I don't understand that much the buzz surrounding photograph. Good but not great. Clearly not on SS because the drum and strumming patterns are a bit like Rattlesnake, and I really prefer track no1 on SS.

Lakini's Juice was THE choice to make. Great departure from Lightning Crashes. "Remember when we rocked I alone? Now we can rock even more!" Loud on speakers this song is still memorable. What a tone by CT in that one.

What would have happened if Live decided to give Heropsychodreamer instead of Freaks at the time. Another solid rock song. Then after you can please the ladies with Turn my head. Love Freaks, but not as a single.

I would prefer any good new music instead of Hold me up. Still a great song!

Me too. A 25th anniversary special album in 2017, and a studio album in 2018. I'm greedy though.

Seems like a high possibility.

Hard to choose Live singles. Need to have freaks as a single because that video was sweet, and the lyrics were Live's most disturbing. TDTH squandered it's music video potential. TRL ruled in 1999, and although TDC hit #9 on TRL upon release, it was only because tens of thousands of live fans phoned in. The mainstream audience needed a much more entertaining video, not just Live standing there doing nothing with a bunch of extras.

TDC reached number 2 in the Mainstream Rock Chart - it was second to Creed's Higher.

Lakini's Juice is very overestimated by fans. It is a good song but not as great as it is presented to be. Live chose to release Freaks and Turn my head as singles and not Insomnia, Hero, Gas hed, and Ghost. I am wondering what they were thinking.

LJ is awesome. Ghost, on the other hand, is one of the most over hypedin songs by Live fans. It's a skip IMO.

Ghost is excellent! Different people like different songs. That's beauty of it.

So, i just listened to TDTH all the way through for the first time in years and i figured out why it's not one of my favorites. The vocals are too loud, the guitars on the album are like an after thought. It is really too bright sounding, not enough grit and seems to be too polished. Don't get me wrong, even though it's not one of my favorite LIVE albums it's still better than most other bands best efforts.

I think you'll find Love Shines had much more disturbing lyrics.

You're talking about the general public. If you don't think they're dumb just look at how many of them vote for Trump tomorrow.

Like I said ....
