Substance is better than promises kept? Are you on pills?

[xGlennx]

Damn I really should have got that.

But anyway;
Champion > Betrayed.

[xrobbedgex]

The fuck it is. Promises Kept is much better than Substance, and I fucking LOVE Substance.

[irrelevant dave]

Are we talking about the same bands here?

[irrelevant dave]

Champion was a short-lived '80s group formed in Canada by singer Alex Machin, who first caught the public's attention in another band called A Foot in Cold Water. Other members of Champion included drummer Paul Hannah; bassists Mike Gingrich and Dave Rose; saxophone player Leo Sullivan; and guitarists Ashley Mulford, John Duva, and Brian Allen. Allen also lent his talents on the keyboards.

During their short time together, Champion managed to complete only one album, a self-titled effort that won little observance from the music world. It was released under the Solid Gold Records label. There was one pop/rock single that escaped from the debut album with some small amount of success, "I Would Lie to You for Your Love (And That's the Truth)." ~ Charlotte Dillon, All Music Guide

[xGlennx]

Is that not who you're talking about?

[xrobbedgex]

Different Champion. How could you think it was any other one?

[irrelevant dave]

WHAT WE SAID!

[xrobbedgex]

If you're fucking mocking me, I'll doom you.

[irrelevant dave]

WHAT IT MEANT!

[xGlennx]

IT'S MEANT TO LAST UNTIL THE END.

[irrelevant dave]

[xGlennx]

Fugg.

[xrobbedgex]

Glenn clearly listens to Betrayed more.

[xGlennx]

I haven't listened to Champion in ages actually. That's tomorrow's drive to college sorted anyway.

Some of the opinions in this thread are laughable.
