Gossip - Music For Men - 2009



Maybe not. Still not even sure what the term means. What I heard sounds like what I think it should mean, and I don't get to put much here, so here we are. Three (or 4?) piece from Arkansas with their 4th studio release. Making their mark in the U.K. with Standing In The Way Of Control off of their previous effort, which I grew to like, and that may happen here, but as of now, nothing on here grabbed me. In fact some of it pushed me away.

I do not like this album.


Favorite Track - For Keeps

It's just emotion
I've never had
Emotion
Is makin' me sad
Emotion
Tying me down
It's just emotion
Keeps me hangin' around

It's the he, e, eeeat
Calling Me, e, eee
It's the Ne, e, e, eed
To be Freeeeeeee
Yeah, yeah

I don't wanna play for keeps anymore
This time I'm for real
I've heard it once
I've heard it all before
And now our lips are sealed
Told you I'd never lie to you
You want something different
Something new, oooooh
I don't wanna play for keeps anymore
And there is nothing you can dooooooooooooo

Disappointment
Is the final word
Devotion
Is back breaking work
Emotions
Are irrational
But to ignore them
Would be critical

It's the he, he, eeeat
Calling Me, e, eee
It's the Ne, e, eeed
To be Freeeeee
Yeah, yeah

I don't wanna play for keeps anymore
This time I'm for real
I've heard it once
I've heard it all before
And now our lips are sealed
Told you I'd never lie to you
You want something different
Something new, ooooooh
I don't wanna play for keeps anymore
And there is nothing you can dooooooooooooo

Give me something I, I, I, I, I
Can depend on I, I, I
Give me something I, I, I, I, I
Can rely on
Yeah

I don't wanna play for keeps anymore
This time I'm for real
I've heard it once
I've heard it all before
And now our lips are sealed

I don't wanna play for keeps
I don't wanna play for keeps
I don't wanna play for keeps any more
And there is nothing you can do
