Song of the Moment: Mind Your Manners

[Thejambi]

This is a cool song. Do you guys like?

Its hard to imagine myself liking this song more then i do

Let's speculate. What would it be like?

[Thejambi]

When we heard the snippet of MIND YOUR MANNERS that sounded really metal, I was worried. For me, that hard part mixed with the rest of the music in the song works for me. I like this song a lot. That bridge (2nd chrous?) Is really fun, and I enjoy Ed singing it with the abrupt stops.

3.5/5 from me. I like it better than Supersonic, if that helps.

Also, why is Amongst the Waves getting trashed? It's a great song!

It is a great song. It's classic PJ. Way better than the utterly bland "Force of Nature" that seemingly every PJ fan other than myself worships.

This.

dafaq? Force of Nature is a really nice track. The keys in that song really do it for me. I love it.

It's a nice song, and I like the keys in that verse most of all, but it's not technically as good as ATW for me.

I can dig on that. Totally agree.

Except, sorry, I shouldn't have said 'for me' because I was being objective.

I don't think we need to be objective in THIS thread.

No, OK, you're right. I'll rein it in.

That's a matter of personal aesthetics.

god damn you. is it that obvious?

its faster to list all the songs that rise above crap: Johnny Guitar.

[Juvenal]

Still enjoying MYM. It's fun

[HardTI]

I'd still throw The End, Force of Nature, and Got Some above crap. Some just barely.

[harmless]

Johnny Guitar might be the only Backspacer song to stand the test of time, imo. My wife doesn't like it either, but she's less patient with PJ these days. She's blanketly dismissed Backspacer as not good enough, and who can blame her?

[stupidmop]

self-realized and metaphysically redeemed
may not live another life
may not solve a mystery
right around the corner
could be bigger than ourselves
we could will it to the sky
or we could something else

If it really is "we could something else" (it sounds kinda muddled to me), then that's my least favourite lyric on this thing, especially since it sits so awkwardly on the music. But maybe that's the point, with a lyric like that.

that might be my favorite lyric. goes along with the whole "who the hell knows" of it all. it fits.

It's meant to be funny and lazy, imo. Part of the humour. "Well, uh, we could do this, or that, or we could do... somethin' else."

yep, that too.

Yup, I know what it's trying to do, but for me it doesn't quite hit the right mark. I like the lyrics though, even if they don't match up to "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah".

I'm with you. Maybe if he had just drifted off and said "something else" it could have worked for me Idk.

I'd throw in gonna see my friend and got some if I'm feeling agreeable.

Do people not like the end? I think its a really good song but i don't see it mentioned with the best of backspacer

Johnny Guitar would be a lot more palatable to me if the Lyrics were better.
