Guest Doyo Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 They played the first minute of this on a rock radio station today and then the djs stopped it and laughed. So I come home and because I must be a masochist, I download the whole song. I have just listened to the whole thing and I think I have suffered permanant brain damage. I like her voice in a lot of her songs, but listening to her cover of this song has scarred me for life. Go download it now and torture yourself. You know you wanna.
Guest The Amazing Rando Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 No thank you. 1) It takes balls to cover Def Leppared 2) The balls Mariah has are in her mouth and are property of a backup dancer 3) It's Mariah F'N Carey...'nuff said.
Guest Lethargic Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 Is there really all that much difference between Def Leppard and Mariah Carey? One shitty pop act covering another.
Guest Youth N Asia Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 The only thing to be sure of is that every word will have 14 more syllables then they're suppose to.
Guest El Satanico Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 So the choice is between Def Leppard and Mariah Carey These aren't very good choices. I don't like the choice I'm making, but I'll take Mariah Carey I guess.
Guest Flyboy Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 The song isn't all that in the first place. Plus, Mariah's vocals are the shit, so I don't see why everyone in such a fit. She will probably do it better.
Guest NoCalMike Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 Mariah Carrey screeches. Singing and Screeching are two different things. Linda Ronstandt, Carly Simon + Karen Carpenter are all way better vocalists than Mariah Carrey.
Guest Choken One Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 Hell... Once she removes the cock outta her mouth... XXXtina out-sings Mariah.
Guest Flyboy Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 Seems as if Choken One and NoCal to remove the earplugs.
Guest Choken One Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 Are we talking MODERN Mariah or Old School Mariah here? That's right MODERN MARIAH...whom just plain sucks and has seen her talent eroded.
Guest SweetNSexyDiva Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 Old school Mariah helped me through my adolescent years...lol. Modern Mariah sucks ass...
Guest JHawk Posted July 2, 2003 Report Posted July 2, 2003 I find Mariah Carey's music to be unlistenable. And sadly, unlike Britney Spears or Shania Twain, I don't even find her music videos watchable enough to make up for it. I'll pass on that one, I think.
Guest SweetNSexyDiva Posted July 7, 2003 Report Posted July 7, 2003 I think it is hilarious how Mariah only likes to be filmed on one side of her face because that side looks better! If you don't believe me, take a good look one day.
Guest Anglesault Posted July 7, 2003 Report Posted July 7, 2003 I don't remember Def Leppard ever being any good anyway
Guest DrTom Posted July 7, 2003 Report Posted July 7, 2003 Philistine. Pyromania and Hysteria were classics in their day, and the band put on a dashed good live act. I saw them three times in 1992 and was very impressed each time.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted July 7, 2003 Report Posted July 7, 2003 Were you drunk? Def Leppard is the true precursor to bands like Saliva and Puddle of Mudd. Cheesy riffs, and vocals more annoying than Billy Corgan at his worst, with lyrics James Hetfield wouldn't be satisfied with. Armageddon it? What the fuck is that? Even the band themselves have admitted that it doesn't mean ANYTHING. It's NOTHING. It's just them decked out like something from Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, squealing like nails on a chalkboard. The beats are terrible, no matter how many arms the guy has. Any other drummer from that era could put one arm behind their back and still play that well with that system of pedals and triggers. It's just..empty gloss. I can't stand that band at all, and they are one of the worst things ever squirted from the foul loins of the eighties.
Guest Choken One Posted July 7, 2003 Report Posted July 7, 2003 Whats wrong with Saliva? There ARE my my guilty pleasure group...
Guest DrTom Posted July 7, 2003 Report Posted July 7, 2003 Were you drunk? Def Leppard is the true precursor to bands like Saliva and Puddle of Mudd. I'm not saying I like them NOW. Ten or so years ago, though, I have to say I did. A couple of their songs are still pretty decent, but I generally just change the station or flip over to the CD player when they come on the radio these days. Doesn't seem to happen much.
Guest Doyo Posted July 8, 2003 Report Posted July 8, 2003 Armageddon it? What the fuck is that? Even the band themselves have admitted that it doesn't mean ANYTHING. It's NOTHING. Well you see back in the 80s there was the cold war between the USA and USSR. This had people worried that nuclear war was going to break out and cause the end of the world AKA Armageddon. So the word "armageddon" was being tossed around a lot and the guys in Def Leppard must have been like "dude, let's write a song about that!" But then they realized that was too complex a subject for them, so they wrote another song about sex and with a play on words "I'm a getting it" becomes "Armageddon It." Pure genius.
