Yeah I don't care about that. If this album was top shelf I'd care if a song felt out of place. But I'm not going to say this song should have been left off the album when Sirens is still there.

I absolutely love how the snare and the rest of the drums only come into the song on the first instrumental break.

I like this arrangement more every time I listen to it. Really like how tightly Stone, Jeff, and Matt are intertwined here.

I hope Ed introduces it by saying "I can't see this turning out right."
