    In another timeline, Gregg Alexander never leaves music and becomes the biggest rockstar of all time.

      Gregg Alexander never left music.. He's continued to write a huge swatch of music for other artists and movies alike... He recently wrote most of the songs for a movie called Begin Again which has some top tier lyrics... love the movie, love the songs but the lyrics are meaningful and touching... worth checking out

      I heard the main thing was he just hated touring and felt exhausted all the time which is understandable. Travel, interviews and shows can just zap the energy right out of you.

      I always wonder what would have this song be if Gregg Alexander released the song for New Radicals or Santana where would this song be? I heard stuff that Game of Love was technically made in 1998-1999 and originally for a then rumored 2nd album for New Radicals. My take is that Michelle Branch would only be known for songs she own in the Spirit Room and Hotel Paper.

    Gregg Alexander is one of those shooting-stars-you-can't-catch. His New Radicals album was a joy and a "tease" of things to come -- and then we had a very cool magical music rug ripped out from under our feet! What a shame for us that he didn't care for performing (if that was the real story) ... but a person has to do what he is happiest doing.

      There was even a Japanese edition of Game of Love. I had no idea that Gregg Alexanders or Santana's crew signed up for Game of Love to be re-written for a Japanese audience.

      I am not so sure what was the process for that song to have rights to be rewritten in Japan though given that when the New Radicals written the song it was meant for their now cancelled 2nd album. I knew after that then Santana's label got the rights to that song initially for Tina Turner prior to Michelle Branch being called in as an alternate singer by Santana's crew. The Japanese edition of the Game of Love went on as a soundtrack for an Anime show in 2004.

    God dang! He's in the background of some of my favorite songs of all time and I had no idea it was the same guy behind "Get What You Give", but it makes so much sense. Listen to the chord progressions on this song and the vocals and hot damn if that's not in the same galaxy as Get What you Give.

  • @joy7353
    @joy7353 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I had read an article that he didn't like the "drama" involved w/being in public eye, after release of that magnificent album..he wanted to be behind the scenes, private. It's a shame and our loss...but he also has the right to "hide" - the media can be sooo envasive and it takes a strong, not so private person, to deal w/that. But brilliant, I wish we COULD be priviledged again...

  • @muhammadhafid4373
    @muhammadhafid4373 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love this song since the first time I heard it...and the more fascinating fact is he's also the one who wrote "Someday we'll know", one of the greatest song I've ever heard.

    This guy is his generation’s version of the late, great Paul Davis, stays grounded, but writes songs that everybody loves. Mad hooks here, and yes, very Hall and Oates influenced. Gooooood stuff here.

    • @fadguru
      @fadguru 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I bet he's probably a big fan of Todd Rundgren. Sounds like there's a little influence from Todd's stuff.

    ...a terrific song by terrific song writers, Gregg Alexander and Rick Nowels. Got to love Greggs voice! Hard to believe Tina Turner and Macy Gray both record this one prior to the Michelle Branch/Carlos Santana version. Would have loved to hear all the various outtakes. Michelle deserves allot of credit for taking this one up the US pop chart, to number 5, in 2002.

    I'm 18 and I think I've loved this guy and New Radicals since I was like 14 or something. His sound is so unusual. Like indie heartbreak pop or something. I love him! If I met him.. oh man, he'd be in trouble ;)
