Miss you so much, Cynaera...

this is a great song, with a profound video that gives the song incredible meaning with visual images of the Twin Towers—

This whole package is Bruce Springsteen if he were chewing bubble gum and became "happy, bouncy pop".

that is what I was just thinking...it speaks to the fact that you usually don't hear repeated artist all that much.

yeah.  although he writes some catchy stuff, everthing i've heard from this guy is way too derivative...so he's a wanker in my book.

funny to think if 9/11 never happened.  I like this tune regardless.

As an expatriated New Yorker I really like the sentiment in this song, I do feel good when I hear it. Having said that, I can't say I like too much else by him though.

The video was shot the weekend before 9/11 and prominently features the twin towers.
