You know what's funny? They were probably high-fiving each other when listening to the finished version of that song, thinking it was a hit single. Instead it is universally disliked.

All The Way's OK, it's just kinda..."eh."

So safe and by-numbers with a borderline cringeworthy title. Nice delivery by Augeri, cookie-cutter Neal power ballad solo a Cain rubber-stamped ballad paino riff, It's just another WYLAW.

But NOT the biggest dud on Arrival. It's still Signs Of Life to me, and when I first read the title of that song, I thought that was sure to be a hard atmospheric rocker along the lines of World Gone Wild.

Do You Recall rocks ass.
Can Do sucks ass.

Gone Crazy
? Billy Gibb wants to know who stole that song out of the ZZ Top Warehouse.


True...except the guitar solo on Lady Luck is one of Neal's coolest...his tone and note choices make the hair on the back of my neck stand STRAIGHT UP!

God, I'd love to post on this discussion and remain on these forums, but everyday I come here there's another slur against gays. Some of you use "fag" and other words without one thought of consideration for any fan that might be gay. Guess what folks, I'm gay. And as much as I love the music of Journey and the words from the majority of you guys, I just can't tolerate any more of the fag bashing.

I hope it makes those of you who do it, feel better, because it sure makes me feel awful.

Yep. Absolutely KILLER fusion of rock and blues by the Schon/Rolie combo.
