Title: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: highend88 on May 05, 2006, 06:13:49 AM By far the best track for me from Contraband Album.
But the song itself is underrated. What's your view on this? Thanks... Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: SADIS on May 05, 2006, 06:37:18 AM I agree with you. By far the best VR song to date. I love that song, one of the best to come out the last 5 years. :peace:
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Booker Floyd on May 05, 2006, 07:08:49 AM Great song...Ive still yet to see an explanation for why its never been played live.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Eric on May 05, 2006, 07:45:09 AM I could not get into it that much, didn't care for it, but I remember during the recording Scott said it was the song that meant the most to him, or most emotional so far, so I am surprised he didn't do it live
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Evolution on May 05, 2006, 10:01:04 AM It's awesome, Scott sounds at his best vocally on it IMO
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: tomass74 on May 05, 2006, 10:16:33 AM That definately rotates as my favorite VR song.... There is so much feeling and emotion in it.. If I am driving around listening to it sometimes it really does put me in another place.. I know it sounds cheesey but it really does.... That back to back with DTL is just makes you want more cause those two songs are so good.
About Scott not being able to play it live... I think he said it's the saddest song he ever song and it's hard for him... I personally think it's a like a love/break up song about Heroin... Atleast part of it.. Sometimes is all the time And never means maybe Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Neemo on May 05, 2006, 10:28:25 AM Great song....I got a new found love for the Contraband album....though my fav right now is "you got no right" : ok:
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: pollyblue on May 05, 2006, 10:48:33 AM it's one of the best songs on contraband, but i like the demo version much much more. it has a real intimate vibe. very nice!
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Carlos_f_Rose on May 05, 2006, 11:13:25 AM Excellent song, but I prefer You got no right...
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: mrlee on May 06, 2006, 04:28:48 PM i dont see why everyone likes it. its boring.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: JAC185 on May 06, 2006, 04:47:11 PM Great song...Ive still yet to see an explanation for why its never been played live. Apparently they have like 11 guitars or something, and the intro is backwards, and its too emotional for Scott to want to sing again or something One or all of them is true Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Butch Français on May 06, 2006, 08:15:17 PM not my fav on the album, but a great song! : ok:
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Smoking Guns on May 06, 2006, 08:44:18 PM Cool song. Underrated Slash solo on it. I think the best song maybe You Got No Right.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: tomass74 on May 07, 2006, 07:56:56 AM Cool song.? Underrated Slash solo on it.? I think the best song maybe You Got No Right. YGNR is great.. Definately one of the best solos on teh album.. Along with STB and DLT.... Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: metallex78 on May 07, 2006, 08:45:03 AM Cool song.? Underrated Slash solo on it.? I think the best song maybe You Got No Right. YGNR is great.. Definately one of the best solos on the album..? I think the solo in YGNR is THE best solo on the album period. I remember listening to it over and over again when I first got Contraband, it just has such power and emotion to it. It's classic Slash. :beer: I'd love to hear more lke that from him on the follow-up. Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: slashisvr on May 07, 2006, 11:00:19 AM i love it, not may fav VR song, but its damn good
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: mikegiuliana on May 07, 2006, 12:37:00 PM I've always liked it, layed back different, just has a nice sound..
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Katrin on May 07, 2006, 12:38:30 PM It' s a great song. One of the few songs on Contraband I really like...
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Carlos_f_Rose on May 07, 2006, 01:28:23 PM I prefer YGNR and BIG MACHINE, the latter is really great... it rocks!
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: D on May 07, 2006, 01:51:43 PM LTA is easily the best slower song on the record. No Idea why it wasnt a single or ever played.
They missed the boat. Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Rob on May 07, 2006, 02:45:11 PM Good song, not one of my favs on the album but still quality. Its different.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: ryan_of_lax on May 07, 2006, 03:21:52 PM Loving The Alien and You Got No Right could have both been taken straight from the last Stone Temple Pilots CD.
If you like those songs, check out Shangri La Dee Da Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: A Private Eye on May 09, 2006, 07:45:21 PM Agree I think it's 1 of the best songs on the album, has a different sound to the other songs but it's very easy to listen and whilst it sounds a lame description I find it a very peaceful song and quite relaxing.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: McGann on May 09, 2006, 08:00:10 PM It states perfectly
How men and women differ In the way we're built. We might as well be Alien to each other And yet we still love. We speak the same words But the meanings don't match up. "Sometimes"? "All the time". "Never" means "maybe". It's like talking to my wife. Damn, I love that song. Splash /Mike Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: RichardNixon on May 09, 2006, 08:03:27 PM I absolutely love this song. It's Scott and Slash at their best. Easily as good as anything from STP or GN'R.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Guns N RockMusic on May 09, 2006, 09:56:21 PM Outstanding song. The first song the really hooked me into the album.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: COMAMOTIVE on May 09, 2006, 10:18:40 PM It's pretty good. Total Weiland tune. I hear of a lot of Shangri La Dee Da on it.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Communist China on May 09, 2006, 11:18:32 PM I do't like the song. It's not even the song, I just don't see how it fits into the album. Every song is a rocker, and then this mellow song. The whole album pumps me up, and then it ends on a yawner.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: COMAMOTIVE on May 10, 2006, 01:07:22 AM I do't like the song. It's not even the song, I just don't see how it fits into the album. Every song is a rocker, and then this mellow song. The whole album pumps me up, and then it ends on a yawner. Fall to pieces is not exactly a rocker. I think it would fall into the category of Radio-Made Pop, personally. The only song on the album that I'm not crazy about,actually. Despite Slash doing his best to save it - Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: tomass74 on May 10, 2006, 07:19:45 AM I absolutely love this song. It's Scott and Slash at their best. Easily as good as anything from STP or GN'R. Agreed....... Along with Suckertrain Blues, Slither, Dirty Little Thing, Big Machine and Superhuman IMO...... Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Communist China on May 10, 2006, 03:29:02 PM I absolutely love this song. It's Scott and Slash at their best. Easily as good as anything from STP or GN'R. Tell me you're joking. You can't put this song up there with Sweet Child, NR, Don't Cry, or any of the rocking tunes both bands have done. Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: COMAMOTIVE on May 10, 2006, 03:40:42 PM I absolutely love this song. It's Scott and Slash at their best. Easily as good as anything from STP or GN'R. Tell me you're joking. You can't put this song up there with Sweet Child, NR, Don't Cry, or any of the rocking tunes both bands have done. Holy shit, I must have missed that as well! Is this clown on crack? Loving the alien as good as anything from GNR? I think I need to check my eyes and read that again Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: makane on May 10, 2006, 05:03:23 PM I absolutely love this song. It's Scott and Slash at their best. Easily as good as anything from STP or GN'R. Tell me you're joking. You can't put this song up there with Sweet Child, NR, Don't Cry, or any of the rocking tunes both bands have done. Holy shit, I must have missed that as well!? Is this clown on crack? Loving the alien as good as anything from GNR?? I think I need to check my eyes and read that again I guess it's just hard for some people to understand Weiland's lyrical brilliance... the songs also has an awesome solo by Slash. Good song overall. And about it not fitting the album? I think it's the perfect ending for the album and yet a perfect new beginning for Scott, Duff and Slash. And I'm moving on... Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Linuc on May 10, 2006, 06:11:40 PM This is one of few songs i actually like of Contraband.
If you listen to Wonderful by Stone Temple Pilots and then on Loving the Aliens you'll hear some resembles I think. Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: tomass74 on May 10, 2006, 06:17:06 PM I absolutely love this song. It's Scott and Slash at their best. Easily as good as anything from STP or GN'R. Tell me you're joking. You can't put this song up there with Sweet Child, NR, Don't Cry, or any of the rocking tunes both bands have done. All a matter of opinion buddy... I don't like NR or Don't Cry..... Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: lul on May 10, 2006, 07:08:52 PM it's got keyboards in it.. they are a hard rock band.. they are not allowed to play it live..
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: tomass74 on May 11, 2006, 10:01:36 AM Cool song.? Underrated Slash solo on it.? I think the best song maybe You Got No Right. YGNR is great.. Definately one of the best solos on the album..? I think the solo in YGNR is THE best solo on the album period. I remember listening to it over and over again when I first got Contraband, it just has such power and emotion to it. It's classic Slash. :beer: I'd love to hear more lke that from him on the follow-up. Yeah dude, 40 seconds of sweetness. Who said there are no solos on Contraband??? Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Krispy Kreme on May 11, 2006, 01:45:50 PM I think it is a great song, not the best on the album, but a really strong song. I like it.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: ben9785 on May 21, 2006, 05:44:36 AM this is a really great song i love it...i kind of wore out the whole album but this is the song i still find myself coming back to...fuckin amazing...great melody..great vocal by Scott..
im glad it wasn't released as a single and that it wasn't overplayed or anything like that what i heard is that they never did, and probably won't do, this song live because it is too personal for Scott Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Genesis on May 22, 2006, 09:20:53 AM Really nice song, but for me, u have to be in a really patient mood to listen it at the pace it goes. ;) I prefer You Got No Right.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Malcolm on May 23, 2006, 01:23:20 PM This is one of my faviourite songs to...One of the best off the album
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: JohnMorrison73 on July 29, 2006, 01:51:47 PM i love how slash adds his bluesy solo to this song. its him adding his little 'touch' :hihi:
and for best solo on contraband: DLT Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: mikegiuliana on July 30, 2006, 06:02:55 AM that song rules. It's very different and I really like it..
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: Amroth on July 30, 2006, 06:52:56 PM I love this song. Loving the Alien, You Got No Right and Falling to Pieces are really masterpieces. As for the best VR song, Loving the Alien with Set me Free as a close second. Really feel i can relate to Set me Free some times. Contraband was a great record though slightly underrated. I just hope we'll see more of the "Loving the Alien side" of VR in the future.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: GNVR on July 30, 2006, 07:08:17 PM Loving the Aliens is by far one of the best songs on the album - completely underated.? It's right up there with You Got No Right.? Slash's work reminds everyone why he's the man.? I like that it's the last song on the album - great finishing touch!
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: JDA on July 30, 2006, 11:51:54 PM Great song. Great song.
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: mikegiuliana on July 31, 2006, 04:53:57 AM I really feel if axl had done lta everyone would love it..
Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: tomass74 on July 31, 2006, 07:18:24 AM I really feel if axl had done lta everyone would love it.. I think people love it anyway.... It is definately a favorite over on the VR boards.. Title: Re: Loving the Aliens - Don't you think it's good? Post by: 31illusions on August 04, 2006, 11:03:18 PM I totally love this song. It's my fav on the cd. I feel if it was released as a single it would have went through the roof! This song reminds me of SCOM. It has those really high notes in it, that slash is the only one to ever pull off. Scotts voice is amazing and is very emotional in the chours. His best vocals with the band! That being said, some people say they like YGNR. Well, IMO that is their worst song on the CD. I don't like it. I think i'll stick with LTA..? ? ?LATER, ALL!
