    Am I the only person that actually loves Sleeping By Myself? I love the band version, not so much the solo version. I for one am thrilled I got to hear it.

    Yes for real? Or being sarcastic?

    No. I actually really like it.  I think it's got a chill groove, and in all honesty I think it would've fit wonderfully on No Code. It's that Who You Are vibe without the existentialism. It's a sad bastard love song. I love songs with upbeat tempos and downtrodden messages and lyrics (Counting Crows - This Desert Life, got me on that). There are a lot of songs that I don't get people's love for and I can see why people wouldn't love this one but as far as slow mellow songs go this one (with the band) is all good. And it's not about hearing a rare one (I heard Bugs and I never need to hear that again, I laughed but don't need it) it's just a song I think they do really well.

    I’m a fan as well.  On the other hand,  Sirens makes me cover me ears.  Good call Buck.

    Most important thread of the day!  Real talk.
    "What can you expect when you're on top? You know? It's like Napoleon. When he was the king, you know, people were just constantly trying to conquer him, you know, in the Roman Empire. So, it's history repeating itself all over again."

    I didn't think so. I don't like it, and I also think Eddie usually kind of butchers it live, and it sounds better on the album, which isn't saying much, coming from me.

    The title of this thread made me giggle, lol.

    Is sirens the new fixer? The song everyone got tired of but after a few years find some affection for?

    Not all heros wear capes.

    This needed to be said.
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    I love that there are fans that want to hear sirens or even leather man - because if I’m sitting next to them and they’re stoked - then I get excited. I love the vibes.
