    Sires album version is good but to me it just never really translated well live.   I haven't really heard a good version live.

    I like Mike's solo on it, otherwise I suck too.

    Really surprisingly loved the o-o—oo-oo outro on this live. I think it was Charlottesville or Hampton when I first heard it. Really changed the song for me

    Sirens on the album is great but doesn't translate well live as others have said. I'm in the minority here but I think Just Breathe is terrible. Something about it just feels too cheesy to me.

    I like the sentiment behind the songs. So I half-suck.

    Same! Nice to get confirmation that I suck!
  • PP193448PP193448 Here Posts: 4,282
    Both songs are OK.  Don’t really want to hear either at another concert.  So I would therefore say that I lick instead of suck????

    I like the song and the sentiment of it. Yeah the lyrics are a little cheesy, but as I got bit older, they became pretty relatable. Being younger with less responsibility, but then getting married, having kids and now grandkids you start to spend more time contemplating what you have to lose, and being thankful for it.

    I guess I’m in the “I suck” club too.

    I also suck.

    I don’t mind it at all. However I never want it in a live set at a show I’m at. So now I’m unsure if I suck or not. 
  • ZodZod Posts: 10,882
    lol.. Sirens is a pretty divisive song.

    I guess I suck.  I don't think its the content I don't like.  I think it's got too many layers to it.   When it came out people said it was the new Black, but it doesn't seem nearly as raw to me as black.  It also seems to be an energy suck at live shows.

    I prefer the acoustic songs from backspacer.  Love to hear those ones :)

    Also not a fan of Sirens or Just Breath. Given a choice I would rather hear Sirens live so I guess i just kinda suck.

    I agree with this. Thought it was fine when I first heard it, and then a little while later it was around for me in a time & place when I needed to hear it, but I certainly wouldn’t try to convince anyone else that they should like it if they don’t. 

    As of now I’d say I can do without hearing it live ever again, but it’s probably more accurate to say that if I ever find myself hoping for it in a setlist, it probably means something pretty bad has happened.

    I like when they play Sirens. I drink a lot of beer at shows and appreciate the opportunity to hit the bathroom.

    Just mean that it’s their attempt at a ballad. A sappy love song, presumably for the radio. You’re right it doesn’t musically sound like it
