NCOE was recorded early-ish in the process and has always been one of the songs under consideration for the album. When they decided to use it, they added some final touches to it. I am almost certain NCOE was one of the last 2 tracks recorded and recorded in 2012. A full recording session, not just some finishing touches. I also do not recall Adam ever mentioning the possible collab with Bruno until the end of 2011. Am I forgetting some interview where he said this was recorded and/or under consider early in the process? It is certainly possible. I am not able to keep up with him.  Not early in the entire album process but well before any hint of the March 20 date changing. It was played for the UK press peeps when he first went over there. It may have been mentioned at the press day were Byron Cooke talked to him but I don't remember for sure. But long before there was any question of the 3/20 delay the song was around, had rough mixes played for journalist but Adam wasn't sure it would make the album. He said at that point that the track list was not nailed down and that there were several songs jockeying for spots on the album. Since he later said they decided to take the time to finish up a couple of nearly there tracks I figure he just wasn't at that point satisfied with it. But he was undeniably excited about Dr. Luke on production and going in to the studio with Bruno. And release the hounds!!!!!!!!

I've never said any song Adam hasn't written on "Trespassing" or FYE is subpar, but going strictly by what resonates with me almost three years later from FYE (after traveling through thick, thin and hearing ever version known to man during GNT), the songs that I still love the best are "Down the Rabbit Hole," "Voodoo," "Soaked," "FYE," and "Broken Open." Of course, Soaked and FYE were not written by Adam and the others were. I have actually never really cared for "Pick You Up," (though others love it) despite it being written by Adam and Weezer (who I have tremendous respect for). I never really cared for "Aftermath" until it was performed live. I'm going purely from visceral reaction to the songs when I decide which I LOVE and what I only like on "Trespassing." I LOVE pretty much all the songs Adam wrote on AND "Underneath." I enjoy BTIKM and Naked Love, but don't feel that certain something – that je ne sais quoi – that I do get from Adam's songs. I did not think NCOE was a great song initially, but felt Adam could sing the shit out of it. He does. With the new production, I pretty much love it right now. This is not loyalty, but just expression exactly how the songs resonate with me . I like songs that are about something or that tell a story or evoke emotion or imagery. This is where I generally find NCOE not as strong as the others, but the energy and incredible vocal make up for it. . The difference is we are talking about what is right for radio, not what song evokes strong emotions in the fans. That's where I think hard-core stans miss the purpose of a radio single. A single is not selected for the fans, it is selected for the masses. Actually I take issue with this. Most of us? Generalizations are helpful only up to a point. I like Never Close Our Eyes very much on its own merits. I'm not supporting it as some generic song for the radio-listening masses who don't know any better. Look, I absolutely expect/respect/encourage varying opinions on songs but I'm starting to be a little sensitive to the implication of some posts here that anyone who actually likes NCOE isn't as serious a fan and/or has pedestrian or unsophisticated taste in music. Really? And, to show people do react differently, for me NCOE is extremely evocative - not just a good beat. So a heartfelt thank you to everyone who is vigorously supporting NCOE for whatever reason (as I did BTIKM) but let's not assume it has no real supporters outside the Rebecca Black fan club, hmm? |
