Aloha !

Not that good. The "I'll be there to talk you down..." line doesn't work for me. It's too over the top.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

It's a good song. I think the verses/bridge are better than the chorus. Some nice fancy-free guitar work. It would be a 7/10 song if i had to rate it. ;)

One of my favorite songs on these days. I'll be the one sending obie continuous requests for it and holding up a sign for it. The chances are slim to none as it has never been done live, but hey, we did get stick to your guns last year...

Love it, always have. Contrary to what Seb said I think that the bridge is great, but the best part of the song has to be the outro that wont end, I wish the band still did outros like that

I used to listen to this song all of the time a few years back. Great song and it would be great if it was played live.

It's a good song, the rhythm part is excellent. And I have a personal story related to it. My first copy of These Days had some scratches or whatever and it would never play If That's What it Takes...so first time I have properly heard it must have been by the time Crush came out. Even to this day, I have a weird feeling when I play These days and ITWIT kicks off.

Brilliant song.

And wrongly underated. Yeah that's right, I'm saying your opinions are wrong ITWIT haters.

I completely agree and not only do I love the outro but in all I think it's a great song.

Completely underrated song IMO.

Fits perfectly on TD as it has different styles on it (for example, Hey God vs SFTP). Its on the same line concerming sound-wise (voice-wise) as SFTP, Damned and maybe Heart Breaking even and the album needed another song like that at the end of it.
