The Effect (apparently feat. Steve Perry) - It Could Have Been You

[Captain Cowardly]

Sharing because I didn't want to be the only person who suffered through this steaming pile of dogshit.

Apparently it's "with Steve Perry" but I think he's just one of those backing vocals buried in effects.

I guess the singer isn't very good and that's why he's auto-tuned out the arse with effects over everything?

Everything about this is shockingly bad.

I'll end on a positive and say thank god Steve Maggioria has distanced himself from this.

I think Perry is the second voice in a few places... not sure. But yeah, the "w/Steve Perry" is overstating things SIGNIFICANTLY.

I liked some of the previously-released singles, but this one is one of the weaker efforts IMO.

The logo is cool. Somehow.

And somehow not.

Okay, I listened to the track, becausec I read Steve Perry (and not your text). Then the song didn't grab me at all. Then I read the rest. Then I was reassured. Then I skipped.

Interesting song choice as far as covering Journey, but they likely wanted to go with a lesser known track.   I'm not a fan of the vocal effects nor the guitar tone.  It's a skip for me, but not as bad as I was expecting after reading the prior comments.

Not really something that fully appeals to me, but I certainly don't see it as dogshit. If it came on the radio (not that I listen to radio) I certainly would not turn it off or skip it on a playlist.

shame they decided to do this, as a cover seems to detracting from the momentum they gained with their first 3 excellent singles.
