    I'm still not keen on the chorus, but I'll take it cus the rest of the song is cool.

    i didn't like this song when i heard it on 'cado but after seeing it live i totally dig it. correct me if i'm wrong, but i believe they had a huge bright white light on stage during this song and the fellas almost look like shadows.

    my favorite version is from the letterman show. mike goes fucking ape shit wild.

    best song off the last album IMO, but then again I prefer Brain of J and Lukin over Given to Fly and Inside Job

    ....just sayin
    the Minions

    i'm listening to a live version right now... it grabs me by the balls, swings me around a bit... and then releases me into abuilding made of broken glass and congealed monkey jizz.



    eh... that was a good thing by the way :)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    I thought you were going to comment on the fact that it's 'For fuck's sake', not 'Fuck sakes' :D

    thought about it... decided it would not be in keeping with the theme of the thread ;)

    yeah...yeah...yeah.

    what a lot of people never got to experience was the awesomeness that was a part of the live version at (and prior to) the Detroit show in 06.

    Ed used a megaphone for the lines "High above,... I'll break the law,... If it's illegal To be in love,... Leave the hatred,.. On the cross".

    Click here to download the Detroit 06 version.

    After these lines at the Detroit 06 show Ed ceremoniously smashed the megaphone on the stage...about as hard as anyone could. it exploded into a moonfull of pieces of which some went showering into the crowd. I don't think he's ever sung it with the megaphone again since.

    ds
    And no one sings me lullabyes
    And no one makes me close my eyes
    So I throw the windows wide
    And call to you across the sky....

    I can't understand most of the words but the song and the way its played makes it an awesome song......

    never heard it live live.....only "live" second hand.......
    Baby, You Wouldn't Last a Minute on The Creek......


    Together we will float like angels.........

    In the moment that you left the room, the album started skipping, goodbye to beauty shared with the ones that you love.........

    awwwww WHAT??!!!! my favorite lyric in that song is "somethin never thought youd be part of!" i feel like it pertains to us fans being so into the boys. Like, joining the fan club waaaaay back when it first began and all these years later not EVER thinking we'd still be a "part of" it all.

    I will have to listen to it again when I'm not so tired out and yet can't sleep to see just if I have not listened well enough to the song.

    but haven't you ever liked songs even though maybe the words were not 100% clear to you?

    cool, me too. somehow when I sing along on those parts, usually alone or just happened to be looking out the window of the car, mumbling the words but not the words.

    we had a guy im hs that did that all of the time and when he did his eyes would get all deep as he sung all the wrong words........such a funny memory of such a goofy time of life..............

    It is...for me, when I heard it on the album, I knew I that when I heard it live I would experience the same feelings I had my first time I heard Porch live...and I was right!
