Not so quirky. A rare Weezer ballad single if they ever had one. Solid lyrics.

Definitely does its thing + is better than "Memories", so a good all-round choice.

Single version from webstream with Rivers singing over it:
I really liked the album version - it reminded me of The Cure, even though the chorus was pure-Weezer. The single version is a lot rockier. I love the added guitar solo. This will definitely be a lot bigger than "Memories." I thought "Ruling Me" should've been the second single, too, but with the new single version, this makes sense at Alternative.

Didn't think they'd be releasing another one. Wonder how it'll do.

You know, now that they've actually taken some time to cool off, this might actually be a decent hit. I preferred "Memories."

I prefer "Run Away," which is their best song since "Hash Pipe."

It's a shame they took so long to release this, because I do think Hurley was their first album in quite sometime with four very strong, Alternative-leaning singles (NOT "Memories") - "Ruling Me," "Run Away," "Hang On," and "Unspoken."

Love Unspoken and Trainwrecks.
And Ruling Me.
Can't say I even remember this one.
