Fine. OK. I'm wrong. Does that make you feel all warm and fuzzy?

As long as you're willing to admit that.

There you go again contradicting yourself with the very next sentence.

Lets talk about how great comatose is some more.

For a while that was a top fiver for me. It's probably still top 10. That song does so much with so little.

It's a song that they really nailed in the studio. The live version before the album came out made me scared, but I was pleasantly surprised.

Easily my favorite song on the album. By a mile.

I can't even remember how Comatose goes right now. I guess it's pretty forgettable.

I've never been a big fan of Comatose. There are only a few songs in their catalog that I like less. And none of those are called You Are, Inside Job or Evacuation.

Evacuation is a damn fun song. But had they left it off in favor of Sad, Fatal, or (especially) In The Moonlight, I wouldn't have been angry about it. As it stands, though, I'm glad the song is on Binaural. It's a great song for that record.

Comatose isn't offensively bad or anything, but it's nothing I ever want to listen to.
