You can hear Stone in the left speaker playing a melodic guitar part underneath Mike's main part in the outro

Re: Won't Tell
This song was meant for the Radio
Although, I think it might be weird to follow up Dark Matter and Wreckage with this one.
It almost seems like they need to release Waiting for Stevie first and then follow that up with Won't Tell
Either way...I can totally hear this being a big radio song on all formats Pop, Rock & even Country
This one really shines with headphones
Opening lick is definitely evokes U2, but that Outro lick is totally paying homage to The CURE

Big All That You Can't Leave Behind energy here
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

"in my dream you told
me to let the longing go,
and the promise I still hold:
won't tell a soul"

This is one where they said “what if we make a song that’s ALL HOOKS?”

Re: Won't Tell
This is totally single-worthy. I can see this having great success too. Especially on Adult Alternative format. This is one of the best ballads I’ve heard from them. Who knows they may release more than three radio singles this time. I could see this and another rocker like Scared of Fear or React, Respond too.Clem Halibut wrote:This song was meant for the Radio

Re: Won't Tell
Won’t Tell is one of my favorites from DM. Honestly, they could release any one of the 11 tracks as a single lol.

Re: Won't Tell
I still think this has heavy Infallible vibes. The slower/groovier verses with the super poppy chorus.
