“Viva Las Vengeance” by Panic! At The Disco, under the Fueled by Ramen label, was released by Warner Music last Aug. Producer-songwriters Jake Sinclair, Mike Viola and Butch Walker. There are many, But Brendan Urie’s best line on “Viva Las Vengeance” is from “All By Yourself” – a song about choosing to be different from the-where he sings “three minutes thirty seconds of a rock and roll record is all you need to know, live forever in a day.”īrendan Urie was said to have recorded on an 8-track tape machine to capture a retro vibe for “Viva Las Vengeance.” Which we’ll agree that Urie was able to achieve. But yes, Brendan Urie nicks from the best.Īnd yes, they’re a lark to listen to as well. Which is not to say that Urie lifted directly, only tweaking your ears enough to get you asking, ‘where have I heard that one before?’ And then going his merry way without actually infringing on these greats. Other obvious “tributes” on the new Panic! record is “Say It Louder” which recalls The Police’s “Roxanne,” The Beatles “The End” on “Sugar Soaker,” and Queen on “Something About Maggie.” The title itself is also an echo of the old (British rock band) Ardent song “God Gave Rock And Roll To You” that was later popularized by a cover from KISS. Check out the piano work that seems to play off and bend on “Bohemian Rhapsody” even as the guitar solo is Brian May-inspired. On “God Killed Rock And Roll,” Brendan Urie looks to Queen for song’s inspirations. Panic at the disco Brendan Urie official album art Here Urie intones, “We are the electric angels / we are the six-string queens / we are the new Dead Kennedys / in the land of the brave / home of the freaks.” Urie/Panic! borrows heavily from Thin Lizzy (“Boys Are Back In Town”) on how he approaches the verses for “Star Spangled Banger” as he sings about his younger days, perhaps when playing in a band was still just a dream.

And yeah, Urie’s really pushing his vocals as he sings “who’s going to drive me tonight / who’s going to argue til they win the fight? / you’re the only one who knows how to operate my heavy machinery.” More retro sounds ensue in “Don’t Let The Lights Go Out” as we’re reminded of mid 70’s pop balladry (a’la ABBA and Elton John). Urie/Panic! again makes another nod to The Clash on the intro of “Middle Of A Breakup” but the rest is emo-pop as Urie intones the hook line “make-up sex in the middle of a breakup” in that high register vocals of his. But everything else that follows is the pop imbued punk and rock stylings that we’ve long heard from Urie. Shinedown’s ‘Planet Zero’ is ready for a spin.Opening with the lively title track “Viva Las Vengeance,” Urie gives a nod to original punk OG’s with those clanging chords that’s reminiscent of The Clash (“Career Opportunities”). I like getting the album before it is officially released. God’s glory is proclaimed by the sun and stars, their unspoken truth is being revealed to the world. Scripture tells us that if mankind fails to praise Him like we should then nature itself will cry out. He excels in working with the everyday and the commonplace.

But people, we have been given a gift, we have been given a road. version only covers the time frame of 1974-1980, the make-up years with the four original members. Aquell 24 de novembre de 1991 la desaparició del líder de Queen a causa de la SIDA va eclipsar la notícia de la mort de Carr, però la lletra de God Gave Rock and Roll to You, com si es tractés del seu epitafi sempre el recordarà: I know life sometimes can get tough and I know life sometimes can be a drag. I don’t think it was ever certified Gold or anything like that because let’s be honest, this is not a good greatest hits package. This one was released on Apand it only hit #77 on the Billboard Charts. Tono Versión 1 C Em Am G GOD GAVE ROCK AND ROLL TO YOU, GAVE ROCK AND ROLL TO YOU, F Eb Bb C PUT IT IN THE SOUL OF EVERYONE. Kiss in 1997 was still touring the Alive / Worldwide Tour and to keep pushing out product for cash grabs, they dumped on us a total worthless pile of dung called ‘Greatest Kiss’.

Sadly, the 50th review is this pile of crap. It has low energy and is not very danceable with a time signature of 4 beats per bar. The track runs 6 minutes and 44 seconds long with a G key and a major mode. It can also be used half-time at 72 BPM or double-time at 288 BPM.
