N'empêche 28 chansons ont été créées pour cet album! ça le fait!
En + Richie nous parle lui même de solo monstrueux et que ça va bouger!!!
ça me rends optimiste tout ça

Bizarre ces cercles concentriques ms ça a l'air d'être la cover de l'album ...

Merci, j'aime beaucoup! Cela fait penser a des séries de science-fiction un peu comme aux frontières du réel de plus les cercles autour font penser au titre de l'album.

Moi j'aime bien !
- parce que c'est noir et blanc
- parce que c'est
- parce qu'on dirait que BJ vient sauver le genre... musical
- parce que je trouve les jeux de lumière sympas... les cercles de lumière de ce que j'imagine être un grand truc de canalisation () qui se prolongent en qqch de psychédélique
- parce que ça sera un bon support pour faire du graphisme à l'école

J'adore aussi la photo

superbe la cover

Je l'aime bien aussi cette couv, elle est en adéquation avec le titre. Le noir et blanc plus le côté un peu science-fiction (j'ai eu la même impression que toi Emma) me fait penser aux mens in black (ça doit être les lunettes de soleil ) mais contrairement aux MIB là je verrais plutôt les guys venant du futur en sauveurs..........il y a des tas de façons de l'interpréter cette couv et c'est très prometteur en tout cas. Espérons comme dit Mike que le tout soit à la hauteur des promesses Vivement la sortie de l'album !

Jon parle des nouvelles chansons dans le Burrn!

Superman Tonight
This would be the most Boy-Girl song.
There was a girl, I watched her from far away, but I was powerless.
She's like a pinball machine in a way, rolled over many guys.
She's
very beautiful & smart, however, she thought that it would be much
more happy if she could have a little more confidence.
This song is a kind of observation diary. And Im a fly on a wall.

Broken Promise Land
I sing about the state that the personal world collapses. There is a guy I know who has no luck badly.
Everything does not go well, the stock, business, buying and selling of the house, kid's school... He is late 40s.
He works but its not profitable and he does not even enjoy it.
He wants to find his way again (rediscover himself) soon but its not easy.
Its difficult to give up everything you got now and start over again from zero (a brand-new life).
People like him are the chief characters of the story. But its the reality Ive seen.
He left NY and started his new life which was sober in an unknown land.
But he had lived in the era of dreams and hopes in 20s-30s, so it makes him wonder why he is here now.
They are divided into "successful man" and "No successful man" in late 40s.
And they notice the severe reality, that the life he had is much longer than the life he will have ahead.
"What have I really achieved?" I know lots of people who think like that.
Its not too late, but this is a sort of test if we can stay who we are, when we look at ourselves in the mirror.

Happy Now
I wrote this lyrics on the next day of the presidential election.
Are we going to be happy at last? Can we take a break?
"What
would you say if I talk about my dream? You might say just sleep again?
Look at my tired eyes, but at last my life is back.
Maybe I can change something. Hope runs through my vein. I wont back to pain." - the lyrics is like that.
"Pain"
means 8 years till then. "Are we going to be happy at last?" I wrote
this kind of lyrics right after the new President was born.
Its just one year ago. Tell the truth, I was concerned if we really needed to find an answer "Yes" or "No".
But its not timely. Now its time to be judged if the promises were real thing.

Fast Cars
This is also about me. I took a holiday with Richie in spring. Desmond Child was also there,
We're
on the beach in Saint Barts island & talked about similar subject
like now, "What is the legend?　Is it to let go? Or is it to make?"
The
story is there're drivers who always follow taillights, on the other
hand, there're ppl who drive at their pace & go their own way.
I mean, lets go on our own roads forever! In this album, there are lots of similar themes as I hate to follow someone.
I at last got a position to be able to say like that, but so many people are stuck in the same trap, they are scared of change.

Thorn In My Side
This is the song that I wrote with Richie in the beginning. I wrote it almost before I met him.
I want something worthwhile after I wake up every morning. I got here with such a long career, still Im not satisfied,
I want to be bigger and work more. I want to complain to guys who complain.
I
just live my life in the way I am everyday, though. I sometimes have to
accept the reality, such as wrinkles around my eyes. LOL!
The thorn is a kind of motivation.
