Yes! Great choice, hopefully with an edit this can be a solid follow-up to Lampshades on Fire.

One of the highlights of the album when I listened to it on Monday IIRC, so good choice.

Best choice tbh. Guessing Top 10 on Alt. I don't see another #1 happening though.

A radio edit with a 3:31 running time will be serviced to stations. It's under Cool New Music.

Favorite song on the album but not sure that I like 2 and a half minutes being cut out of it. "The Best Room" would have been a better radio single IMO

This sounds like one of those random one hit wonders from the 80's. Obviously Modest Mouse isn't a one hit wonder, but this definitely has a goofy feel to it. That being said, I did enjoy the song.

I'll be spinning the album version because the 6+ minute version is epic, however the radio edit sounds great and will help this song alot. This sounds like it might become my favourite song of theirs period, I'm liking it more and more all the time and it's already fantastic.

classic Modest Mouse. Not going Top 10 would be an outrage.

Definitely a favorite from the record. Sounds like a lost Oingo Boingo song!

Yes. Good choice - a highlight from the album. I'm hopeful this won't stall out like "Missed the Boat" did and go Top 10.

Ooh, yes, I'm digging this single choice. I don't see it doing all that fantastically, honestly, even in the wake of "Lampshades", but it's the best song I've heard from the new album.
