Always loved this song so much, but I've been hearing it different lately since recently seeing some band quotes comparing it to The Smiths' How Soon Is Now? Love that reference point and now I can't unhear it.
well i think Jeff and Mike were the first ones who talked about it when the album came out yeah. They also talked about Social Distortion on Down, and i totally see that.

I appreciated the second half of this album a lot more after I heard live versions of those songs. E.g. the version of Help Help from Mansfield 2003.07.02 is excellent and really made me love that song.
Decided to go to the ranker today. There's always margin for error in those in-the-moment judgements, but...
