Tony Cartmill Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Jump Man now owes a royalty to EC because ABM was playing as background to his commercial... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seattlesteve Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I don't want EC to go dark on his posts, it's happened before when hassled, he is very articulate and combined with his tremendous insight, it makes for a great read. Also IMHO I think he has a great sense of humor.Tip for Eric: Writing a long post? Start composing in Word. You can save, rearrange, etc. When done, THEN, highlight, right click, copy, and paste here. Allows you to write half a post, save and think about it, prior to submission. I often compose in Word, then move it, less accidents ;-)Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnniekNY Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Lew, dahling...remember how we met at Kathy and Bernie's and the first thing you said was how I smacked you down one time on some subject??? I still don't remember what it was BUT the next time I see you I will bring up the ass kissing comments and you don't want to know what I am going to do with the giant chapstick I will be carrying JUST FOR YOU....

Tom Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 http://www.tmz.com/2007/05/08/kelly-to-clive-shove-it/ Kelly told Clive to shove it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspbernie Posted May 9, 2007 Author Share Posted May 9, 2007 Big problem for Kelly! Clive will not do anything to support the album and it will tank, proving him right. I am afraid that this is a sad Catch 22.Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostControl Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I hope that things have changed a bit since the 70s. Now with the Internet, Kelly might get a following by posting her music and videos to places where people can access them. I certainly hope so.Just because Clive won't put a big wad of cash up to promote it doesn't mean she won't sell. She's got a huge following, and as she's already sold albums, people will get it just to compare to her prior work.At least I hope that's what will happen for Kelly's sake. Clive shouldn't be allowed to be such a major class ass and always be right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollies65 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 From listening to that clip I'd say Clive still has his ear....I assume Kelly is singing what she thinks is the best track....not so great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raspathens Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I agree with hollies65, that clip sounded as if it's been done a million times before. Nothing original. A very small melodic hook in there but it doesn't come close to saving it. Clive's right about this one. That's the price for turning out sub-par material. I liked her last single.

Paulie Mississippi Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Maybe all of us who think Clive is a ba%TARD shoud rush out and support Kelly.No... wait... he wins that way too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnniekNY Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 People had a little blurb about Kelly's upcoming album: under hot downloads"Kelly Clarkson rocks out as a woman scorned on the blistering "Never Again" from her upcoming CD MY December"So does that mean it's definitely coming out and could all this hype be a load of BS??Negative attention is still attention...

Don_Krider Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 There's an interesting interview of Clive Davis that reporter Mike Wallace did for CBS-TV's "60 Minutes" in 2004 at http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/02/06/60minutes/main598488.shtml Don Krider http://www.epinions.com/user-don_krider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvin Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 According to Billboard, the album is coming out in July: http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003582102 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulie Mississippi Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 One thing I've found is that Idol fans are sheep enough that Kelly's album can S U C K and it will still debut at #1. Now if it does indeed S U C K then it may not have the staying power of a Daugherty or a Carry Underwood (or even Kelly's first album)... but I expect huge initial sales.

Brian Mac Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 It sounds to me like she is doing sort of a "You Ought to Know" type thing. Kind of cool. It Rocks. She's taking chances. I like it.Let's all remember that Clive hated Tonight Your Mine and refused to promote it. But he liked Change of Heart which was Eric totally giving up.

AnniekNY Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Hey Brian Mac - Lew just says exactly what he means...he thinks that there are several of us who wouldn't dream of saying a critical word to Eric or the band or Bernie and Kathy. He's entitled to his opinion, as is everyone else who posts. I think Tommy would agree with me that Lew can be blunt at times!! :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMMY TUNES Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Correct AnniekNY, Blunt,sincere, hysterical, creative...informed. A lot of things but definitely no one would call him a suck-up. He's probably been called an idiot before Brian Mac did but they were wrong too. One more thing you can call Lew Bundles and that's loyal. I am fortunate enough to call him friend.

hollies65 Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 I've listened to that clip 4 or 5 times....If that's the hit...absolutely nothing special about it at all.So she's co writing....who said she was a writer....the contest she won was for her pipes...not for being a tunesmith. Just my opinion of course but that's a dime a dozen song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollies65 Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 May I add that this song is so derivative of Alanis's 'You Oughta Know' with of course none of that songs originality or HOOKS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
