    I would say so, aside from Amongst the Waves it's probably is the best all round song. The End with the 2 mentioned are my fave 3 on the album.

    agree. when i 1st heard the album and that song came on it was an instant connection with me, can't explain it. i was just hooked
  • I was really feeling this song when I was listening to it earlier today. Lets just hope they debut it tomorrow in Vancouver.
  • FON was so Tuesday. Today it's Johnny Guitar.

    Also, today for the first time Supersonic was a go to song.

  • I 2nd this opinion. But Unthought Known is a close 2nd.

    I'm still agreeing with this here :D

    Force of Nature 1, Unthought Known 2
  • It hasn't been a standout track for me so far. Still waiting for it to catch on with me, since I've heard a lot of people on here say how much they love it.

    However, I will say I gave my fiancee my extra copy of Backspacer and FON is her favorite song. She's just a casual fan, so that must say something...

  • Once I figured out what it was about -- not that I'm some genius, Ed announced in an interview -- I really started to dig the song. The lyrics are phenomenal once you understand where they're coming from.

    I'll agree with this sentiment every time it is suggested. Cause it is true! :!:

    still my favorite but starting to get into gsmf with jeff a's bass work, especially at the end.

    On another note, I go through this album 4 or 5 times a day. The drive to and from work, lunch and a few quick listens. Really enjoying this album

  • Force of Nature is my absolute favourite song on the album. Don't know exactly what Ed was writing about, but that's beside the point. The lyrics speak to me more personally than any other have done for a long time, and Mike has some killer riffs in there too. Absolutely love it.

    Ed, from a recent interview, on Force of Nature: “It's about the strength of one person in the relationship, when they can withstand some of the faults in another – maybe drug addiction, or straying off the path. The person in the song is the lighthouse for the other person caught in the storm.”

  • Completely agree.. I can listen to this song on repeat all day. Such an amazing energy. Great driving song.
    under your tongue, im like a tab.. i will give you what your not supposed to have

    in wide open spaces we sing, with strings.. launch a full on musical cannonball.. guided by bells that we bring, they ring.. sound for the sky and the sun, our own waterfall...

    one with the raging wind, alive on the highest tides, my ship at sail can climb a mountain.. ride it to the sky

    I like Force of Nature but I guess it just hasn't hit me like it has you guys yet...I still can't get past Unthought Known, that song is just incredible...it's like a wave washing over me every time I listen to it
