like it quite alot :D [/size][/color]

[color=teal]I would say and hope it's a one off! I'm not really fond of this track and whenever it's on the T.V I tend to change it over if I can be bothered heh. What can I say, it's just not Kid Rock, hence 'rock'. It was probably an enjoyable experience for both Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow, but it was too mellow for me.[/color]

[color=indigo]I am not sure how you can claim this song is not Rock...Rock is not necassarily rowdy, upbeat music; it is also blusey stuff like this song. Anyway, I think this song is pure crap...I don't really like Sheryl Crow or Kid Rock...while they both have undeniable talent, the song is just to blah for me.[/color]

[size=1][color=darkblue]Hey Cajones, I thought this was our favourite song? Hee Hee 'I put your picture awaaayyyy *strangled cat*'.
Well, anyway, this song is o.k, it guess Kid Rock has toned down in the last two years. 'Devil Without a Cause' was a superb album, I own a copy of it, and it has catchy tracks, including a much better duet, featuring Eminem. Then 'History of Rock' was released, basically just a collaboration of songs from previous albums. Again, a good album, pretty much every song on their was pure genius in my opinion. Then, we are given 'Cocky'. It's not great, but it's not total crap either. He kind of goes back to his country roots in a few songs, still rock, but more gentle. The album seems mismatched, with songs like 'Cocky' and 'Forever' being moderatley heavy for an artist like Kid Rock, but then mellow tracks like 'Picture' and 'Lonely Road of Faith'. All great tracks, but completely different. The bonus track, a duet with Snoop Dogg is a million times better than 'Picture', so have a listen to that![/color][/size]

[B][size=1][color=crimson]'Tis not good. It doesn't suit him at all and I cannot stand music that sounds that way.[/size][/color] [/B][/QUOTE]

[color=black][size=1][font=rockwell] Amen. I feel the same way. Country has always been my least liked music genre. Of course there are a [i]few[/i] good country songs. But if you asked me to name more than five or so, you'd get one blank stare from me.

It doesn't suit Mr. KR at all. And the song is just horrible anyways. Bleh. Country.[/color][/size][/font]

Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow (to a lesser extent) are both completely washed up musically in my opinion anyway. Why they continue to sell records as their songs get progressively worse and all wind up sounding similiar, I have no idea.

Some country is good... Notably stuff by Will Oldham.

I loathe Sheryl Crow. It's annoying how her voice just gets stuck in my head, and it drives me crazy. x.x; Especially with this song. I'm not really fond of either of these artists, and I especially don't like this song.

Besides, it's not really my taste of music. It's a little too... yellow-ish for me. >>;[/color] [/size]

[size=1][color=darkblue] I like good rock most of the time, but I do have a soft spot for some mellow 'country' songs and whatnot. I guess it's the lyrical content that really makes a song for me, and this song is about two people finding each other and redemption sort of, it really has some beautifull lyrics. Not to say that I wil EVER leave Rock Music behind, I am the [lazlow voice] Rebel Rouser and Chief [/lazlow voice] [/size][/color]

I'm fixin to scream...I only wish you know how much I loathe that song...gah...

How can anyone say they couldn't picture Kid Rock in this kind of role, lol? Has anyone here heard "Only God Knows Why"? It's one of his greatest, I highly recommend it.

Anyway, I guess it was good at first, but I've heard it so many times that I start grinding my teeth whenever it starts playing now.

[color=green]IcyBunny, please put a little more effort in your posts.

I've only heard a clip of the song, and it doesn't sound too bad to me. I'm not a big fan of Sheryl Crow, but I can usually tolerate most of her songs. And Kid Rock singing a somewhat country song doesn't seem that unbelieveable. Like Justin said, "Only God Knows Why" is one of his greater songs, and that one is pretty country-ish. Kid Rock has always been sort of a rock-rap-country blend.

Anyway, I guess I can't give a really vidi opinion, since I haven't heard the whole song. Still, what I heard was okay. Not very good, but not very bad either.[/color]

[size=1][color=darkblue]'Only GOd Knows Why' from Devil Without a Cause. That's a classic song. I wouldn't call it country though. I don't know what genre to brand it with, so I'm not going to scare people away by saying it's something it's not. It's got a pwoerful chorus, and meanigful lyrics. Check it out, it is, as said before, one of his best tracks. Hey, if we're comparing his best trakcs aswell, check out 'Early Morning Stoned Pimp'. That's quality![/color][/size]

Hey bud, I put effort where I like K? If you have something against free speech delete away, The song is POO and nuff said was my comment. If you would like some Pseudo intellectual answer to why, go look elsewhere.

[B]IMHO the song is poo... nuff said [/B][/QUOTE]

Did I beat you with my baton and demand that you put more effort in your posts? No. I simply requested that you say just a little bit more than the above sentence. [i]Maybe[/i] some of us would like to know why you think the song is "poo." Do you not like Kid Rock? Don't like Sheryl Crow? Don't like this song in particular?

I didn't make a demand. I made a request. If short unexplained posts were a running habit for you, then it'd become a demand.

I'm not going to delete your post. I love the idea of free speech. If I had something against free speech, that post would've been deleted a long time ago.

wow someone needs to calm down...

I heard the song like twice in a 2 hour time persiod on the same station.
it still makes no sense to me. If its only been 3 days: why are they already sleeping with other people? Why are they putting the pictures away? and why at the end are they acting like its been years since they've seen each other?
and another thing. if she called the hotel how could see their half-hearted smiles??
