    something about this one that kind of hints to musical genius although its sort of a b-side.

    Has been my favorite off of Backspacer since the day the album came out, lucky enough to catch it in Philly in 2009 and Atlanta in 2012.

    One of my least favourite PJ songs, TBH.

    its one that i might have actually skipped on BS a few times just because it was just before the last 3 tracks on BS all of which I thought were awesome. Speed of Sound, Force of Nature, The End. I wont be skipping it again.

    Love this song too! Caught it in Atlanta '12 after a six year show drought. They played it with Unthought, Amongst the waves; my favorites off Backspacer. Plus Fixer and got some. Felt pretty lucky having missed the whole Backspacer tour.
    Love Supersonic, great riff, chorus, and breakdown!
  • tunodamaitunodamai Posts: 74
    Definitely an underrated song. I tend to forget about and then when it comes on I remember how much I like it. Got to see it live in Seattle 2013.
    It makes much more sense to live......in the present tense.

    This isn't a dig at you....I think it's interesting how different some of our opinions are toward PJ's music. Yield was the album that made me wake up and pay attention. BS was a disappointment for me. I rank it the lowest as far as favorite albums.

    I thought Riot Act was awful when it first came out. Now it might be my favorite album. Maybe BS will jump up for me some day.

    One of the 4 studio album songs I have not heard live.
    Not a bad song but I would be more interested in hearing the other 3. (No Way, WMA or Getaway).

    I'm with you. I did not like Riot Act at first, but love it now. I find that I appreciate BS more after LB, but neither are great overall albums. They have their moments, but a lot of the material seems weak and uninspired.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I put LB far above BS....but BS is pretty low for me

    i'm used to sort of standing alone on this one. Riot Act has aged well...i liked it at first and then kind of shelved it...i'm glad they made that album and i hope they aren't afraid to make another experimental sounding album like that.
