I love it! Keith's vocals sound just as good as they did in Talk is Cheap or Main Offender (to me, anyway). Love the guitar too. The release date is nice because it helps soften the blow of starting grade 10 in September.
you're gonna need a little more than that to soften the blow of grade 11, I'm afraid to say
Oh I don't doubt it...luckily grade 11 is the last year I have to do math to graduate. Math is my worst subject, so let's just say I'm not planning on doing pre-calculus
i feel ya, i did data management in g. 12 just because it was easy and i needed the grades...
back on topic,
As for the song, I agree with most of you- typical keith, sounds a lot like start me up (in terms of repetitive chorus/ guitar lick) which is one of my least favourite Stones songs so I can't say that I love it. Mostly I am just glad that Keef is inspired and making new music. Even if it's not as amazing as stuff he's done in the past, I think it's healthy for his creative juices to keep flowing and it probably keeps him at his creative peak onstage also.
The thing is critics, if you don't get it, you don't get it. If you don't hear it or feel it, you wont understand it.
Music can not be explained, you cant intellectualise or theorise it. Its not for train spotters.
I don't and cant, hear or understand Rap.
But i would not criticize something i don't understand. Stick to what you love, and let people love what they love.
Believe it or not this is rock and roll. Ask Chuck Berry or Jerry lee lewis, you either want to get up and get your air guitar out, or you don't.

Definitely Keith! Can't wait for the album.
Elements of You Got it Made, Eileen, One More Shot, and Can't You Hear Me Knocking (middle guitar break right before sax comes in on CYHMK).

the only thing i said in the way of criticizing it was "not as amazing as in the past" and I just mean that based on general consensus. That by no means translates to "bad", and just because I don't personally like it as much as other things that he's done doesn't mean I proclaim it to be "bad".

Man every time I see this thread title I can't help but think of this Lowell George tune. Would have loved to hear Keith singing this one actually.

Sounds like an outtake from some earlier sessions. Really nice to hear something "new" but hardly a great song, unfortunately - Keith by the numbers. Will listen to it willingly, will buy the album, will treasure it, but let's be honest - not a great song.

I listened 3 times,then went down for a nap (kip).
I woke up with 'One More Shot' going round my head.

Same here lol. Hope one more shot is the next track on the album after Trouble.
I'm curious to Keith's version of One More Shot. Jagger soo did not want to sing it live. It showed. Keith's songs get under your skin in a very subtle way.
They take more time before they connect but when they do Arr you never tire of them.

Keith by the numbers? That's a blessing to us.

the version on youtube is longer than the other one and the mix seems different.
and the backing vocals remind me of TOO TIGHT off Bridges

Trouble
Just because you find yourself off the streets again
That don’t mean that I can't help you or I ain't your friend (fixed per GL)
Baby trouble is your middle name
Your trouble is that that’s your game
Now you are out of circulation out of reach and out of touch
Let me keep you in the loop though I can’t tell you much
Baby trouble is your middle name
The trouble is that that’s your game
Just because I can’t see you see you anymore
That’s because honey you’re doing 2-4
Baby trouble is your middle name
The trouble is that that’s your game
Even though you are still inside I could get you off the hook
But I know if I get you out I won’t get a second look
Baby trouble is your middle name
The trouble is that that’s your game
Too much trouble
Too much trouble

this could be a song addressed to keith's inner demons, including his propensity for addiction.

PS edit: You should understand rap (no capital R) very well I think. A normal person like you and I is not interessted to air rap all these lousy/agressive etc. lines to a liveless beat. Rap died with The Sugar Hill Gang in 1979 or so.
That's absurd. Hip Hop only started getting interesting in 1988, and most older hip hop fans would say it lost its way in 1997. But there's still been good stuff since then. Hip hop is as varied as rock. Too dismiss it like this is like dismissing rock n roll because you don't like thrash metal.
