I love this song, and cannot fathom why people dislike it. Not your favorite, fine. But it's a nice performance from Eddie. Pretty good lyrics, nice subtle ukelee song, and such a great juxtaposition of upbeat jaunty music and sad subject matter. My only complaint is that Mike's guitar is too loud, but that's a small complaint.

This is a great song. Absolutely not filler. Probably number 4 for me on L-bolt

I like it. They should have ran with the country pop feel of SBM, Sirens, LTRP, and Pendulum and they probably would have made a better, more cohesive album.

Swallowed Whole isn't terrible, but it doesn't fit.

Yeah. I'm not saying it would be good. Just maybe better?

Was really pissed when I saw this on the tracklist at first. And I still would probably rather hear a totally different song on the album than this. If they were still releasing b-sides, this would have been perfect in that role.

All that being said, this is a great performance of a really nice song. 4 stars.

Everything about this rubs me up the wrong way; the idea of putting it on the record, the production, the arrangement, the guitar tones. It's all horrendous.

The arrangements are probably the best on the album. Not saying that means a lot but I really enjoy what they did with the song.

It is kind of weird how he pronounces "disaster" like "disastguh"

This is exactly the case for me as well.

Seeing this in the tracklist was disappointing back when I had hopes of the rest of the album being better. Oh, to be so young again.
