It is one of my faves off of Crush. I like it even better live when the band and crowd sway.. so cool!!

The all request hour, the girl in the front row has just asked for Blood on Blood, ok, Merry Christmas young lady!" Amazing <3

I really like it too, along with I Got The Girl! Seems a lot of people just don't like these songs

It was cool and fun when Crush was a new release, but now... no thanks.

It still is a cool, fun little song I reckon, but more importantly it's pretty quirky, experimental and clever ... I mean, that's quite some inspiration to come up with a title like that. The use of two distinctive characters shows a bit of a return to the character driven writing of SWW, with influences the band had never shown before, like The Beatles, Oasis and David Bowie. I think it's a good song, and yeah, definetly gives the album a much needed shot in the arm to stop it having three ballads in a row

It's one of my favorite songs, so I'm curious to hear others opinions.
Because it is a horrible song!

I totaly disagree!
Ever heard of David Bowie Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars?

So because it has the words And, The, and Mars in it, it must be a rip off, yes?

I wouldn't call it experimental... There's nothing original about it.
Willy the worms and Polly the parrot, that would have been original, everyone knows it's inspired by Bowie. There's nothing wrong 'bout being inspired by Bowie, he's great, but I disagree with you that the title is, experimantal, clever and that it takes a lot of creativity and inspiration to come up with a title like that.
