'Big news' on Friday according to Twitter. Must be the single dropping, it's only just over a month until the album comes out so should have something by now. I'm not a fan of the trend of releasing singles almost a year before the album drops, but this is leaving it a little late.

Yup was right. You can listen to it here http://www.xclusivejams.com/goo-goo-dolls/

First impressions are that its alright. It's grown on me since my first listen but certainly isn't as great as I'd hoped.

What is it with that overactive bass drum?

Song is pretty damn unimpressive. Sounds like Let Love In-era material crossed with EDM-leant production stylings.

Being better than Over & Over doesn't mean it's a great track.

I think it's okay, but unless the rest of the album sounds fundamentally different, this might be worse than Magnetic.

I'm really shocked at how many people (both on here and on a Goo Goo Dolls forum) I've seen knocking Magnetic. I think it's absolutely brilliant.

The production is awful for the most part and doesn't fit the songs at all. Keep The Car Running, Happiest Of Days, Come To Me are pretty good, but they don't sound all that great.

As with the last album, the songs sound a lot more organic live.
