Has this only been released to Canada or has it hit US airwaves too?
+1 on the DJ
Song sounds great otherwise but I wasn't digging the last 10 seconds with Raines impression of a bullfrog.

Thanks alot for the song Josh. Well, I jsut listened to it about 10 times. Perhaps that's not enough..maybe the DJ's talking over half the song made it worse and maybe the quality isn't 100%. That said, I think it's good but clearly not as good as ANY of the live versions. The music seems less intense and has a softer edge. This is decent, but I really didn't feel like the live version needed to be changed much. I feel alot like i felt after "Not Afraid". Good song, but easily better live. The instrumental intensity is lacking..Raine's vocals are good though...musically, I think it's too tame. Having seen the song perfomed live, I really feel like this version fails to capture the energy and emotion of the song.

remember what they did to Not Afraid? Even Duncan admitted that they should have kept it true to the way it sounded at the Juno's. He called it a "lost" song or something like that... one of the many good idea's that end up losing their magic because they keep working on it and changing it... wayyyy too much.
I totally agree about the Juno version of Not Afraid, the live versions were way better, but honestly I like Kiss On The Mouth's studio version a lot more than the live version. It bored me both times I've seen them play it live.

so... TWO new songs on the greatest hits disc AND a bonus DVD... i wonder what the second bonus song sounds like.
