You Are has always been my favorite Riot Act song. I'm glad it's going to advance.

I love You Are (and that's what I voted for) but Infallible is definitely on my short list for most under-appreciated PJ songs by the RM community. Head scratcher :shake:

Infallible might be my favorite post RA era song.

Infallible has great verses but a pretty weak chorus. It could've been a really great song, but as-is it turned out good but not great. 3.5 stars. You Are is maybe 5 stars.

"Infallible" isn't even close to being the best post-RA song, you rubes.

Might be. I'd have to look around for a bit and think of others. I also get sort of confused about the order of the late albums sometimes.

You Are is one of my favorites. That Live at the Garden one is great.

Still a very good song. Like so much of l-bolt it's very solid but doesn't reach its potential

I didn't like You Are when I first heard it. I wasn't a fan of the drum machine sounds. As time has gone on, this number has climbed up the ranks, and it's the easy winner in this match up.

You Are is great, but I like Infallible cheesy chorus and all. It's probably top 3-5 post Riot Act.

It really owns its cheesy chorus though, and that's part of the point. It's heart on sleeve optimism.
