Missing Cleveland

[STPGurl]

"I'm missing Cleveland and the snow"

OMFG.  I.  Heart.  Scott.  Weiland.  And I thought I was the only Clevelander that liked snow.  Awwwe.  Me + Scotty.

This stuff sounds exactly like what I thought it would sound like (though I like "Missing Cleveland" much better than "Paralysis".  Oh, how I love that voice.  I could listen to him allllll day.

Wait - I have.  lol.

ETA:  So we have a download link for "Missing Cleveland" -- how about one for "Paralysis"...?

Right off the bat not too crazy bout "Cleveland" not sure its the kind of tune I'd ever go out of my way to listen to repeatedly really, sounds kinda like a tune that would gain him a new younger audience who listen to poppy stuff, hmm.. However, loving 'paralysis'

[Rocketboy]

Great song.
Far more "commercial" than I expected.

After a couple of spins im digging Clevland more .. good tunes .. is Clevland gonna be the 1st single??

[weilandfan]

He's got a song up on his myspace page, I'm thinking either one could be the 1st single... I haven't heard what it will be so who knows. They are both growing more & more on with me each listen.

New message from Scott's MySpace account-

Is he saying he misses the snow or the drew carey show .. its unclear to me

Missing Cleveland is fucking amazing. I've listened to it at least 8 times so far. And I like it more with every listen.


Paralysis is good, but Missing Cleveland definitely has that "popular single" vibe to it.


I can't wait to see what other songs we get to hear before November 25th.

Not to be negative (because I'm very happy to be able to hear new music from Scott), I agree that the production is a little weird, and Cleveland is a generic sounding song. Out of all of STP's career and even VR, they never had to resort to using the dreaded "I V vi IV" chord progression (the most over-used chord progression ever) to get a hit... this is why it sounds generic. (more about that: http://www.angelfire.com/fl4/moneychord ... esson.html).

Some people will say "but its about the words and the melody"... but I say when its using something so generic, then what goes on top of it ends up generic too.

It seems every band resorts to this if they need a hit, and I was hoping Scott wouldn't ever do it.

Although I'm pretty happy with Paralysis... the chorus is awesome.

Oh drynaski you elitist you

[Five Star Edge]

Mentions here that "Happy" and "Paralysis" will be the singles from the album.

Matt Sorum broke into Douglas Green's studio and lowered the vocal mix!

LOL!!

[everylilwhore]

I knew you'd be popping in here soon. 

I had to. Cleveland is just plain poor.

The other one is a bit catchy, but kind of annoying at the same time.

I hold true judgment until I hear the whole CD.

[Vaporized]

Yeah, pretty mediocre if you ask me... it's generic it seems. It makes me cringe knowing this is what he's going with for a single.
