I like peanut butter. And I like omelets. But I do not like peanut butter omelets. I like Jack Nicholson. I like Natalie Portman. I do not like them as romantic leads in a movie. I like cooking. I like pets. I do not like cooking my pets. I haven't experienced any of these things. Because I am pretty sure I wouldn't like them. Which is my same apprehension from listening to the new Chris Cornell R&B album. Sure, the Billie Jean cover was pretty cool. But that was a novelty. Trying to make a whole album of novelty songs...then you're make a Weird Al record.

Buy Chris Cornell's new R&B album, Scream. Only $2.99! You can't even get a ringtone for that cheap!!
The Chris Cornell album takes a spin or two to warm up to. There's actually a lot of pretty cool stuff on the album. The biggest gripe I have is that there's not much give & take between Cornell & Timbaland, which is what creates the awkward moments on the album.
ReplyDeleteNot that I've listened to everything Cornell has ever done, but I like his version of "Ave Maria," which is on a Christmas comp CD.
