    I like the new song. Think it may take a few listens after just hearing it on the home page.

    I look forward to not hearing it on UK radio anytime soon.....
    maybe live in London will be better? ;)

    I like the song. Seeing a vinyl release on the band's site has me wondering what the b-side will be. I'm hoping it's not just another track from the album like they did with Nothing As It Seems. It seems like there should be enough material from these sessions for a few b-sides.

    The B-Side WILL be an album track - Supersonic. You can see it right there on the GOODS page.

    Regarding "The Fixer" tune itself - it's a decent track. I'm not overwhelmed by it, but I one thing I do have to say is THANK GOD FOR BRENDAN O'BRIEN! The tune SOUNDS great - drums are crisp, vocals are clean. As long the rest of the album production is comparable to this and the tunes are as good, I'll be mighty pleased!

    I love it & know the boys will rock the shit out of live! Eddie sang "The End" at his Baltimore show & it is outstanding, for those of you who have not heard it yet- you are in for, what I feel, one of the best PJ songs ever.
    I too, have been a fan forever-18 yrs-Boston 1994, my first show. The band has grown, as I have. I am thankful for that. I mean who wants to hear the same old shit released over & over- if that is what I wanted I would be in the "New Kids" fan club. I am not saying that everyone HAS TO LOVE every song. Myself, I have my favs & there are a few I skip over when listening to my IPOD. However, if I am in my car listening to the radio and PJ comes on- it does NOT MATTER what song it is, it is turned up and rocked out to. They are that good.
    I do not give a rats ass who does not like the new song, so be it... Dont be shy, say it-I am not gonna hate on you.
    But I like it & I know a whole lot of fans out there, they are going to be screaming at the next PJ show they go to, right along with Eddie " Fight to get it back again..." I have a feeling even the fans that are not feeling it yet will be joining in too. As for me,"When somethings dark, let me shed a little light on it"

    The version I have heard I think was a dumbed down version (not high quality). I heard it the other day on BBC1 and turned it up in the car....WOW!!! I love it...I can't wait to hear the GOT SOME :D

    am i a hater if i really hate it?

    look i'm glad you guys like it, and thats cool and all, but i listened to it again today for the first time in a week, and i still think its overly polished crap. do they even record live as a band anymore? to be honest this song just puts me in a bad mood.

    Of course, this song will be fun live, once all the garbage is stripped out of it and it sounds like a real rock band is playing it, but there was a time when their studio output could at least approximate the raw energy of their live shows.

    flame on!

    Well, here's my attempt at The Fixer...all comments (+ or -) welcome. Its kinda sketchy (first time doing this kinda thing, too loud and the tone's a little too crunchy) but to be fair, it was done in one take through my laptop. Hope you like it!

    As many here, I'm getting pumped to see the band.

    I listened to World Wide Suicide today for the first time in a while, and let me just say I am very glad to have The Fixer as the new single.

    really liked this new song. The way Eddie sang it first reminded me of a Tom Petty song. not really sure which one. but after hearing it a few times, with knowing the lyrics a bit more now, I don't see it that way. I can't wait for the new cd!
