Oh, good...I'm glad I didn't know that one at first! That is one mediocre album by any standards.

Pretty much. They made worse, though. It's a nice Zeppelin-esque album, their debut.

^ I don't get it.  |
Hey now, baby, Well, I like your smile. Won't you come and talk to me for a little while? Well, you're makin' me crazy, The way you roll them eyes. Won't you come and sit with me? I'll tell you all my lies. Chorus Hey baby, it's a quarter to eight, I feel I'm in the mood. Hey baby, the hour is late, I feel I've got to move. Well, hey now, baby, Don't you talk so fast. I'm just tryin' to make these good times, I'm tryin' to make it last. Everything's getting hazy. Now honey, where'd you go? I just want to find out, baby...where'd you learn what you know? Chorus Well, hey now, baby, I said I like your style. You really got me, baby, way down deep inside. Ooh, you drive me crazy. Baby, you're the one. I just want to rock-and-roll you woman, until the night is gone. Chorus
Ring any bells?

^When you're in the mood? It was a quarter to eight about 45 minutes ago (by my time).

I can say that I have not contributed to this at all!
I haven't written a review in a month or so. 
Only when the time is right.

I have noticed recently that about 95% of reviews shown on the front page are being done by collaborators. I think this must have something to do with only being able to review if you are a member of the forum? Anyway, the quality of the reviews does seem to have increased. There aren't so many short reviews anymore saying things like "this sucks". So, the recent changes seem to be a good idea IMO.  |
I was recently (well like two days ago) promoted to collaborator status. I think it's a good thing that only forum members can write reviews. If someone wants to be an active expressive member of this community, they need to join it.
It may not be a good message to say "only forum members can participate in this community". On the contrary it may be a good message to show that this community will support it's members and still allow any other visitors to access reviews, profiles, and etc on this site.

There are things that we know we don't know, and things we don't know we don't know.....

Yes I know. The trouble is that my reviews are usually too short. I must admit that. I'm honest at least.
