Re: Seven O'Clock
oh yeah forgot to mention how bad both of those lines are in each of those. The trump reference is pretty bad on Seven o Clock, and the Government line on River Cross was so..unnecessary.JasnNC wrote:I might agree, but the Trump references hold it back. It’s like the dream world of the song is broken by a real-world reference. Same thing with the government references in River Cross. Still really like both of them though.SJM wrote:My favourite right now as well. The verses are amazing. Reminds me Springsteen - downbound train or cross my heart?

Love it.

Re: Seven O'Clock
It is pretty heavy handed on the Springsteen influence. Just for fun..if you want to hear Bruce sound exactly like Eddie vocally, listen to 1:00-1:04 of Bruce’s song Nothing Man.

well, in terms of an inversion, one is a terribly boring slog, while the other is now unfairly being compared to a boring slog of another singer/songwriter.stip wrote:I want to draw attention back to my brilliant observation that no one has talked about.stip wrote:it struck me this morning that lyrically and sonically this is an inversion of sleight of hand

I have no idea how someone could not hear the Springsteen influence on this. It's so obvious during the first few verses.
