I am trying to write a script here, but have to stop to write down names of new bands Bill is turning me on to today.  Thanks, Captain Bill.   Wheels up.

The first few notes of this song were ripped off from Timbuk3, and are being ruined by this song!

I like when that angry guitar scratches in, -illustrates that sometimes even lame tunes have something to look forward to in them. The anticipation of such even makes me like the song a bit.

Yep. I don't know if they can (for me) ever 'hit' quite the way they did with "The Man Who", but this is a pretty decent album.

Boring and soporific. Maybe it suits certain purposes. Maybe for those in a drug-induced haze. Sorry, I'm irritable because I must take more caffeine and stay awake to work, and this is making me want to doze off pronto!

The opening 10 seconds sounds like it's going to be the Foo Fighter's cover of Prince's "Little Nicky"

Totally agree. I was extremely disappointed with it when it came out. However, RP has caused me to go back and re-evaluate it and it's not nearly as disapppointing now, as it was then.

I really like the heavy chords - it gets so intense. Otherwise, I'm not sure where this song is going. 7.
