However, upon second and third listen, I developed a new appreciation for it. While I agree there are some songs that are just wrong, "Colors of the Spirit" and "Castle's Burning." Is it just me or does anyone else conjure up images of OJ and Nicole while listening to that song? Others, like "Forever In Blue" and "If He Should Break Your Heart" are classic Journey through and through. The album, though at times spotty is still great in my book. My only wish is that they could have toured behind it.
PLEASE don't take offense at this, b/c I so don't mean it that way, but I HATE these songs. And it seems I'm against the grain on this one, b/c these songs are listed by MANY people as their favorites from TBF, and I simply can't stand listening to them, lol. The point is that it amazes me just how different even Journey fan's tastes can be about Journey (besides that little singer issue thingy of course, lol).
blah, blah, blah, lol. I'm just thinking aloud. don't mind me...
