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.

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.

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 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-

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?

Lmao!

Ole' ... now I just listened... great song!

bet they will think it very cool in South America

ole' is an old Spanish expression used to cheer and applaud

I thought it was the cry that a matador says as they pull their red cloak away from an attacking bull, a celebration of taunting something big an imposing and joyfully avoiding it?

I'm reading to much into this song arent I...

no! I love your interpretation ... well done

new PJ ... ahhhhhh

I didn't really care much for the Ole either, but I also wasn't blown away when they were on Conan, I figure I'll give it some time. While I think the OP may have come off a bit too "whiney" in his post, let's not disregard someone's opinion just b/c it isn't favorable towards PJ. Doesn't mean he wants them to just keep recording "Ten" over again....could have just had a bad day.

uhm.. I'm sick of people sayin' the same old pointless things, when a new song is disliked by someone.. olé is simply awful, and I hope is nothing more than a joke, never to be played again and never to put in any future albums.. if you think olé is a progress and change of their sound you must have ham all over your ears..
now, Binaural is a great fuckin' record and a true progress and change of their sound, when it was released.. riot act is a good example, too.. see? I don't want them to recreate Ten, I just want them to not put out cheesy and useless songs, ripped off from Oasis
come on

I thought Olé was a cool song! And it looks like Matt Cameron is behind it; the chords progression are very Soundgarden-ish...!!!

And you know what, as far as Eddie is not singing with auto-tune, what's the problem, really?

Agreed. Song is garbage!

I'm honestly surprise by the Ole' hate. I think if you pair Ole' and Of The Earth, you got the frame work for a sick new album

i love this song, even though i think there's too much "whatchoo say whatchoogunsay" in the song. i hope it'll be like crapshoot that turned into comatose and the lyrics will be altered a bit but if not meh, i'll still rock out to it. and maybe i'll love the lyrics later on. who knowsss....
