Oh man...singing fast I thought he sang "When something's front, I wanna put a little side on it" on the 'bored' line and I was wondering how I ever missed such a bad lyric.

Im happy that wasn't real, not that the real ones were all that much better.

Also this is one of the most engrossing vids of this type Ive seen lol

It is one of the better "when 'x' happens, the song gets faster/deeper/louder, etc."

Also, welcome back, MJD, it's nice to see you around these parts again, enlivening the PJ discussion section.

It's always a pleasure to have the opportunity to have the chance to listen to the fixer.

Putting Scott Weiland as the cover image was a nice touch.

I find it funny that it's a song about Ed's need to fix things, on a song that he changed so much from Matt's demo
