Just how much I hate your car adverts it is on constantly

With a gymuper annoying music

By now it's hard to find any respect left to lose for Waters, but this is such a bad idea, and even worse execution, you'll start to wonder if he's just trolling everybody. But then trolling requires some sense of humour, and since he's behaving like a bitter fascist arse, I doubt that.

Oh, and yes, that snare drum sounds like a dry fart. The St. Anger snare had at least some (weird) character, this one just sounds bad and nothing else. And you shouldn't put your vocals that far up in the mix if you sound like that.

Here's what the "Money" remake sounds like:



I don't understand the new spoken word section, or even why we need a new spoken word section in the first place.

(Though, I have to admit, he does still have a way with words, as some of the poetry in that spoken word section does retain that pig-ugly Waters charm to it.)

Also, can Roger no longer sing? Or does he just think all this old-man-huffing spoken word stuff is cool now?

It could be reduced to its first 3 words and moved to before the song starts.

Which would be a fitting introduction indeed. Utter shit by a egocentric fascist geriatric arsehole. Couldn't be bothered less.

I saw Waters 10+ years ago when he we was doing the entire Wall show, and it was good. Comfortably Numb did have a solo.

But this new shit is truly terrible, like one of those "let's do the old song but slowed down 300% on just a piano" covers they use for teaser trailers of film remakes we don't need. Waters has never had a great voice, but he's not even trying now.

And yet...

Wow, that was so bad. Yes, I’m one of those terrible internet commenters that didn’t watch/listen to the whole thing before forming an opinion, but it was too bad to make it through the whole seven and a half minutes. At least YouTube lets you speed up the playback, but even then it was turgid and plodding

However, to defend Rog for a moment: I too saw him live, relatively recently, touring Is This The Life…., and he could definitely still sing then, and was pretty spritely on stage for a septuagenarian with a huge fender bass around his neck.

[Foozwah]

I listened all the way through and it really didn't get any better. The first 40 seconds gives you pretty much everything you're going to get.

Oh, except in the place of transcendent guitar soloing you get turgid, repetitive, embarrassing additional prose.

Yeah I really don't get it either - I also saw Rog on the "Is This...?" tour and thought he was fucking fantastic - inspirational, even. This is definitely not that.

[KlaxonCow]

Waters has never had a great voice, but he's not even trying now.

That's why I'm asking if he's not able to sing anymore. Like, it's not (just) a snarky insult, it's a genuine question.

Because there's literally no singing in this "Money" re-make at all. Not an inch nor iota anywhere in it that I can hear.

Like, what's that all about?
