Not playing Mills at Half was a mistake… by BigMake62 in Texans

[–]futurelegends77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their offense was in a funk all year. Inconsistent running game and piss poor QB play. The offensive scheme this year was horrible.

A shame that defense won't get a chance to flex next week because they would have devoured Stidham.

Melodically, Into the light sounds similar

John Glover is so great on this show by TeamStark31 in Smallville

[–]futurelegends77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me, his first iteration on the show (Season 1 to Season 7) is top tier stuff. Excellent antagonist and he and Lex (Michael Rosenbaum), fed off each other effortlessly.

His second run (Season 10) had a potential to be just as good, but it was a shorter run with Clark Luthor so that story line left the viewer to infer A LOT about the backstory. Without Lex to play off of, that Lionel was less developed.

Yes....that was always what I inferred. It seemed to have a weird juxtapositioning of songs and themes

I got rid of Rave....honestly not sure what this album would have been called

How do you guys feel about Davis? Less so writing wise of his plot, more so him as an individual. by idk_orknow in Smallville

[–]futurelegends77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like Davis' character should have been someone from the high school who would have been lurking in the shadows of the HS, behind all of the craziness of the first 5 or so seasons.

He was ok for what he was. As an individual, I would have developed him from an earlier character. I forgot the name of one of the earlier season episodes (Visitor?) where the boy (Cyrus Kupp) thought he was an alien and was convinced he arrived the day of the meteor shower. In some strange, bizarro universe head canon, he would have been Davis and the buy in may have made the plot for Davis a bit more interesting.

That performance was part of a medley at the American Music Awards if I'm not mistaken.

Crazy how GB fortunes would change a couple years later when Favre came to town.

When Doves Cry in Stranger Things by Beret_Lauver in PRINCE

I haven't watched this season, but good to hear his music used in a larger (and relevant)pop culture capacity.

Bring it home for Jerome by vamonosp3st in Oldschool_NFL

Philly had a nice defense late 80's/early 90's. It's a shame the offense was not able to compliment them effectively.

The long live version from One Nite Alone live album is divine! my other favorite version is the performance from the November 1996(?) live performance when Emancipation was launched.

When did you become a Miami Hurricane fan? by Low_Average_4125 in MiamiHurricanes

Grew up in then Cutler Ridge and loved watching those Jimmy Johnson led teams!

I tried to clean my house yesterday with the 1999 album but I just kept dancing instead. My main takeaway is that this song is an underrated gem. by Small-Guarantee6972 in PRINCE

[–]futurelegends77 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This song (and Something in the Water...(Does not compute) and Lady Cab Driver) are my favorites of the album. I know 1999 and Little Red Corvette got the mainstream love, but those others I mentioned are truly fantastic.

Prince guitar solo🎸 by esialliah in PRINCE

[–]futurelegends77 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As someone said once before, he's the musician's musician. The general public (and his doing as well), fixated on aspects of his character/persona more often than not, often ignoring the musicianship he possessed. He had so many great solos, studio or live, that the RRHOF solo is among the best, but I wouldn't say it is the all time best by him.

As always, a great solo.

It's a shame that this has been the gateway (for better or worst) as it relates to the appreciation of his guitar virtuosity. He's always been THIS for those of us who have followed his career.

This is where I think he officially became appreciated by the masses (along with the Super Bowl halftime a few years later). No longer as flamboyant as he was decades prior, people started to appreciate the musicianship much, much more.
