Aw fuc, this one is gonna be tough

This is Stones last great riff against one of PJ's coolest and sexiest songs.

Would you go so far as to say that sometimes Rival burns like a dot on the sun?

I'm probably going to listen to all of Binaural tomorrow just so I can get to this one song. God damn, thinking about it makes me want to listen to it.

Same. It's one of PJ's most brutal songs, in my mind.

Before I listened to the songs again I thought I was leaning You Are. It's just so unique for their catalogue and I love the groove.

But God Damn. Rival is PJ at their very best. It's that anger and aggression with melody that signifies who they are so very well. I'd love to see it go far.

You Are is kinda terrible. It would've been more interesting as an instrumental.
