I actually credit Jon for A. Trying Something Different & B. Writing lyrics like a Rock Star once again instead of a politician. "You look like shit so dear my brother, I missed you too, yeah you dumb stupid mother" Although if you watch the movies, it's almost a direct rip but that's ok.
On the flip side, I never liked that as the songs beginning. It's too much too soon. Plus, all I hear are those annoying housewives screeching in the background when Jon plays it live for the first time. That kind of ruined the song for me. If we were in our 20's, that would have received a "**** yea you dumb stupid ****er" instead of 45 year old housewives screeching like "omg, did he just say shit and dumb stupid mother"
This alt version flows much better and has a little more production to it. This one wins over the original for me
