Tim, responding to your points in your first post:

-Did I Say That is not good at all

I disagree. It's not Meat's best work, but it still is very good in my opinion. I would say that it is probably one of Meat's best "non-Jim" songs.

-The Video, of what i've heard, is crap

I haven't seen the video. I don't think one has even been made or completed yet. All that I have heard is that DIST is the theme music for a German television show or something like that. Apparently the director of the music video has also directed music videos for Korn, and there is a picture of James Michael with Meat on James Michael taken at the place where the video was shot. James Michael mentioned on his website that he enjoyed watching Meat acting out the song.

-3 different names for the album, and finally it is there

I guess Meat's vision for the album has changed or evolved over time. The title may have been changed from Testify because of Phil Collin's album of the same name that came out recently, or it could have been to draw more attention to the title track, Couldn't Have Said It Better.

-first release in germany

There's nothing wrong with that. Of course, I wish it had been released in New Zealand first. We all wish that it had been released in our own countries first. But it has to start somewhere. Europe (and Germany) has been very good to Meat in the past.

-Duet with Shakira

I think this is a good thing, an I am looking forward to it. Some people on one of the mailing lists say that she is the spoken voice on Tear Me Down.
