That would be a 180. If they did a 360, they'd have released Hysteria again.

I loved Slang. In fact, the only song I don't have on my DL playlist from that record is Slang.

Surely Tomorrow and Promises deserve to be added to that list? Especially Tomorrow, that song's absolutely fantastic.

Granted, Tomorrow gets a free pass. But Promises? H*LL NO!

Promises sucks.
Now and Scar were both good.

I loved promises! To Be Alive is quite good as well.

Tomorrow and Torn to Shreds are the best two they've done since Hysteria.

Did like Now and Scar though but a lot of the X album is weird, what the hell is Unbelievable all about? Sounds like some shitty early 00s boyband...

Vivian's version of To Be Alive beats the hell out of the band version by a mile.

I wasn't aware there was one! See this is what this board is good for. Hope it's on youtube...

EDIT: - this the one?
It's good, have to say i prefer the band version though. Prefer Joe's voice

It's one of my favourite songs. Not just as a DL song, I mean in general.
