**Update to the Update- “Greetings from the real writing world. I am a beat writer for one of the MLB teams and I just wanted to drop you a line. Our clubhouse is buzzing about the new Zito track that just dropped. Word around the league is that Zito is the new Jack Johnson. Tell him we all wish him the best with his new endeavor.”
**Update- “Zito is pissed and trying to find out who put that song out there. His publicist is going crazy!”
Barry Zito is trying SO HARD to be Hollywood and is obsessed with John Mayer. He is as serious as a heart attack in this song. He recorded this as his Demo (got leaked to me from studio) and thinks he has a shot at becoming a huge singer. I don’t understand why he just can’t stick to doing what he does best- ripping off the Giants.
DIRTY ARMY, please let Barry know your thoughts on his beautiful voice.

well, at least his pitching has been ok, if he needs to sing crap to get his fastball over 86 mph then by all means…the guy is making big league money, so we cant punk him on 30k milli status

Can I borrow a feeling?

You rock, Barry!
to BibleThumperYeti says:
There’s plenty of crap already out there by so-called “professional” singers just as bad as this – so it’s no surprise this was made. Just like they do for Britney or Ashley, they can clean it up in the studio – this is obviously a raw take. The thing that perplexes me the most are the lyrics – what the hell is he singing about?
to YetiDick Dasterdly says:
That sucked and he looks as queer as a 3 dolla bill!
to Dick Dasterdlyjustin bobby(the real one) says:
LOL

ONe question does a man have to do what a mans gotta do?
Even with auto tune on the vocals he is still out of key.
FAIL!

This is so bad I kicked my dog.

I’d still bang him. Of course being a baseball player I’d make sure he put on ten condoms.
to Burning Sensationwowthatsbad says:
i rather listen to 20 cats in heat for 6 hours than hear that song again. “zito, your f*&king fired!”
to wowthatsbadElla says:
Who lied to him and let him even get to the point of recording a demo?
to EllaEXAFSP says:
WTF was that, and why? I had to push stop and go back to listening to my kids fighting!!! I hope opposing ballparks play that when he walks out to the mound. Not sure what he is going to do with this song…If I was Barry, I would start working on another pitch!!! His music career sucks…
to EXAFSPRockwell says:
Zito in the studio:
Okay, now you’re talking above my head. I don’t know all of this industry jargon, YP, MP. All I know is that I can’t get a record contract, we cannot get a record contract unless we take those tapes to the record company. And granted, the tapes themselves are a uh um oh, you own them, all right, but the magic that is on those tapes. That f*cking heart and soul that we put onto those tapes, that is ours and you don’t own that. Now I need to take that magic and get it over the record company. And they’re waiting for us, we were supposed to be there a half hour ago. We look like *ssholes, man.

to sammmel B says:
Is this a joke?
to mel Bwow says:
i loved it…been singing this crap all day in my head…..
to wowRock Critic says:
It is hard to get out of one’s head. I’m sure when he came up with the melody for the chorus, he said, “No one will forget this!” so he repeated it a buncha times. That said, it needs development, And some effects on vocals to smooth it out. Hey, if I wrote a song demo, it wouldn’t be any better than that, props for him having the nerve to record it.

Sorry my bad…I’ll remember to remove the cock from my mouth next time I sing.
to Barrry Zito's voicewell says:
Too bad his name isn’t Brian.
to wellOh dear God... says:
That was absolutely horrific. The beat was awful, his lyrics were gay and repetitive, and his voice sounded like crap! Nothing was in sync!! I almost threw up, and my ears almost bled! What the hell was the point of it? Was he drunk? High? Post getting it on with Brian Wilson?
to Oh dear God...Oh dear God... says:
I forgot to say that that crap is stuck in my fvcking head.
to Oh dear God...niiiice! says:
I like it. Smooth and jazzy!
to niiiice!ROCKIES! says:
hahha can we please play this song next time he pitches at coors?
to ROCKIES!Anonymous says:
sad thing is its better than his pitching
to AnonymousBaked Zito says:
very Michael Franks like. Great song and good vocals
to Baked ZitoAnonymous says:
now he sucks at two things. the mfr’s signs the big contract with my beloved giants and then embarasses both himself and the giants. kind of reminds you of livan hernandez. wins mvp in the playoffs for the marlins. comes to the giants, signs a big contract with the giants AND GETS FAT LIKE A [removed]. then loses confidence in throwing a fastball and just flat SUCKS. go back to cuba you freaking loser.
to AnonymousIn Pain says:
Saddam Hussein could have used this on the Kurds.
to In PainArty Lunch says:
With all his $$$ couldn’t he find someone to digitally re-work his vocals … Then hire someone to write him a decent song.

My rating: Blows chunks.
Big Fan says:
I think about now The Beatles are shaking in there boots from the brilliance of this man. I cried when I heard how touching this song is.
to Big FanEddie O says:
so now on top of him throwing hanging curveballs, he records a song that makes him sound gay. This is gonna be a disaster in the clubhouse!
to Eddie Ochaz says:
