That's brilliant, End! Pity it wasn't intended as a brilliant pun by the poster!
Yeah, I hate you both. (I hope you don't think I am joking.)
And really, Patton miss spells words all the time in his posts...do you be a b**** to him Maria? No you don't. And it isn't that big of a deal! This is a laid back forum. It isn't something that has to be perfect. It's getting really old, really fast. You must be one of the "Bully people" that picks out only certain people.
This is really the first time I have been really ticked off on this forum. It's just to the point where it is really old. But of course you have NEVER spelled a word wrong. You and The End are perfect.

It was a piece of serendipidity, which The End caught on to.
And when I said it was a pity that it hadn't been intended by the original poster, I meant just that. It was a pity. When I make a pun or other sort of word play unintentionally, I'm always a bit peeved when someone else sees it.

Hi Sarah,
I would never correct anyone's spelling on here - especially seeing as I'm crap and can't spell check my own entries! I just thought it was a very humourous slip - I wasn't laughing at your mistake, I was laughing at the word "whine" used to describe people maturing.
I'm really sorry if I offended or upset you - it was NEVER my intention. I honestly am sorry.
ehhh I'm not mad at you. I think its funny as well thats why I havn't corrected it. I'm just getting irritated.
Funny thing is.... is my advisor was standing behind me when I wrote it and he didn't catch it. But then we were both talking about the conference too. (wrote it 3 minutes before I left)

I think Gone Troppo is a mediocre album from George, but not as good as 33 1/3, this solo album is almost invisible, to Beatles fans & non-Beatles fans, cynically speaking.
I want you, I want you so bad babe. I want you, I want you so bad. It's driving me mad, it's driving me mad.

Gone Troppo is better than all of the other Dark Horse albums, excluding Cloud Nine. Half of it is really great, which is more than I can say for some of his other albums.

Rowdy, I'm coming to see we don't see eye to eye on lots of solo albums (though we both enjoy WILD LIFE!)
I think GONE TROPPO is hands down George's least album. I like the song Dream Away best, because it was from TIME BANDITS which was in the theatres around then.
other decent songs...
Wake Up My Love That's the Way It Goes Gone Troppo
Those four songs you mentioned are my favorites from the album, and yes "Dream Away" is undoubtedly the best.....fantastic melody. None of the other Dark Horse albums that came out before Troppo have four tracks of that caliber in my opinion...
"Only people know just how to talk to people. Only people know just how to change the world."
Here are some tracks I liked from other Dark Horse albums:
SOMEWHERE IN ENGLAND: Blood From a Clone Unconsciousness Rules Life Itself All Those Years Ago Baltimore Oriole Teardrops
GEORGE HARRISON: Love Comes to Everyone Not Guilty Here Comes the Moon Soft-Hearted Hana Blow Away Faster Dark Sweet Lady Your Love Is Forever Soft Touch If You Believe * (HEY! That's the entire album! )
THIRTY THREE & 1/3: Woman Don't You Cry For Me Dear One Beautiful Girl This Song See Yourself It's What You Value True Love Crackerbox Palace
As I typed these titles I thought to myself, "oh come on, Rowdy - there are some great Harrisongs here!" You really don't think any of those match GONE TROPPO's?

Although George is my favorite Beatle, I have to admit, this is his worst album. The songs are not really good, and for my taste, I don't like the synth sounds on it. But I own the vinyl version as well as the new remastered version of the dark horse box set. And I#m glad to have it, because this album is even much better, than a lot of other stuff in the music market, 'cause it's one from George.

Gone Troppo is crap compared to Cloud Nine by a long shot but it has a great album cover.

'Gone Troppo' is bad. I think its easily George's worst. Its got a few decent tunes as mentioned before (actually Wake Up My Love is a favorite), but all in all its pretty weak. 'Thats The Way It Goes' is so bad that its almost laughable. Sounds like a cross between The Beach Boys and the Oak Ridge Boys. Seriously Fried, dont judge a book by its cover (the cover on this album is its strongest point). Buy the other albums first if you dont have them yet.
"That's the the way it goes" is great. I have thought about buying the cd because of this song. The song could have been on Cloud 9 or his 79 album. Great song. Not dated like Wake up either.
