Lmao thinking that the Bon Jovi of the 90s on their 30th year could put out anything as deep or as interesting as you're suggesting.

Say whatever you want. I can still call your opinion asinine.
That's cool, but stifling conversation about specific musical elements by calling it cringeworthy and saying "go back to Backspacer" (?) is a bit of a dick move; personally I find it interesting to talk about how songs are constructed, what works and doesn't work about the inner workings of a composition. You glossed over what I said (that the issue isn't that there's an extended middle section, but that said section becomes repetitive towards the end by pivoting to the four main chords that make up the bulk of the song) and dismissed it as nitpicking. You weren't even debating the opinion itself, but the fact that it was expressed at all.

Jorge, have any opinion you want. Like whatever parts of whatever songs you want. My post was meant as only semi-serious and also as a joke. I also enjoy debating the types of things you mentioned. But sometimes I don’t care about having the debate at all. Sometimes it’s more fun to say “that opinion sucks!” in a slightly more theatrical way. That’s all I was doing. Please don’t let one post ruin your day. You are permitted to continue to have terrible Gigaton opinions.

I just wanted to say that the part from 2:30 onwards in Who Ever Said is ace. That's probably the song section I most look forward to aside from the ending of Seven O'Clock and DOTC when I'm listening to the album.

i just wanted to see if he'd follow through instead of backing down once someone responds semi-intelligently, per usual.

i guess someone wanted attention. if pearl jam ever entered bon jovi territory it was on the last 2 albums, not in the 90s.

Lecherouslittlestump is a troll. It's best to ignore them as nothing they say is any way a sincere or even consistent opinion.
