Actually, strangely enough, the only place that I've heard this song is on VH1 mega hits. I have no idea how this got on a VH1 playlist, but it did. Regardless, it's currently #33 on the alternative chart with a gain of +75. Personally, I think this song is awesome in an 80's hair band kind of way. For those who have heard it, do you think it can climb much higher on the chart?

Musically this song is great. These are talented musicians who have written some great stuff.
They need a new lead singer. He comes off as kind of a joke. Sure, he can hit some high notes, but I think his voice is too novelty sounding. In a Spinal Tap kind of way.

I've seen this on both MTV (Buzzworthy) and VH1.

It sounds like Robert Smith fronting The Cars, with too much Spinal Tap influence (if there is such a thing). I'll pass.

i read a review in Exclaim! about their album, and they said that the album is uninspired and kind of all over the place... the album is (in their opinion) so dull, that by the time you get to the really kicking tracks, the listener is already too bored of the record to care...

I like the song's cheesyness. It's great if you listen to it once in a while. I saw the MTV Europe awards performance and they were great. Better than anything else on the show except for 7 Nation Army.

I really can't stand this song. It's actually painful!

The really scary thing? Even though I said this song is extremely annoying, I can't seem to get it out of my head!!! ARRGGHH. If it wasn't for that stupid falsetto, I think this would actually be pretty good.
