i thought that some of the lyrics were a little bit cheesy. i also thought that they had too many ideas going on at once- it sounded pop/punk/rock all at the same time.
I did hear it at 10:00am when my alarm went off, so my judgement may not be the best since it was the first thing I heard on Thursday. I do remember thinking that the song was better as it continued. The beginning, to me, just sounded very, hmm, uncalculated? I don't know if that would be the best word but meh.

after listening to it again- it sounds pretty good- except the beginning- i just find that annoying- everything past like 10 secs is awesome tho!

A tad maybe, but the thought never crossed my mind. I always thought of it as a straight out rocker.

It is, but the beginning, I find, is unlistenable. There are some parts in the song, i do have to admit, that bring me back to old u2

I love it. I can't wait to see it live.
I like this song off the bat. With Beautiful Day, that had to grow on me. Same with Electrical Storm.

"Michael Jackson was the hot topic for a two-day discussion at Yale University in New Haven, Conn. At the first-ever collegiate discussion of the pop star, 18 professors discussed Jackson's life and his impact on pop culture, MTV reports."
I'm glad the worlds top minds are being put to good use.
