Whatever reviews may have stated, it is a classic to me and many others.
If you don't like it, ignore it. Berating us retards that do enjoy it
serves no purpose. And I don't care if Satan paid them double, even. My
ears rule my preferences in music, nothing else. The audience buys it
because they derive pleasure. Makes sense to me.
'They don't care this is a step back musicwize.'
'Only "Impact" lived up to the old standard.'
Hmmm....
I guess it just boils down to this: if they aren't doing music to please
you, then you must not be paying them enough. Or maybe they are those
rebellious types who do it for THEMSELVES. Heaven forbid.
