The guitar work going into the bridge and the outro :heartbeat: it might call for 5 instead of 4.5, but it is really hard to give maybe the 6th best song on a album a 5.

I love McCready's playing on this one. He has some of his standard triplet runs, but there's some moments he combines some more patterned runs throughout. I love this song!

It is almost power pop. The first thing I thought when I heard the riff was that it sounds like Big Star. Anyone else hear a bit of O, My Soul there?

I love the main riff to this song. I don’t know why but it has this groove that reminds me of Do the Evolution. This is starting to become one of my top favorite openers.

The bridge lyrics fused with the music may be my favorite part of this whole album. Though it is heartbreaking

Love the song, but sounds a little too Foo Fighterish?, reminds me of The Pretender.

The liner notes actually say "pool cue - sean penn"

That's just silly. You couldn't make it through an album without making a Sean Penn reference?

I can't wait for the next "list each album's fatal flaw" discussion.
