I like it. Simple, but i like it.

Great song and an interesting video. Andrew can really do no wrong in my book.

Weird video - but whatever I don't really like any music videos...

All I know is I saw Jack's 2 days ago at a free show in Baltimore and they were incredible. Best live band.

I like this a lot. Love this song.

I like it, probably my favorite song off the album.

carcrashofahart 05/01/12 10:47 AM

loved it. the only song i really loved off the last album too. it's weird that andrew is even trying to promote it though. last i heard he wanted to retire the jack's moniker...

love them but that is the worst video Ive seen in a very long time

songs great, video makes him seem like an awkward 15 year old.

The concept of the video is a little worrying, I think. I just hope he doesn't really feel like touring/recording is just going through the motions, and that he's still enjoying it. :-(

I think the video may be about going through the motions and how the industry can appear "fake." The video may intentionally look that way, as in not being real.

Love everything McMahon has made, and this CD is no exception. Having said that, this video is awful and awkward as fuck. Just sayin.

Jhawker182 05/01/12 03:11 PM

Really like this song, not sure I feel the same way about the video though. Regardless McMahon consistently makes great music.

last two jacks albums ahve been pretty bad.

same goes for the video.

kismet 05/01/12 04:32 PM

I like the idea behind it, not sure about the video. It's a good album though, as is anything Andrew does. I'll never understand the hate TGP gets.

My thoughts exactly. :(

Wow this video was awful. However I did LOL at the amount of red cups. Good song though

walking_by91 05/01/12 06:54 PM

Ohhhh wow I felt kind of embarrassed to watch that. Andrew looks uncomfortable throughout. It's not a bad music video concept, it just doesn't seem to match up with Jack's Mannequin. Also, not a huge fan of "release me". A music video for Platform Fire would be gooooood.

It reminds me of that Waking Ashland video

SeanEBoy2686 05/01/12 08:23 PM

good song, bad video... it felt forced

I found the video kinda weird too. Still, this song has grown on me a LOT since the first two listens waaay back when.

And I really think he should bring the beard back. He totally rocked it.
