I was just remembering when MSOTS came out and Billy had told the band they would make a metal album but the first one was gonna be pop. I hate MSOTS by the way HATE IT. It is an embarassment. Anyways these two songs really give me a Zwan album. What do you guys think. Maybe it's the lyrics? I just cannot connect to Come on lets go. The lamest lyrics of all time.

BTL looks like the only "dancefloor" song in Zeitgeist, quite Zwany, in fact. But (CO)LG might remind you just cause of some Zwan songnames, it's not that poppy imo.

Those songs may be reminiscent of Zwan's sound, but the rest of Zeitgeist has a lot of throw backs to '70s / '80s metal.

So what are you complaining about?

I'm just saying what the fuck is (co)lg about? Go where? just like Zwan's shitty songs, these have no point. Bring the fucking light? To do what? I expected way more meaning.

Bring the Light just about got on my last nerve with the needless and annoying repetition of the title within the song. Really, Billy, we get the point.

Come on (Let's Go) wasn't as bad, but I can see where you're coming from when you say it doesn't go anywhere.

Once one has brought the Light do so and so.??
Sorry that im being defensive about Bring the Light, i really like it :) '

although... i agree with you on Come On. I just hear a weezer song that doesn't really show Billy's song writing abilities. not excluding it from my playlist though.

Quite easily.

I prefer Mary Star of the Sea (the song) over Jesus, I.

While I know a lot of people are going to take the opportunity to laugh at this, I have to remind everyone that it was 7 years ago that Machina was released. So, in my opinion, I'd have to agree with this statement 100%.

I also agree with whoever said that CO(LG) is reminiscent of Zwan solely because of the song title... I didn't think of Zwan when I heard it, or BTL, or any part of Zeitgeist, for that matter.

I can't tell if it's just because they both have the word "light" in the song title, but I always think of the song "What Light" off the new Wilco album whenever I hear this song. I think I might actually grow to like BTL if I could get that other song out of my head.

We get it, you like Zwan...
I think Zwan was worse than TFE, personally. And I think Zeitgeist is better than both of them.... Machina II>Zeitgeist>Machina>TFE>Mary Star

I agree that COLG and especially Bring the Light have a Zwan-y touch, but they wouldn't have fit well on MSOTS. I'm not sure they fit well on Zeitgeist either, but whatever.
