    not sure I want to hear a better recording. At least now, I can kind of hope it will sound better. I've got a feeling a better recording will show that to be a false hope. I did kind of like some of the music in the middle. Seemed to have a bit of an edge, but not sure what was going on at the end. Did Dave put on a hat and dark oversized glasses thrown on the stage by a fan?

    reminds me of the DMB parody songs floating around. Parts of it like the bridge are decent but the "be yourself" just kills it.

    Outlook on this song doesn't appear good.
    If you want motivation,
    watch some New Day promos.

    Ok I went back and finished the Soundcloud clip. Two things.

    1: The girl who said "it might be a cover, we don't know yet."

    2: What the FUCK was that outro??? Was he motorboating the Ladies???

    Yea this song is alittle rough, I'm hoping that this is one of the song ideas they are trying to work out on the road that wasn't working in the studio...with that said, its crazy to think people want road tested, Dave improve and to hear what's up with new songs and the moment they come out, it gets destroyed on here haha...i gotta say this one has potential but def is not finished(atleast I sure hope not lol)...relax people, just relax before we declare war on DMB, they are trying, thats a good thing

    The title is cringe-worthy, but I think the music is pretty fun. Really need to hear with better quality though.

    I have no problem with the song title. It's a fine title. The song was not so great. It's cool if it is a work in progress - because you can build off of it - but if that is the finished product than it might be their worst song ever. Ever.

    Just saw a video of about a minute of the performance, Dave definitely doesn't play his guitar for basically any of the song, just during the verse/chorus breaks. Because we need more of that.

    I guess we've already collectively decided this is a bad song. Next please!

    Because they made some good songs on Away From The World. Dave just chooses not to play the best one (Broken Things).
