I love Journey. But for some reason I hated, “Don’t Stop Believin” and I could not understand why I loathed that song until I recently rewatched The Sopranos for the second time after 16 years and the final episode had that song playing until the “blackout.” And now I know why…
Anyone else had a similar experience with a popular song that you couldn’t explain why it rubbed you the wrong way?
Don’t get me started on Jump! What were they thinking!?
‘Right guys, we’re one of the biggest rockbands in history right? And Edward, you’re one of the hottest guitar players since Hendrix are you not?
What if, and hear me out on this one, you don’t actually play any guitars in this song except maybe for the solo?’
Drives me crazy that that’s become their most popular son!
eddie was actually pretty hesitant on releasing jump for that very reason
I can see why that would be the case.
It pained me to see the obituary news items for one of the greatest guitarists ever to feature the one song where he isn’t even playing his guitar.
