"Al's Band" Song Discussion Thread

All you can hear on CDBaby is a sample, which gives you at least something. I will say I like the song, but at the same time, I realize this was an experiment, and it's not gonna be any chartbuster or anything. I don't think that is why they did this. Other than the sample on CDBaby, I'm pretty sure there is no other way to hear it unless you buy it. Sorry, Bob.

And there the mp3 is $1.99??

Yeah. I was willing to part with it, though. I guess you need to decide if you're willing to pay that much for something you can't really hear first.

Al's band should try to get a show on VH1. Like a surreal life type show where they all live in the same house for a month or something. Al could even join them.

Wow, that would be ridiculous. It could be called Yank of Love...

I don't expect this song to chart as mentioned earlier, but wasn't it just made for the fans?! I may be wrong, but I don't think they meant it for radio play.

You're right. It WAS made for the fans, exclusively. I don't think they even wanted for this to be anything else. But still, even if they're only doing it for the fans, they could have still made it A LOT better than it was. Like I said in my first impression, it sounds A LOT like something you'd expect to hear on a fan-made tribute album.

I can't even hear the words.

One thing they could fix easily: On the next song, there's no reason for everyone to sing 90% of the words. Why not trade off and do one verse each. I think that would have made it a lot easier to understand what the lyrics were...
