Day 27 - A Song you had high hopes for but you found it didn't fit quite right.

A lot of people gave 7 Seconds a lot of flak after they came out with their second album.

I wanted to like it. They play this song live every time and I guess it’s an “anthem.” But I i think this song is pretty weak.

7 Seconds - 99 Red Balloons

 
Day 27: A song you had high hopes for but found it didn't fit quite right
When this came out, a friend very excitedly asked me if I'd heard Weezer's cover of "Africa" yet. I had not. He was so eager to put it on.
It was fine.
Not terrible. But not stupendous. Maybe having Weird Al in the video made it better than just the audio we were listening to at the time? I don't hate it. I'm glad it gave my friend such joy. But I'm okay not hearing it again. Or only hearing it once in a great while.
"Africa" - Weezer

I'm still a huge fan of The Killers, I used to think they could do no wrong (musically-speaking; I don't approve of all the murders 😉) but this entire album just did nothing for me. This is the song I dislike least from it.
The Killers - Quiet Town

This version is what got my brother to open up about misheard lyrics 😂

I’m an old Shinedown fan. I just couldn’t get into this one.

Hope - Shinedown
