Haha I was listening to The Division Bell yesterday and thought during that song "that reminds me of sth". But I couldn't make out what it was! Now I know it

To the song...I adore when Jon gets crazy during the lines "the lies are on my tongue, but I can't turn back I know my sould is DAMNED"

It has always been one of my two least favorites off These Days. It is still a good song and a solid rocker. I especially like the Ohhh damned right before the last, last chorus.

Seeing it last summer at Soldier Field made me appreciate it far more than I could image. It is one of the best live songs they have in their catalogue... right up there with Keep the Faith (again, never been a favorite but an incredible live experience). Tico goes crazy... it is something you can't truly appreciate from watching videos.

So yes, a good song and a great live song.

I always liked the song. The guitar work is incredible, Dave's little keyboard riff throughout the song, the vocals, the almost Beatle-esque dialogue in the bridge, the wah-wah solo - **** yeah. Bon Jovi should have written way more of these.
