What Locobone said. That's what I hear as well.

Also, If anyone prefers to have an album cover for there .MP3, I put this together. Obviously I used a similar style to what TW has on facebook and .net, and combined it with the idea I used for my ftgf sign. I personally can't stand when the album cover section is empty in iTunes, etc.

EDIT: Well, I guess according to Bree there is an album cover for it, just doesn't show for me. Oh well. I guess I still need it, since it won't show on my part. :P

I actually wouldn't even be surprised if this wasn't included on the record at all. It feels like a one-off thing for the OWS movement more than anything.

I agree. I know it was a spur of the moment thing. Also if it was going to be part of the album I don't think they'd be giving it away for free.

OK. So does this sound correct to everyone?



I've got this thorn in my side
I got the boogeyman jive
I know just what to do

Gotta take back the throne
(we"ll)? let the kids rock n' Roll
I know just what to do, yeah

and take me home to the place we understand
Where the cold winds blow
and revolution's in the air

and all we know
We're fighting for what we have
Fight the good fight
Fight the good fight

When war is declared
We gotta get back to square
I Know just what to do

Not gonna swallow my pride
or do a jekyll and a hyde
I know just what to do, yeah

and take me home to the place we understand
Where the cold winds blow
and revolution's in the air

and all we know.
We're fighting for what we have
Fight the good fight

You hear me knocking on your door?
Said the joker to the whore
Time to even up the score

We gotta do what's right, right, right, right

and take me home to the place we understand
Where the cold winds blow
and revolution's in the air

and all we know.
We're fighting for what we have
Fight the good fight
Fight the good fight

Oh, every once and a while a change has to come
We're raising our hands to the beat of a drum
To the beat of a drum
To the beat of a drum

Finally i can enjoy the song without the varios voice...I heard the song before to start hearing Burn Burn...the Raine's voice it's better in this song than the almost Burn Burn...of course it's an anthem to the Occupy then i think that the song don't describe the potential of Album 8(and probably it won't be on the album)...however it's a catchy and good song for me...

And OWS isn't so radical left wing IMO. Not sure why politics would stop someone from listening to a song either. :)

Since it will be commercially released, no.

I didn't think that the song will be commercially released...especially after the free release of the electric version by the band...sorry guys! :)

No worries. Probably some pirate out there will post it online somewhere anyway. The album's available for pre-order here:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007OA ... d_i=507846

It's a 4-disc set with 99 songs... probably a little expensive after international shipping but if you like some of the other bands it could be worth it. Not sure yet if it will have a digital release or if individual tracks will be available separately.
