None of them really resonate with me.
I guess #3 or #4

None of them were able to capture the original pure sounds of the horns.

They were very synthesized electronic sounds.

I listed to Mobile's entry Mobile's entry(The lead singer came up with in 1 night just as was made aware of it) and it sounded like it was made in Mario Paint

It does have a definitive video-game feel.

Yea all those descriptions said something along the lines of "This tune resonated with Bob Rock because it sounds like death"

Drab, sterile sounding Bob Rock n' Roll! :drool:

EDIT: Rather than producing 'Seven Circles' - for those who are keeping score, that album blew just as hard, if not harder than Gravity - with the Tea Party, they should have just started making HNIC songs. Because, let's face it, Jeff Martin is just the kind of crazy that this country loves.. AND THEN that way Bob Rock could fuck it up and then still have time to go back and fuck it up some more. It'd be Bob-Rock-ified to the max, dude.

yeah bob made them all sound the same and sort of wanna bes of the original. Only #5 has a recognizable tune that you will be able to chant when drinking..

:O CHRISTINE! YOU SAID WHORES! YOU NAUGHTY GIRL YOU!

Does anyone watch Two and a Half Men? I am picturing Christine saying "whores" like the woman in the episode where Alan is dating the old woman who dies at the end while he's boinking her, and when he first meets her she calls Charlie's "date" for the night a "hoor." And that's how I hear it when I imagine Christine saying it

If you live in Canada, count your blessings.

I didn't think it could get any worse.
If my ears were my eyes I would had gouged them out.

Who in the world is responsible for that kind of ... filth ... garbage ... dirty grotesque horrible garbage

Wait a min, it's becoming clear now.
I think I know who's responsible for this now.

How can he possibly think this is *good* for hockey? Ratings? TV?

The term 'Train wreck' is now obsolete thanks to Versus

I like to think I'm more versatile than something specializing in just hockey ruining. A Jack of all trades, if you will. :nikki:
