"Believe" is a great song and I agree that it's better than some of the songs that did make the album but I think that since Undivided was on the album, they didn't want two songs on there that were CLEARLY about 9-11. Granted, the band has said that Everyday and Bounce were influenced by it as well but the refrences in those two don't jump right out at the listener where as with Undivided and Believe you'd pretty much have to be dead to not catch on to what the lyrics are about. They may have though they were too similar in that way.

Just my two cents...

Come one - the riff is class!! - even if it does sound a bit stereophonical

I'm not too fond of Lucky, but most of the other demo's we've heard coudv'e made the album. It was only about 50 minutes long, so they could have added another couple of tracks easily.
agree....but instead of Lucky id rather have No Regrets

Stereophonical? Is that a recognised English word now?

I think these are just opinions, and btw, it's true, Bounce (a very good album in my opinion) should be better with some substitutions or adds.

This is my "best Bounce"

01. Alive
02. Undivided
03. We can dance
04. Everyday
05. Another reason to believe
06. Misunderstood
07. Right side of wrong
08. Hook me up
09. Breathe
10. Standing
11. All about lovin' you
12. No regrets
13. Open all night
14. Love me back to life
15. Bounce

I think there would be no problems with a 15 tracks album, just because the average lenght of the tracks is of 4 minutes.
And always IMO with this sequence of singles the album should have did very better in the charts:

1st - STANDING
2nd - MISUNDERSTOOD
3rd - EVERYDAY
4th - BREATHE or WE CAN DANCE (differntly edited with a guitar solo)
5th - BOUNCE

What do you think?
Bye!
