in my head 'I Want It That Way' syncs up or somehow segues with 'True' by Spandau Ballet

I've always thought "I Want It That Way," as with every other Backstreet Boys song I heard against my will at the time, was crap. I did hear "Quit Playing Games With My Heart" on a playlist today, though, and I have to say it sounded kinda pretty.

"i want it that way" is a quality tune

it's a ripoff of "Atlantic City" by Springsteen

"no scrubs" is another song that i've just heard too many damn times. it's good, though.

i wasn't feeling "windowlicker" at the time, seemed like a hastily made track he rushed out to appease Sire records' wish for him to be the next Fatboy Slim or something.

maybe not hastily made... it just kind of sounds dumbed down and smoothed out in a way.. like the suits made him simplify it for the masses. *blows dust off tin foil hat*

around these parts "Deceptacon" is only known through Tiga's DJ-Kicks CD

It's a jam, I can't deny

I love the production/sound of that sigur ros album but the vocals... Not so much. Wish they would spend more time rocking out.

It's a good album. The second half is gorgeous. Never cared for anything that came after.

This is the first track I ever heard by them, and I was always disappointed they never really rocked out as much as this on their other songs
