Hmmmmm, my opinion of Complicated has gone down somewhat since this thread was first posted. I still quite like it, it's still catchy and relatable (is that a word?), especially the "Is there anybody out there just like me?" bit, but it hasn't stood the test of time too brilliantly. And I don't need to hear it live again

Not a fan.
There are a few good lyrics, but on a whole it's just not good.
I'd take ANYTHING from HAND over it (except Wildflower), and let's not even get into the older stuff...

Sometimes I grow to appreciate a song after a while. Not Complicated. It reeked two years ago and it STILL reeks.

It's pure garbage, the worst song on HAND. Love that album but that song is the lowlight by some distance. The lyrics are just unbelievably embarrassing. HAND's WGIGO.

Haven't they always done songs like this ("Mama keep on prayin' coz I ain't changin'")? Anyway I like it because I can still relate to it but I have to say, a masterpiece it sure ain't.
