It's like ...Who doesn't love a sandwich? <br /><br />It's like you subliminally are connected to the blog! Nice! <br /><br />But maybe you should be for real connected more often.

If you really sat back, a lot of what Gorillaz and Jamiroquai are doing is similar. Very similar tracks on albums. Especially 'The Fall'. <br /><br />And the Jamiroquai sandwich just isn't all that tasty. If Gorillaz is the Philly Cheese steak, I'd never stray from it. While the italian sausage hoagie that is Jamiroquai is in the same family of sandwich, it's not even close to the quality. <br /><br />I think I measured your analogy correctly.The B Sidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04949226362130714268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7798374127914540817.post-2843661036142252422011-05-05T10:45:23.424-05:002011-05-05T10:45:23.424-05:00???
I get you, kind of. But comparing Jamiroquai ...???<br /><br />I get you, kind of. But comparing Jamiroquai to NERD or Gorillaz is like comparing a panini to a Philly cheese steak sandwich or a 12' sub. <br /><br />(Follow me here)<br /><br />All three come with different toppings and cheeses. You can dress them up or down. Heck you can keep it traditional if you want to. To me, that's what these bands Jamiroquai, Gorillaz and NERD bring. They simplify, amp it up some but stay true all in the same token. All good sandwiches, all good bands...<br /><br />I know I probably rambled with no sense just then but, that's why I like your platform, you just let it go, you let it roll :)ihadsomelagearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13719329335717974665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7798374127914540817.post-50074039601649999262011-05-05T10:23:11.499-05:002011-05-05T10:23:11.499-05:00I probably wouldn't have done with one if not ...I probably wouldn't have done with one if not for peterman. I've never been a big Jamiroquai fan. <br /><br />I think in terms of being different, sure, it's got it's qualities. But if you think about bands that I'd also label as "different" like Gorillaz or NERD, those bands are doing it SO much better than Jamiroquai is. And it's really not even close. You can put on a Gorillaz or NERD album and be blown away by the music and the genre bending sounds. You don't really get that here. While I applaud the effort, it doesn't meet the hype. <br /><br />I won't disagree that it's better than other music out there today. No question. I just don't think it stacks up against other similar bands.The B Sidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04949226362130714268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7798374127914540817.post-40484066242204433662011-05-05T09:22:25.814-05:002011-05-05T09:22:25.814-05:00I was hopping you'd review this one soon. Lol,...I was hopping you'd review this one soon. Lol, I could've dropped it in the suggestion box but is never occurred to me. Anywayz, I'm glad you mentioned where on earth that logo for his albums came from because I'd always wondered what the heck it was.<br /><br />What makes it lackluster to you? In a way I agree with you that you might skip a track or two in trying to listen straight through. But for me, even when I try to skip, I stay on the same track out of sheer curiosity of what I might miss. By REPETITIVE, do you mean no real stand out tracks possibly?<br /><br />Personally, I find this to be a clear view compared to the cloudy windshield of most of today's music. (ohh yea, you like that one) LOL :)ihadsomelagearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13719329335717974665noreply@blogger.com
