Good to see the ECI drones back in your sig!

Ditto on the sample. Too bad the original's sound isn't cleaner. That's one thing I like better about the cover.
78, was the office on last night? If so I missed it. Any good? I'll be lookin' online for it.

Yeah.
Generations A-side material was already in short supply.
Remove FITH and TPIYH from it, and what's left?
"A Better Life", maybe?

You got it. And even with the few good song possibilities they half assed it.
How does one of the best tracks end up as a bonus?
Even "A Better Life", the cleanest sounding track is repetitive with not much life to it.
They could've made better songs out of "Believe" and even "Every Generation" if they got Cain off the vocals.

This song hearkens back to the CLASSIC, classic SP sound more than any other song I can think of in the current era. I'm thinking Departure/Infinity/Evolution era rockers. Great crunchy guitar, nice upbeat feel, midtempo, good harmonies. It's neither 80sized nor modernized as per the usual current Journey sound. I love this song.
I think it's great.
Neal's solo is far better than Cain's sappy lyrics deserve.
Cain even throws in a little Hammon-B3 into the mix.
Arnel, it goes without saying, sounds brilliant.

Even Neal's lead tone is far less processed than the last 10 years or so - just his clean playing. Reminds me a LOT of his playing on songs like Do You Recall, Just The Same Way etc...
and the organ is great too
