Nobody is remotely helping this song by talking about "staying power" six weeks after it came out. Its a bit too much like saying "I still really like her," after the third goddamn date.

If I still like a song after 6 weeks - it's got staying power. I hate most new songs after the first week or 2.

I heard it on 92.9 when I was flipping through my presets the other day. I'm usually either listening to WBUR or Sports Hub.

I hate AAF so much. They haven't been good since Opie & Anthony left.

In the long-run, I'm expecting MYM to be a really enjoyable filler song in the context of the album, like the less remarkable ones on Riot Act. Unless it's the best song on the album, in which case... fuck, we're all doomed.

MYM is quite good. If every song was at this quality I'd be thrilled
