    I like it but I like just about every other song off their album a lot more. The lyrics are better in the other songs, the guitar solos are amazing, everything. Check down about 4 pages down for a topic about Shinedown I have. It didn't get much attention but it has a bunch of acoustic videos of Save Me, 45, I Dare You, and such. Best album of the year and an amazing vocalist.

    No problem, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. They do a pretty sweet cover of One by U2 as well in those acoustic videos. Well, I think it's sweet even though I don't think I've heard the original.

    check hank williams jr.'s cover then -

    i like save me - but, as someone else mentioned, i like every other song better...save me seems a little cliche...see unwritten law's song by the same title. the acoustic version that someone posted was cool - i like watching that guy sing.

    because the lyrics are just lame and it sounds like everything else that gets played on the radio these days. also, i was disgusted when i heard their cover of simple man. i dont even think it had a guitar solo but i only heard it once and it was a long time ago so maybe i'm wrong. i still hated it though.

    I don't understand the dilike for Seether....so many people think that no new bands can be any good... i bought their new cd and i think it's alright..

    I hate how some people can't like a song or a group just cuz they get a song played on the radio.

    I get that all the time, but I just can't get into it because I think they suck.

    There's plenty bands that don't get played on the radio that I think the same of.

    I don't know how you can put them in the same league as those bands(except Seether, who rock). Those bands don't have any passion in their music or really any talent. I don't think you've even listened to their new album and I don't think anyone one these boards has. Granted, there's a lot of haters but the guitarist, Jasin, has some killer guitar solos on the new album. Their song Lady So Devine is entirely nothing like what's played on the radios nowadays and the best song they've done. Those other bands couldn't touch the talent of Brent vocally or lyrically (though I admit Save Me was nothing special) or Jasin's guitar playing. A lot of people seem to write them off as sounding the same but after listening to their new album I don't think any band on the radio could do something like that really.

    And to the guy that said Simple Man cover didn't have a guitar solo, they haven't done any version of the song that wasn't acoustic and slow. A guitar solo just wouldn't fit with the style they did. They aren't a cover band and probably did the song becuase they're huge fans of classic rock and southern rock.

    the guitar solo is part of what makes that song great. you cant leave it out.

    Maybe so and in their live version on their DVD I think I remember a solo, I'm not sure. All the same, Brent's voice is amazing enough to make my skin crawl when he sings it live.
