I'm not seeing the controversy. I think this is a valid point of view.

I concur. "More Than a Feeling" is one of the worst songs of all-time, regardless of how impressive the production was.

man, i HATED that band when they first appeared. i said to a friend "this sounds like everything i've ever heard." i used to take great pleasure in singing Stop! In The Name Of Love" to the instrumental bridge in, i think it was "Don't Look Back"?

I'm not a fan but I was really impressed when I learned Tom Scholz recorded most of that shit himself in a basement. That's pretty fucking hardcore in 1975.

He really is an audio wizard with recording guitars, and also rused the corporate bean-counters in doing so.

Peace of Mind's opening riff is glaringly better than anything in More Than A Feeling

Oooooo, Oooooooo
OOoooo, Oooooo

When I was younger
I though I could stand
on my own
It wasn't easy
I stood like a man made of stone
But there was something about you (I want you to know)
It brought a change over me (and it's starting to show)
I've got this feeling inside
Got to have you, have you
Ain't no good to hide

It isn't easy
to show
What I'm feeling inside girl
It isn't easy
to know
When you believe in a man like me

When I get angry
I say things I don't wanna say
I really mean it
I don't want to leave you this way
I couldn't help my reaction ( I want you to know)
I lose control over you ( I just want you to know)
I've got this feeling inside
Got to have you, have you,
Ain't no good to hide

It isn't easy
to show
what I'm feeling inside, girl
It isn't easy
to know
to believe in a man like me
Like me
Like me
I got-ta got-ta have you
