I think this song, along with Walk Like A Man, is the best song to never make an album. I hadn't listened to it in a while but it came on my Itunes recently and I remembered why I loved it so much. I just found out it was written by Jon alone which wasn't a suprise to me, judging by the lyrical content. This should have been on Crush for sure.

Your thoughts?

It's one I have only listened to casually. Not a great ballad, but probably still better than Save the World. IMO.

Really? As far as I knew, it was co written by Desmond and Mark Hudson and had Jon's solo band playing on it. At least that's what ascap.com tells me. But still. Gets a yay from me.

Yeah I like it. Another one that could have made that album a little better.

I think that's their best ballad since This Ain't A Love Song

GREAT song. Not too keen on the bridge though.

It's a ok song, I like the verse and the melody, but there's something missing. The bridge could have been much better.
