Postby MtlLady » Sun May 20, 2007 12:23 am

I just got an email from Amazon.ca this morning to pre-order the CD.

Yeah, like I'm gonna wait. I'll be going to the stores that day!

I think it will likely also be offered via Dennis' web site.

It's still odd that he hasn't said anything about the release on his website. Either as the single or the album.

Here is the link to it on amazon.ca. Not much about it, just a place holder for it right now.

It won't be hard to find as an import.

But ... he's marketing up there first because of the success he's had up there. This isn't hard to understand.

I'll be in Montreal that week and plan on picking it up.

I find that odd too. Maybe they've just haven't gotten to it yet, since it probably has to go through a bunch of people? I'm just thinking out loud here ...

My predictions -

1. Breathe Again - Upbeat pop rocker
2. I Don't Believe - Cynical Dennis
3. Crossing the Rubicon - I just keep thinking of the Journey song Rubicon..
4. Rain - Obligatory ballad?
5. Forgiveness - Inspriational "Show Me The Way" type of number - aimed at former bandmates?
6. Turn of CNN - Visions of Hip Hop Hypocrissy running through my head..
7. Save Me - I just keep thinking of the Fleetwood Mac song by the same name
8. I Believe In You - Obligatory ballad II?
9. Respect Me - A Rocker? AImed at former bandmates?
10 One HUndered Years - already know this
11. This Time - Have not heard but isn't this being played live?

Umm I thought we were told by Dennis that he had EIGHTEEN SONGS completed and we would get FOURTEEN on the new CD?

All this time and 11 songs?

Has the track listing been confirmed?

Got it from an online retailer, so I'd say it's fairly confirmed.

Just because he has 18 tracks in the can doesn't mean they'll all show up. Since it is coming out in Canada first, there's always a chance he'll swap some tracks for the US release later in the year.

Deep song very Floyd sounding

Save me is great also
One line in it I dont agree with I voiced my O
Im waiting to see if its changed,

We really need a Dennis only 100 Years
It was way better than the current version/

Some of you bitch about everything..

Sometimes lesser is better...In fact when it comes to albums that is almost certainly the case.

Its a lesson that Tommy Shaw has yet to learn.

Hey RAJAH did I ASK FOR YOUR F*CKING OPINION? DON'T THINK SO!

WHO SAID I WAS B*TCHING?

Everything that Dennis had told us was that there would be 14 tracks on the CD when it came out IN CANADA, his record company ALSO confirmed that.

So I'm just a little puzzled about 11 songs.

Allan, I hope you're right.. two different track listings for the US and Canada.

Hey, just asking, but are you sure about that? Last I recall reading from Dennis, he had *written* 18 songs, not recorded. And 12 were *expected* to be on the CD (I never heard 14, myself, but 11 is still not 12 in any case) Does any of this sound familiar to anyone else, or am I just insane?

11 songs? 18 songs? 14 songs? Who cares. I will judge for my own self when I hear it. If I think it stinks I will call it a stinker. If he really comes out with some creative stuff instead of the sappy, cornball garbage he has been making, I will be happy to admit that I was wrong in thinking he would never do anything I thought was up to par with his past work. If it's anything like French song, I will not like it.

After he consulted with his committee (Froy), he decided to only release 11 of the 18 he originally planned. He's saving the others for Suzanne's next book.

Crossing the Rubicon is also the title of a book I read on the subject of 9/11.
Let's just say most people would label it a "conspiracy" book. I am not sure if that is what Dennis is referring to. I could also mean a lot of other things.

Turn off CNN sounds like a bash against the mainsteam media. I like that.
Dennis may be tackling some controversial subjects here. That takes balls.

"Crossing the Rubicon" is a popular idiom meaning to go past a point of no return because the river was an ancient boundary between Gaul and Italy. Julius Caesar crossed the river in 49 BC deliberately as an act of war where he is supposed to have said that "the die is cast" and where he would eventually come to power

This is an old expression, used in many different modern contexts.

Dennis has good intentions when taking on these subjects but the end result always seems to be on the cornball side.

BINGO!!

That was the original title of his album but was changed. At first I thought he said it was something with River in the title (I can never remember - LOL), I thought that it meant something to the "River Styx" and Rubicon meaning "The Point of No Return" or something like that. That was MY opinion :)

Do you like songs that are melodic? With great harmonies (a few or more)? His (DDY) old Styx sound that sounds somewhat mixed with Pink Floyd and today's music? If you do, you'll enjoy over 1/2 the album for sure.
