    my first impression of this is that it is incredibly weak. So far I think most of these songs are pretty lame and boring. I will hold off final judgement for a few months of listening, but as of right now, after a few listens, there are a few with potential, but this will be a forgettable album.

    I've been begging for audioslave to break up for a while so Chris could get back to solo work. I now miss them.

    The first 3/4 of the disc is pretty decent, and it trails off at the end. I also don't like how You Know My Name has the screams at the end mixed almost entirely out to fit in with the soft poppiness of the record. All in all it's pretty decent, but if you're not a fan, don't bother.

    saw him on Leno yesterday. i thought the song he played was pretty good, except for the main line in the chorus. "she'll never be your man"? somebody help me out here because i think i have an idea what he meant, but i'm still not sure.

    It's a story of a guy who's girlfriend leaves him for another woman. Chris mentioned it's something he observed from somoene he knew. Hence the chorus:

    She can be your lover
    She can be yor man
    She can be the vision of a mother like the one you never had
    She can know your troubles better than I can
    But she'll never be your man.

    Pretty good if you ask me.

    hes either talking about losing a girl to another girl :) or losing a man to a girl....either way..confusing

    i thought of the hail hail line though... woman enough to be your man?
