Break for It

Heres a recording of Break for It i recorded back in 09...

I'm an amateur musician but I totally just wanted to be able to listen to this song. I think I'm in the minority but I would love for this track to make the new album:

    cover was pretty good. I still prefer to listen to the original, but you at least did it justice I think. better than I could've done.

    This song gets ragged on mostly because when the band played it live, Dave let Tim play the main riff, just like Busted Stuff(song).

    i hope in the studio Lillywhite points out how they need to chill out with Tim. i dont mind him being there but he is completely covering up everyone else ...daves guitar, boyd, sometimes jeff..sometimes all i hear is his guitar, just turn him down a little so i can enjoy the pure sound and not just Tim

    Agree with this post.

    As for break for it, I LOVE it! It's a great tune, very chill and has an excellent "Summer" feel to it, I think it would be pretty good on the album.

    If I had a gun to my head and had to pick between Break For It and Break Free being on the album, I'd probably choose the gun.

    But seriously, this song isn't terrible, but it's way too plodding to be anything worthwhile, based on what we've heard so far. I wouldn't be totally against them working on it, but I'd rather it be a b-side at best.

    If done right, with Lillywhite overseeing it's evolution, it can become the worthy sequel to Crush. It has that much potential imo.

    Big fan of this song. I don't really care if it's on the album but I would definitely like to see it during the tour

    I like it too, but that's a stretch. It's just a simple slow riff throughout the whole song, I don't think there's anyway you can compare it to Crush. Let it be what it is.

    I LOVE this song. ever since that vegas soundcheck video of "run while we can" came out, I had been dying for them to play it live and they finally did. It really has amazing potential with lillywhite at the helm.

    Re: Break for It

    I really dig this tune. I would be curious to see what would come of it in the studio, but I would rather they let it be. I am on the side that I would like the album to be all new tunes. That just means more music for us (the fan base). As cool as it would be to see some of these 04' songs re worked with Lillywhite, I have recordings of all of them that I love, and I have seen then all live many times. The idea of 13 or so new tunes is much more appealing to me, I want as many songs from this band as I can get, when it's all said and done.

    On a different note, Run While We Can is a great name for the new album that someone suggested. I also like Patterns On The Wall, from another song I would rather they leave off the new album for the same reason listed above.
