...what?

EDIT - after hearing the whole song, i think it has potential, but needs to get better - like you all have said, the chorus is cool, like that alot - but the come on come on yeah yeah thing isn't too hot....yet - hopefully they'll spend a lot of time working on this one cause i think it could be good

It reminds me of Macbeth. He was pretty much told to kill the king for his lady.

i really like the song. I think songs like this may have showed up on SU if batson wasn't evolved and we would have been much more pleased. I like this tune alot I dont think the chorus is as bad as people think. There's great sections to this

this song is average. Idea of You and Sister are great but this one is OK for now.

I like the chorus but I can't decide about the rest of the song. I've only listened to it once so we'll see.

i think this is much better then anything on ED or SU.

From about 2:35 into the song to the end sounds like old dave to me.

I'm really excited to hear more, a feeling I didn't share once I heard AB and such during the pre-SU releases they had on their website.

It has a nice funky feel I like it.

The only part I don't like is the bridge or whatever that is in the middle, it sort of drones on... I dunno something about it makes me uneasy.

i agree with everyone that the Chorus sounds like old school dmb, im really digging it. the verse parts are weird...it'll probably grow on me.

Middle grade. I think Dave could reconstruct the guitar part a bit. It just didn't fit for me. But I'll keep listening.

what is everyones problem with the chorus? I think its the best part of the song. I like the first riff but I don't like how all you really hear is the piano. it's that stupid piano that you hear at baseball games.
