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".

Those lyrics are hard to match up to though. You don't get much deeper than "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah".

I am quite enjoying a bit of a different style with Ed's vocals at the ends of the verses. Surely I'm not the only one picking up on this. I've never heard him do it before. (I don't think).

I'm not musically inclined enough to put a term on what I am hearing but definitely picking up a different vocal style in various parts of the song.

Like it a lot, but it should've been much heavier.

This has been a problem with PJ's rockers for like a decade.

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.

i like the "we could something else" part. That first line is weird though.

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.

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