  General Comment:it's not that bad, but it can't hold a candle to the original. Paul Rodger's voice is so fitting to this song, anyone trying to cover it is screwed from the start.

  General Comment:the cover of this song is TERRIBLE. I'd go far to say embarrassingly horrific.

  My Interpretation:being down and puttn in work for the gang. it is the life of a G. plain and simple. each line of the song is about gangs and how youngsters are swept up and live through the hard times. WEST LOS

  General Comment:I read last week that Paul Rodgers has the undisputable best voice in Rock & Roll; and you should hear him sing this on the Bad Co Live
  video. Listen to the way he finishes a sentence, and the modulation in his voice (ex the words ...away, know, claim, fame....he is really unbelievably good. )
  
  ps check the energy levels of each member in the band on this song: the drummer is over the top, and the guitar does the thrills with bends and vibrato simulaneously...I have Never seen energy like that B4
  
  I can not believe that you cried.,. squeven..( that seems soo apropos )...
  but then I Can Believe you cried...are you a musician or just have a great ear for music?

  Song Meaning:I believe that bad company was written about a desserting confederate company in the civil war (Rebel souls- Confederates or rebels, Desserters we are called obviously they have desserted . They were infamous because of their vigilantie reputations. He leads the company but is double crossed much like other Rebel groups.

    Before and during the Civil War we had men with bounties on their heads and those that hunted them. Many bounty hunters would join a confederate crew if they knew they were going to war with a group that had a man with a price on his head. After the fight the bounty hunter would try to collect the cash and be gone. This is why the Confederates started putting deserters to death.

  General Comment:One of the finest rock songs ever written. The symbollic fight to survive, to win and to succeed, in life and in music. It's about life, in every avenue and aspect. Relates to all of us from time to time. Great stuff, great album and Paul Rodgers is still the finest voice in rock!
