    Check out the version from Milton Keynes 2014. :wink:
    i think the delivery throughout the europe 2014 tour was good but the audience interaction especially for the outro made it excellent. that aside, the solo still kills me. i feel more "every rose has its thorn" or "i remember you" hair band ballad that completely turns me off.

    I skip it or change the station whenever it comes on.  It rivals parachutes as their worst song IMO.

    Yeah, it's bad when it comes on the radio, particularly when I'm in the company of someone else who knows what a big PJ fan I am. I find it rather embarrassing. :lol:

    I find it a shame that if/when any future Greatest Hits album gets released, alongside classics like Alive, Animal, Corduroy, etc we'll see Sirens (and Last Kiss...and Just Breathe)

    Give a little bit by REO Speedwagon... Try to unhear that every time you listen to Sirens from now on.

    reminds me a Queensryche ballad.

    and the only thing worse than the solo was the solo in Cinci 2014 when Mike's guitar was out of tune.

    Me too. There should be no comparison of Parachutes or YLB to the embarrassing dreck that is Sirens
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    I've never understood the hate for this song.  Actually this poll is turning out to be more "pro" Sirens than I'd have guessed.

    Then again, my pee-break is the nine-minute slog known as "Black."
