Its decent but the Halle Halle lyric just grates ... Attempt number 1 of 2 (so far) at ripping off Hallelujah, the second obviously being Amen

Agreed with Captain... this is a poor song and really gets up my nose with the Halle, Halle crap. Must rank in the bottom ten jovi songs for me. Sorry.

I quite enjoy the song. I like the "Halle, halle" parts.

Just because they say "Halle Halle" doesn't mean it's a ripoff of Hallelujah. The songs are nothing alike. Amen is a much more direct ripoff, both musically and lyrically.

That said, the "Halle Halle"s are awful.

I actually think this is by far the worst song on The Circle. The whole album aside from a few songs was grossly underplayed live, both last tour and especially this tour, but I'm glad Learn To Love was one that never got an outing.

Great song, in my opinion. Listen to it quite often still.

Always thought it was a good ending for 'The Circle', even though I hate ballads ending albums. Strange.

It's the same as the rest of 'The Circle'...bland, cold and forgettable.

That's how I would describe WAN.
The Circle is far superior IMO but maybe that says more about how bad WAN is!

One of my favourites from The Circle, which I actually love.
