Long Nights is quite good, and I love Eddie's deep voice on it, which echoes the long night sentiment perfectly. But it can't stand up to Can't Keep, maybe the best of those kinds of low key Eddie mood pieces from the middle period

The organ volume pedal swells at the end of Can’t Keep are boom’s best contribution to the band. Such a cool moment.

Can't Keep. This song has always felt under the radar to me, but I would also argue that it's one of the best things on Riot Act.

I'll join you if you want. I don't really like Can't Keep.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
