I don't know if this thread already exists, but I just saw the video, and personally, much better than live@Launch. This one doesn't sound remixed. Very nice! :nod:

Picture = :love:
A/L/S = :love: :drool: :love: :drool:

I really don't like the acoustic WAY though.

Aww come on, the only thing ever that's better than Where Are You acoustic, is the regular Where Are You. :P

I did too. I don't want to watch it again though, because I guess their license only allows you to watch it 15 times or something. :(

They should have done Al Genina.

But this confirms to me that A/L/S is the best damned song this band has written since TWF.

Yep. The best thing written since Mike left.

And the new guitarist didn't even write it. :happytears:

i agree i think the acoustic songs sound really good in general, particularly picture and WAY- i absolutely hate WAY on the album- someone once said on here that it sounds sort of cut and paste like it just sounds retarded and cheesy and choppy on the album but here it flows quite nicely and sounds natural--- i very much agree with ASL being the best thing they've written since mike left, though i was dissapointed with how it sounded live wen they were here in Chicago, it sounded sort of lifeless and never really had any energy to it

Even acoustic the chorus sounds off. Raine switches registers way too much (too low on the chorus, then to high again, then back to low, etc). It's still not a very smooth song.

It does sound better, though.

I think i'm gonna have to agree with A/L/S being the best song written since Mike left.
I didn't like acoustic WAY either.
I don't do sigs.

It bothers me when he goes down the octave in WAY. I agree with what people said above, that it doesn't really flow.

first thought: 'i will steal raine's hat and fucking burn it.'

later: 'man, jeremy can do a lot of things with one hand... *pause*... *snicker*'

This version of acoustic WAY sounds a billion times better than the other one we have from the radio, at least!

Alright, folks. No more of this "you can only watch them 15 times cos we're MTV and we SUCK" crap. I've gone and removed the DRM (and let me tell you... it was a pain), so now if you come on the hub and download them from me, you can watch them as many times as you please. :duncan:

Yay Nikki :D
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.
