wow.
i dont know any of you guys personally really, nor do i think your personal life has any bearing on whether or not this song is good or not. some of you are a bit agressive, and thats your style, no big deal, but its all a little strange to me to poke at a stranger in an internet forum
clarification on my opinion of cheese-
when someone calls a track cheesy they are saying firstly that the track is cheap, it relies on a consistent sound that is often not SUBTLE, original, or complex. cheesy indeed also implies a low level of quality, but the poorness of quality is not really in production skill or sound.
for me, i liked the first song i heard with what are now considered cheesy vocals. most people these days consider vocals cheesy when they rely on that cheap technic of making every word sound like its telling some Epic story. cheesy synths are usually the same-ol saw tooth synth highly filtered and running in 1/16 notes. any other part of a song can be cheesy. most people liked that stuff at some point, but its like when a movie just does over the top stupid stuff to be funny...at some point it just stops being interesting. its not that its not as good as the original tracks that came out with the same sounding synths, its that it is similar and the people in this community, enthusiasts, are disappointed when they think a quality producer is relying on a cheap technique to make a track.
there is indeed some bandwagoning going on where people are just calling anything they dont like cheese and anything that they hear someone else call cheese the same, but some of the times people have a point. as i said above, i like cheesy tracks sometimes too, but they are less and less appealing. and as i said 2 pages ago, i think ferry knows this stuff is cheesy (he probably wouldnt call it that  ), and thats why its under the alias SF. fans of SF want an SF sounding track. the original SF sound has been reproduced so much, its now cheesey. its a shame, but its true.
do you really think he needed to release a vocal cut of Ligaya?
just my two bits. dont mean to step on any toes, i just wanted to defend those of us who are rationally deciding something is cheesy. flame away.
