Sorry, I misread your post. I originally understood that you were referring to what you were gonna do tomorrow and ask him in that way. I need to read more carefully....

It's been many posts back that someone mentioned someone who works with Coldplay worked on this album. I definitely got a Coldplay vibe from Knockout, not in a ripping them off sense but just in a you can hear the influence way. BTW I don't like Coldplay. I think all their songs (I've heard) sound the same.

Those sound effects, the timings, the cliche lens flare... It feels like something out of a student's high school project from 10 years ago. Maybe it's because of the field I work in, but even I could do better.

Reading this...

...does anybody else think that there is really strange stuff going on? The Bon Jovi website is full of the THINFS single and album pre order, we get amateurish videos on facebook and a Q&A, while there is a new single released at the same time without any promotion? Knockout is not even mentioned once on the official FB page, besides by fans in the commentary section.
As far as I can tell, this song is one of the songs I would estimate to be most capable of reaching non-fans, compared to other recent Bon Jovi material.

I'm sorry but I actually really like Knockout. It definitely grows on you... I'm listening to it with Beats Headphones and it's gonna sound incredible in a Stadium/Arena.

It feels like since the label is only being used for distribution they hired a company to do the marketing side. Nothing about these videos feel like a label paid for thing.

Add me in to the group that digs Knockout. Cool track!

Listening to it again, the chorus reminds me a bit of 'somebody told me' by the killers. I've always dug that kind of continuous forward moving ongoing melody

Hi guys..
Been a silent reader on this forum since Crush and finally registered in this forum..
love to join you all with the new song..

Remind me a bit of Adam Lambert song..just a bit but to see they have the guts to create a new sound this is definitely will be a colorful album to me, can't wait to see the whole songs of THINFS..

Wonder why the release this Knockout after THINFS, it sounds totally different when you put this 2 singles on a playlist and you get to listen to it, it's very different and that's great to me and it;s growing on me, bit awkward at first but this will be a great soundtrack,,and hearing it reminds me of the Rocky Balboa running down the street lol..

anyway new sounds looks promising :D

I was thinking the same thing actually! It somewhat reminds me of the soundtrack for Rocky IV - you know, Burning Heart, Hearts on Fire etc.
