Very nice to see that new material is being released even though it's just separate songs. I guess setting up the organization to put out a complete physical album is not realisic option anymore for Richie, which is sad after hearing, for example, clear reference to a new album one year ago.

I liked the new song and the chorus was actually quite memorable, but I don't like what Bob Rock does with the production these days. The same problem than with RSO songs, the end result just sounds too messy although the song itself would be a good composition. Well, maybe it is because my musical taste has been left to previous decades 😁

From the new songs, I really look forward to hearing Songs that wrote my life. The one live performance of the song made an impression on me and I really wanna hear more of it!

He's not even a good musician nor producer, but just a human louse that attached itself to Jon and destroyed the band. And I always wonder what the few albums would sound like without his input - with Richie and a good producer (Erik Martensson, Danny Rexon, Hannes Braun, Jona Tee... I can go on with another 100 names of people who know what a good rock record should sound like) on board...
lol,

as talented as they might be, I'm pretty sure jon has no idea who Erik and Jona even are.

Smile I Pray - Richie Sambora - Lyrics

It's called life
Yeah I'm feeling for the holes
all my yeses turn to no
You can see right through me
LIFE
is a cruel, cruel joke
while its trying to make you laugh
you life is hanging by a rope
No matter what God your talking to
what God your talking to
what God your lying to
Your two lies from the truth

I got no alibis
I'm way to old to lie
I pray, I pray, I pray
That we will rise above
In the name of love
I pray, I pray, I pray
Take me higher
Take me higher
Tell those dirty clouds
Out sun keeps shining down
But I pray, I pray, I pray

Its right now
Yeah i hope we realize that we're almost paralyzed
from what we believe in
Why
Hope heavens ship comes sailing in
Before my skin keeps wearing thin
this is a time for seeing
i wont apologize
for the way i feel inside
like we landed in the twilight zone
we can't make our way back home

I got no alibis
I'm way too old to lie
I pray, I pray, I pray
That we will rise above
In the name of love
I pray, I pray, I pray
Take me higher
Take me higher
Tell those dirty clouds
Out sun keeps shining down
But I pray, I pray, I pray

So many people just spend their days
just holier than thou
if you conjure up compassion
Then we can work it out

[Voicebox solo]

No matter what God your talking to
what God your talking to
what God your lying to
Your two lies from the truth

No matter what God your talking to
what God your talking to
what God your lying to
Your two lies from the truth

I got no alabis
Im way too old to lie
I pray, I pray, I pray
I'm trying to believe
I'm trying to receive
Take me higher
Take me higher
Tell those dirty clouds
Out sun keeps shining down
But I pray, I pray, I pray
I'm trying to believe
I'm trying to receive
Take me higher
Take me higher - higher
I pray, I pray, I pray
Take me higher - higher
I'm trying to believe
I'm trying to receive.... repeats.


-This is what I hear anyway, might have made some mistakes.
To me there seems to quite a bit to read into here.
