    It is a classic situation of “just write more lyrics for your chorus.” But I really like the vibe/melody of that song.

    Fair point. There are several tracks on this album that I'd gladly put on amongst the classic GD vs almost none from anything post AI up to this release. I guess it's just that Saviors is my 6th or 7th GD album by ranking amongst a magnificent discography. So it's all context really. Not bad in and of itself.

    Finally got to the bonus tracks too and they're really solid, Stay Young and Ballyhoo are really good and Smash It and Underdog are fun. Fuck Off is kinda goofy lol

    An inconsequential shift as the continents drift.

    yeah it's not in my top 5 or anything, I just think it has a pretty high ceiling for a band 30 years deep in their discog haha

    Stay Young is almost great but god that hook gets repetitive, really needed literally any other words in there just to break it up

    Pls have FIDLAR produce their next album. Just making things a little messier elevates the soul of the song, even a kinda weak song.

    I dunno who FIDLAR is but this version is definitely messier sounding and I like it.

    A year or two pre-pandemic, I saw Sugar Ray at this tiny venue in Pasadena California. Towards the end of the show, Art Alexakis from Everclear comes out from the wings of the stage and they announced that he’s gonna help sing a Sugar Ray song. Everyone is excited and clapping and the sugar ray guitarist pulls this exact same move as this kid at the Green Day concert and starts playing the opening riff to Santa Monica and it could’ve been a well acted bit, but Art Alexakis looked immediately uncomfortable and he told him to stop. Lol.

    Correction: Art Alexakis came out and played the song with Lit who opened for Sugar Ray. Here’s the video:
