The Fray?

I have really been down on new music for several years now, but I happened to hear a song this weekend that really intrigued me. It was "Over My Head" by the Fray.

Does anyone else like that or have any opinions on any of their other work?

    I've only heard that one song...I've noticed a lot of their shows sell out fast though.

    I've heard a second one now. It's good, but not as good as that song.

    MD just added the song into rotation at the radio station I work at on the weekend.

    I've got their album, its pretty good. Most of the stuff is rather upbeat. The end of the CD drags a bit, but the first half of the CD is really pretty good.

    I saw them open for Weezer/The Pixies last summer. I never heard of them going in but was pleasently suprised. Really good new band...I would check them out again if they cam a little closer.

    Thanks for the replies! I'll probably buy the CD.

    I actually saw them open for Ben Folds earlier this year, sat front row, and met the band afterwards. Never heard of them before, and then two months later all my friends have their album and are talking about them. Then I see them on TV, one of the top sellers on iTunes, and now here. Kind of weird...

    I find them kind of repetative and boring, but they're fairly good.
