I agree. I won't pass final judgement until I hear the whole thing either.

I actually am surprised. I didn't expect it to be awesome, as I didn't even like the live version, but I didn't predict it being that awful. I really can't get over what a generic absolute piece of crap that was.

I'll admit it, I'm losing hope with this album. Maybe even the band... They spent two years on this. Two years. We've gone three years since hereing something new (I'm counting KOTM and BTH), and we get short-changed with this. In those two years, they couldn't stumble upon something strong enough to stand as a lead single? I mean, it's possible that it might be just this song since it was one of the last to pop up, but the production style is horrible too. I doubt it's just this song with this type of production. If so, then other songs like Monkey Brains, White Flags, and Dreamland may be ruined because Raine's production.

I don't see how Raine makes a really good solo album that he also produced, to making this horrible song with the band.

I know I'm sounding really negative here, and I'll definitely admit to that, but my hopes for this album just dropped substancially. I don't see how any OLP fans are going to stand behind this song.

Remembering that we haven't heard the whole song yet, I enjoyed it quite a bit. I can't wait to see them live.

Hate to be negative but... should we go to Wikipedia and add to the genres:

Our Lady Peace

...

Genre(s): Alternative rock, post-grunge, bubblegum pop

??? I dunno, I'm just so disappointed.

That was far from "pop", though.

The first listen through I was a little put off too, but I really think that it was just because I was so used to the live version.

Listening to it a couple more times, I actually really like it. It's catchy as hell. I like the vocal harmonizing quite a bit.

Heavy Alibi · Post by **Heavy Alibi** » 5/10/2009, 5:53 pm

It's catchy yes I agree... but it's completely indistinguishable from any poppy generic song I've heard in my life. This is not OLP. And I don't mean I want their old style back... I just want CREATIVITY and ENERGY back..

Where's Steve? I paid more attention to the bass lines than the guitar.

They're always better live when it comes to energy.

That's what bothers me too. You know they're capable of so much more

That said, not that it matters (or should) but I think this is going to be a big, big single for them.
