I can live with the inexpensive packaging, as a matter of fact, I embrace it for saving a buck and maximizing profits. However, I can not tolerate incorrect or missing lyrics. I can't sing the songs accurately, I need the right lyrics.

I completely agree. I can try to figure them out but wouldn't it be easier if one of the band members just forwarded them to someone to post?

It's pretty easy to understand the words as they are sung. I transcribed Tantra in only three plays. Three because I type slow, not because I couldn't understand what was sung.

How about re-releasing Eclipse with a real case and songbook? What is there to lose? After Generations, this album could very well be their worse selling full length release since Robert Fleischman left the band.
When they are done with their European tour and have a few weeks down time, they might want to see about trying to salvage this album at retail.

A two year old could type the lyrics to Tantra ...you have thirty~three point 5 seconds
between each word ...he practically spells the words out for you as he's sounding/rounding
each syllable ...it reminds me of speech therapy, the musical!!

There are extra lyrics at the end of City of Hope on the lyrics that aren't included in the recorded track... The entire last 4 lines on paper aren't in the tune...

Wouldnt say it's THAT easy. Is he singing "he" or "she" in She's a Mystery?
The incorrect printed lyrics seem a little unprofessional.

Many 'English as a second language' speakers mix up their personal pronouns, not that uncommon at all. Why it wouldn't be caught after two vocal takes might qualify as a mystery though.
I didn't notice it myself.

If the album sales don't pick up, don't be surprised if you see this CD given away for free* if you buy a concert ticket for this tour or definitely next year's.
*Included in the ticket price just like the Generations CD

Perhaps at the concert, they can have the official Eclipse Tour Book or whatever, and inside they can have the real lyrics printed. They will probably charge a few bucks for it, but it will be full color and worth it.
Who can we get on this?
Neal, are you reading this?

I did! There is a thread called Tantra with the lyrics to that song hand typed by me. That's my part, now somebody else do one.

Well for only a few bucks I'm afraid all you and the other 27,000 people who bought the cd would get are photocopies of the lyrics scribbled on college ruled paper that are folded up and stuffed in an envelope.

If I have to explain this to you, you might not understand anyway.
