Hermione Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I like that it was a big achievement for the band and that it probably helped inspire/expand Billie's songwriting/creativity etc. And seeing Billie as St Jimmy was great. But otherwise it's not for me. Can't stand any cast song performances 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertine Angel Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Yeah, the only times I would listen to cast versions would be when I'm actually seeing the show, otherwise the original is always superior. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grohl Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Yeah I wasn't thrilled about the Broadway show. I was just happy that the boys were doing what they wanted and it was successful. I only wanted to see it when Billie was in the cast. After that, zero interest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwise Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I'd easily cut WICA, AWTW/St. Jimmy, Hitchin a Ride, KYE, and Holiday to make room for less played singles and non single fan favorites in the set. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After checking that we are in the unpopular opinions thread, so I can safely say this here... I would prefer that they delete AI and JOS from the setlist and keep Are We The Waiting and Saint Jimmy. Make place for other songs and especially 21st CB (I would love that they play again Static Age for instance) and trilogy songs. KYE can go and be replaced by 99 Revolutions.

Agree except for Hitchin A Ride (and AWTW if I was at the catwalk ). Throw in JOS and She too, wouldn't miss any of that selection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 While loving LIFL I'm not a fan of the 3 EPs from The Longshot. Everyone seems to love them but I only really enjoy Fever Blister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fever Blister is the only one that I'm listening to regularly, I love it. But maybe I just need to give the other songs more time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Billie Hoe Posted April 28, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2018 not sure this counts as unpopular considering the love for devil's kind, but yeah, Devil's Kind should have been on Revolution Radio instead of Ordinary World. I like Ordinary World but Devil's Kind balls so hard 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Ordinary World but Devil's Kind balls so hard I think Body Bag should have replaced OW for a RevRad album closer. It has a similar sad yet contended feel but is a little funnier and just a better song. Glad he finally released it though either way. Devil’s Kind would have fit anywhere on RevRad too but if he likes a sentimental closer that has some kind of resolution I think Body Bag could have worked well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I feel like Body Bag is sarcastic and that's not what he was going for at the end of revrad 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pouty bitch Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 While I do massively prefer Devil's Kind over both OW and Body Bag, I still wouldn't have wanted it on RevRad. I just feel like OW fits on the album better than the other two, even if it is probably the weakest song of the three imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it would have and maybe it would be a nice fun ending to the serious album. I think he was going for a Hollywood happy ending with OW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greendepent Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Devil's Kind is cool. But it doesn't fit anywhere on RevRad. Also, it's lyrics could have made a backlash like "oh, no, BJ is writing about parties and irresponsibility again" and then making guesses about his health. So it's the best that could have happened to that song. Is song for a movie, so nobody will associate with the rehab stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But also agree it wouldn't have fit on Rev Rad anyway I'm on team not getting the hype for it . It's a good song but not a particular standout, prefer most of the songs on LIFL 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OW is still my favorite song of the 3, followed by Body Bag, and then Devil's Kind. I enjoy that song a lot but I was one of the few not desperately waiting for The Longshot to get it out at last but it's great that they did 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but do you think they would've made Devils Kind or Body Bag different to better fit into the album? For example, the drums in the beginning of Devils Kind have a hint of distortion in them for that standout sound in the beginning. Whereas the drums in songs like bang bang have lot more of a restricted feel to them imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Devil's Kind just the way it is, and if that means it's released separately instead of on an album, that's fine by me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do find it quite mediocre though and don't think it's particularly beloved. I don't like the "loudspeaker" type vocal effects in it, always find that a bit cringy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
