  • It\'s a fucking amazing song. Screw you if you don\'t like it. No bands at the moment are making such great tunes.

  • Lightweights, huh? I think it is actually very ballsy to take such a risky shift. I guess Bowie, The Pet Shop Boys, and The Talking Heads’ sound was horrible too? No freaking way. This is fresh, good, and courageous...no matter who did it. Not the same ol, same ol. A+++

  • I quite like it, not bad, but not quite good enough to release on single. Makes a nice change from their early piano based tracks.
