    I take it you're the type of person who gets handed a free beer and then complains if it's not in the right type of glass.

    you could have changed the station or turned off the tv.

    I like it. Downloaded it off the website and listened to it a bunch of times. The chorus has a catchy melody.

    There's a few PJ songs that I'm not a big fan of, but I'm not going to complain about it in the forums. I'm glad there's a few I either don't like or have heard to often live - it gives me a solid five minutes for a bathroom break at a show.

    Your TV has the power to retrieve broadcasting from the future... or it was a recording and you haven't figured out how to work a Stop button yet?

    i think it's one of the best rockers they've had in awhile. sounds like a mix of backspacer and binaural. eddie's vocals sound sick on it

    I feel like this song is hard on Eddie's voice and therefore won't be played as often as we all think.

    Even if that's the case, he sounded brilliant last night. even if it's a rarity, i totally dig it :)

    remember the lukewarm reaction "got some" received when they threw that out there on conan? that was the first song we got to hear from backspacer, and it's not a bad song, but it's a quick rocker/punker similar to ole and it was probably the weakest song on that album. i don't mind them for throwing that out there in between albums (or even from the next album) because there's undoubtedly better stuff to come, even if avocado ends up being their last high quality album. no need to hate.

    if you wanna hate on anyone, i won't complain if you direct it at jimmy fallon. i don't find him funny at all, i give him points for trying (and for having the roots as his house band, because they're awesome), but he comes off as awkward more often than not. at the same time, i'm not gonna go out of my way to trash him, i'm just gonna watch something else. there's plenty out there for everyone and not everyone is gonna like everything. goes for this song too.

    you guys... all their albums are equally great. yes, even backspacer. and ole is awesome! PJ is like a fine wine, they get better with age. I'm sick of people who want them to re-create ten a million times. let them progress and change their sound.

    a day pass that i saw it live and now i understand why Ed sing balls in the mouth..he knew..
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

    one fan's piss song is another's gem.

    at pj20 my buddy took a piss during jeremy while i danced around so much i fell (thankfully) right back in my seat.

    this song is ok. i usually like songs eventually who knows. its music..shit is fun

    My take on Ole- a lot of times when I hear a new PJ song, like Got Some on Conan or say I Am Mine on the radio, it takes a few listens to get it stuck in my head and to be able to sing it without being on. I've had ole in my head all day, and been singing that and Balls in My Mouth off and on all day.

    I disagree with Got Some being a weak song.. I think Got Some is 10x the song Ole is...

    ole great - the mad beats will captivate your brain in short order. Thie singing was excellent.
    toronto will be full of PJ love and positive vibes as we trash the joint-
