Yea wtf, not sure why so fast.

Wasn't there one or more arguments somewhere here, where the speed-up issues were blamed on Matt or other members of the band?

I thought that just related to pre-Matt songs

THis song needed another session.

Intro/lyrics/vocals could be alot better!!!!!

ITs a good song that could of been a great song!!!

the lyrics are very strong, and eddie's vocals are excellent. The only part of this song that isn't stellar is the main riff in the verse.

Maybe my favorite vocals on the album. The drums could be a bit better. The riff could be a bit better, but I do always find it playing in my head, so it must be pretty good. I really enjoy the solo.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the way they play Mind Your Manners, it's a fast rock song.

I think EV needs to stop getting so old, so he can keep up.

Really though, I think things have changed as we age too. Back in the early days, when they played songs like Lukin faster - most of the fans were excited and revved up by it.

Now that we're old and cynical, we're more critical of what they do. When they play a song faster, we notice the mistakes and strain a lot more, and our response is: "Come on PJ, that's not how you play your fucking song, play the song right".

Lyrics could of done with another re -write !!

The intro could of been epic!!

I run to the Lord
please hide me Lord
Don't you see me prayin'?
Don't you see me down here prayin'?
But the Lord said
go to the devil

I wish the intro was also the outro

Yeah. The intro is the best part of this track.

And its only used once in the song, that pisses me off.

the intro is the outro--it's just played faster.

Yep, the lead guitar is playing the same part as the intro.
