Thanks to Nick for finding this.

I am really looking forward to the album so it's great to hear a little bit of what will be on it.

http://www.amazon.de/Alive-Ed-Kowalczyk/dp...97&sr=8-2-spell

To me Ed's on Soul Whispers sounds like it did way back. I think I will enjoy this album very much.

Samples were just added on Amazon.com. These samples are different than the Dutch site.

I love Ed's voice. And I am one of the few people who really loves SFBM. I still enjoy listening to it. I find it very uplifting. But honestly, after my first listen to these clips, I am really disappointed. I really like Grace and I thought that it showed a lot of potential for this album. But after listening to these clips, I really regret pre-ordering the album. Especially because that means that I supported Ed and encouraged this nonsense. I will withhold a full judgment until I get to listen to the album a few times, and I hope it appeals to me more like SFBM, but these clips left me horrified. They sound like terrible songs.

So the one song that you actually heard in full, you really like. I say maybe you should give the album a chance before passing judgement.

I agree, listen to the whole thing. That way you can pass judgement with having to hear people say "well you need to listen to the whole thing!".

It does bother me when people rip an album without paying for it. It just basically rips off an artist.

Sort of like how the artist rips off his friends? hehe.gif

Don't worry yourself over it, I got no enjoyment out of it, and had I paid for it then I would have been the one being ripped off. If it makes you feel any better it certainly won't be getting played anymore.

Self-justification never works.

It aint justifying it to myself, I'm trying to make Nicholas feel better about it. I downloaded it for free and I don't have to feel guilty about it cos ... I don't.

That's some real solid reasoning.

I'm not trying to reason, lol you just don't get it.
I downloaded it for free because I don't think it's worth paying for, I won't be listening to it any more because I just don't like it. If I ended up really liking it I'd probably buy it or if I somewhat liked it I'd probably just not delete it and I'm sure Ed will somehow survive by not getting some more money from me.
I'll probably download the TGF album if it leaks early too. If I really like it then I'll buy it, I got a feeling based on what I've heard that I will really like it. I ain't trying to hide anything.

Although TGF might be different because I'll be in America when it's released so I could make it my first album bought in the US.
