Re: Joe in the Press/Blogs/etc.
That doesn't sound like Eminem singing those verses. We'll see...
I don't like all of the bad words in this song, would never listen to it - the only Eminem songs I've heard have been on the radio, so they're clean. Having said that - he is very talented and very influential. I know it is not most Borderers' style of music, nor mine. However, I do like a couple of his songs from prior years, including "Lose Yourself" which won the Oscar for best original song for a film, beating out songs by U2 and Paul Simon. It also won two Grammys. I also like his more recent song with Rihanna.
I would be interested to read the lyrics of this song as a poem, not listening to him sing it. Or, even listening to a clean version. Anyway, it will be very interesting to see how far this song goes, great timing for the Eagles!

Cursing never bothers me but bad music does.
Here's a link to the lyrics:

It was this small article that said Eminem was singing. However, does a Classic Rock site really know? I sure don't.

I have been told that Eminem is an influential artist and I've even been told he's talented. I do believe he's influential, I just don't understand why. As far the 2nd one.... I just don't see it.
Re: Joe in the Press/Blogs/etc.
So I watched Eminem on Saturday Night Live this weekend to see if he did LBG. He did not, but he did do a song to Billy Squeir's Stroke Me. Somewhere on a Billy Squier fansite, people are moaning, haha. I couldn't understand a word, but I liked the intro (which was just the regular intro to that song).

Analog Man still getting recognition.... I too am glad that I stopped watching TV long ago.

Re: Joe in the Press/Blogs/etc.
Since this horrible Eminem person is insanely rich and popular and it is virtually Joe's song, I'm betting that Joe won't have a problem getting paid.
Re: Joe in the Press/Blogs/etc.
Yeah the Eminem/LBG thing really bothers me. LBG is my favorite of Joe's, and Eminem slaughtered it, let alone trying to use it for his own "lyrics".
Re: Joe in the Press/Blogs/etc.
I'm not even going to listen to it. I trust y'all's judgement. :(
Re: Joe in the Press/Blogs/etc.
OMG...I just listened to it..well not all of it...I couldn't take any more after a short time...This guy is famous?...for what?...turning a classic Joe song into obnoxious racket?...really?...
Re: Joe in the Press/Blogs/etc.
Kids on Twitter are absolutely eating it up. I bet Joe has had his biggest influx of new YOUNG fans this last month since maybe OAG came out. They all know who's song it is. I bet Joe's downloads of LBG has been HUGE since this song came out. I can't stand it. I don't think there's a font big enough to truly express how I feel about this slaughtering of Joe's song. Let's see....
IT SUCKS!!
Nope, nope, not quite big enough. Keep in mind I'm viewing this on 40" monitor. No lie.
