Second listen.

The chorus reminds me of the BIG-production-feel of Inside Job.

Wilds · July 2009

#20 for me. I was listening to SOLAT and it was yanked away.......

Nice! I hit refresh, and it said there were zero plays... could it be I was the first!?!?!?

Naaaaah... too many underground bootleggers out there who probably have rough demos of the entire album. :P

BTW, this song is super relevant to my life right now. I really enjoy it, so I may be biased! And it's too short. I could go with some more "yeah yeah yeah"'s I believe. Yup!

Its said 0 for me too hahaha
But by the time it had finished it was up to 63

Ah drat! heh oh well. I'll definitely be one of the first in line to buy the album, at least in this town. So that's good enough for me.

Too many Heffeweisen's for a work night. Time for bed....

One more listen...

Then time for bed :P

Yeah yeah yeah yeaaaahhhh

I like the melodic bellie sounding stuff! Can't quite place it if its like a xylophone or synthesized. Sounds great!

"Put a bitty fixing on it?"

Is that what he says?

It's too fast! Waam baam and it's over, sounds like skaters background music, no?
Of course I'm liking it...

I Got Some Fixer baby!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fifthelement · July 2009

Sounds . . . good

The sound reminds me of S/T a bit. Can hardly wait for the whole album to drop

the key to a popular radio song, keep it short ... makes poeple want it more and request it more.

I think it's "When somethings old, I wanna put a bitty shine on it"

Thought he says "when somethings broke I wanna put a little fix on it"

I absolutely love the verses. Just right up my alley.

Jury is still out on the ending and the vocal "ar arghs" .

Fuck its different isnt it....same reaction I had to Unemployable (which is a fav off S/T)

Ha, apparently I'm the 63rd listener. Loving it. Kickass piano fill at 1:30.

i was 64! haha...

yeah at first it kinda didn't get my liking...but as the song progressed i enjoyed it...i like the chorus and the brdge...can do without the verses though...that's after one listen...i'll give it a second go...right....about....now

second listen...LOVE THE VERSE now that i can gt over the mystique, i can pay attention to the lyrics and really appreciate the song...i can tell it's going to be one of the big songs of the night...that song where they sort of get into a break down and they just jam it out, ed throw in a few tags, do that thing where he reflects the light with his guitar...definitely that type of song live

WELCOME BACK BRENDEN O'BRIEN!!!

also quick thing...i know people were thinking The Fixer is Obama, but i feel like perhaps it's not...perhaps it's trying to fix a troubled relationships...

over bends · July 2009

The Fixer >> World Wide Suicide

High hopes for Backspacer.

breath123 · July 2009

I hate to say it but I don't care for it.

yet anyway.

to be fair, I hated smile and who you are when I first heard them and no code would go on to be my favorite.

Yea, I agree it has that sort of pop and odd timing of Unemployable.

einatshaul · July 2009

Is it just me or can you still hear the bat swings in your mind?

Cute ditty, I'm liking it

Definitely! I guess it's because it's implanted in my head, but the "hey hey"s in the beginning totally scream baseball highlight reel for me.

mfc2006 · July 2009

yup---i can see how it reminds people of Unemployable....and that's not a terrible thing.

very quick, punchy & poppy sounding. anxious to hear the rest of the record even more now....i really hope they release Supersonic to iTunes tomorrow.
