same!
Yep, the chorus is my favourite part.
Took a drive with this song today and that chorus is so damn singable
This band has no right to make such a scorcher of a song after 30 years together (especially after what they’ve served up in the second half of their career).
Every time I listen to the second half of this song I can’t get the grin off my face - it’s like they’ve finally managed to capture the energy of their best extended jams from the 2000-2006 live eras
This is their finest opening song since Vitalogy for me and among the band's best in the catalogue. I absolutely love that section from 2:30 onwards, it's the highest point in this album.
I know a lot of people have mixed reactions about this song and the early verses aren't the strongest (especially coming out of such a wonderful intro) but whats happening in the 2nd half is so damn tasty. This will be a grower for many and may perhaps hold the key for the whole album. The chorus is growing on me too. It does have a No Code-Yield vibe to it.

Far Behind is the exact riff i thought of too as the launch platform for this song

I don’t disagree, but I like the juxtaposition. From melodic and a sense of desperate questioning to a sudden, harsh statement.

it's true, they really lock into a groove, there's a real call and response between them in parts that used to be a real PJ strength, and I've missed it
