My station(s) played a clip of this the other day.
It sounds like it's going to be in the vein of their past "lighter" singles such as "Big Me", "Learn to Fly", "Times Like These" and "Long Road to Ruin".

^So I'm guessing you didn't like "Miracle" very much? And thanks for posting the single cover. It reminds me of the artwork from Staind's greatest hits CD.

I don't think I've even heard "Miracle". And if I have I don't remember it...

Yeah, I barely remember "Miracle" myself.
"Resolve" was pretty good though.

This is a midtempo...but it's a really great midtempo.

^Is "Learn to Fly" your favorite from them? I meant that in the sense that it's the first one since then to really grab your attention. My personal favourite is "All My Life".

My favorite would have to "Everlong", though "The Pretender" is pretty close. I just wish my station didn't kill it with all of the overplay.

I'm surprised that I like this a lot. NOT disappointing like a shitton of rock singles lately.

Yes. But these guys have never disappointed with any lead single in their long career. So I figured a greatest hits single was no exception. Top 5 on alternative! 16 5 FOO FIGHTERS Wheels RCA/RMG 2009 1547 1007 540 Top 10 on active: 24 10 FOO FIGHTERS Wheels RCA/RMG 2009 1040 523 517 On Mainstream Rock: 23 13 FOO FIGHTERS Wheels RCA/RMG 2009 157 57 100

The chords are kind of nice. They're mellow but stop short of "feel good". I don't like the chorusing in the vocals especially in the B-section though, and the chorus is lame.

Someone said to me this sounded like a vintage Bon Jovi song. :-\ I don't really hear it.

Yeah, I don't get that vibe either. The lady on the radio always says that it has a "Tom Petty feel" to it. I don't know if I can agree or not.

I actually really like this. I'd say it's better than "Long Road to Ruin", "Let It Die", and "Walk".
