It never stood out for me until the other day. Sometimes I think shuffling songs on mp3 players frees them up a bit - some tracks get a bit landlocked by those around them sometimes. I'd always thought of it as a bit standard, but after eight years of owning These Days it leapt out at me last week. Weird.

Something to Believe In is right inbetween the two and, in my opinion, breaks them up perfectly.

Great song, the outro never fails to light a fire inside.

+ 1

It is one of the weaker songs on the album, for me. I like it, but I don't love it.

i love the song,of course many times i had put my these days album just to listen to if thats what it takes,its such an atmosphere dark but pretty
And the way jon sings "I... play the part of a broken heart...just blew me away also richies vibrato after the first verse each time jon sings

TONIGHTS THE NIGHT I M GONNA PROVE IT TO YOU GIRL!

And if thats what it takes to be happy i will
