    Jesus Christ. I think it sounds like Free Bird

    That's funny - I thought the 'watery' intro sounded like 'Come Undone'. So kind of like 2 Duran Duran songs in one.

    Any new realizations... would have to wait...
    Til he had more time,... more time...
    Time to dream,... to himself... he waves goodbye,
    To himself... I'll see you on the other side...

    So funny. First thing I said to my wife is how much this song has a late 80s vibe to it (in a weird kinda way).

    On the verses I think you can hear a little Springsteen influence and on the chorus...I think you can hear a little D/D (Ordinary World) in the chorus (Was literally THE song I used to help me explain what I was hearing on 2nd/3rd listen). 

    I love this track...(not a song on here that I don’t love). There’s lot going on from start to finish. The guitar part that comes in on the second part of the second chorus slays me EVERY time (that high, descending, arpeggiated part). #nuance

    Gigaton is among their best output. Thank you, PJ.

    Properly infectious pre-chorus and chorus.

    I had not picked up on this but, if you're going to pick a song to pay homage to, "Ordinary World" is a damned good one to choose.  Amazing song by a great (and underappreciated) band.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.
