sheww! 3rd rate guitar work, at best. He needs a lot more support from the band because he just cant carry it alone. other than that, the phony, affected vocals and cliche lyrics (other than "couldn't wait that soon", that was a good line)...well, I guess I didn't like it.

I hate songs with guitar (or some other instrument) coming through just the left or right channel. Makes me feel like I'm going deaf in the other ear (at least, when wearing headphones).


Yeah me too. I guess it's really only horrible when wearing headphones, but it makes it unlistenable at work.

Oh my, someone is defenitely too touchy feely and providing far more personal information then anyone wants to know. You obviously always put the toilet seat down after using it, that is assuming that you stand when you urinate which frankly I find highly doubtful.
Now getting back to the music, good song!

Saw them open for Dave Matthews Band around 7 years ago. Hated them. Can't believe this is the same group - it's actually listenable.

I think there's a lot of pressure on women to acquiesce with the sexual demands of men, and that men take this for granted. As a man I've perpetrated this in the past, trying to convince my girlfriend to have sex with me even though she didn't want to. It took me a while to realize that it was disrespectful and wrong to do so.

Anyway, it's one of those things that I'm regretful about, so maybe I'm being over-sensitive about it. I do feel that it's a sexist behaviour that is perpetrated by a lot of men - without many of them even realizing it.

To make this song into something sexist is such a frickin stretch.

I get annoyed everytime I hear this sexist bullcrap. It's such a typical male thing to demand sex when and how they want it. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against morning sex - I've had some very sweet experiences with it; What bothers me is the the fact that this guy is basically demanding sex *now* from his partner regardless of whether they've even had a chance to wake up, let alone want to gratify his sexual desires.
