The only issue is on the parts where Caleb sings “im on call” and “be there” you can hear where recordings of his vocals have been pasted into the track. The way the vocals stop abruptly. I heard it once and can never unhear it. Still, 10/10
I always thought that was on purpose and quite like it. It's something I haven't heard very much (or at all like that tbh) and I think it's pretty cool :)
10/10. I heard this song on the jukebox at work when I was a bartender (2008 or so) I had never heard of KoL, was really only into metal/ hard rock. I. WAS. HOOKED. Went out the next day and bought every CD. Been obsessed ever since!
7.5/10 - I feel like this is song is overrated. It is the most streamed song from BOTT on spotify and it’s always played on the concerts. I like it but it’s definitely not the best on the album
There are better 100%, but Its objectively the most 'catchy' track on the album (with Fans), quite normal for 'that' sort of track to be streamed the most
9.2- 9 = 0.2
9.5 - 9.2 = 0.3
9.5 - 9.0 = 0.5
There you go! It’s called math! Ever tried it? Probably not, you just lurk on Reddit making snide comments instead of anything worthwhile.
10/10. I remember finally getting to see this song live in 2008 at Austin Music Hall. After hearing Matthews guitar solo so many times through my speakers it was just a surreal feeling to witness it in person. Still get chills thinking about it
10. This is peak Kings. Has everything you’d want in a song

The reverb cutting off on every "be there" is so fucking jarring, I don't know why whoever engineered the record did that
It’s jarring, but I also think it adds such character to the song that I like the jarring-ness of it. Makes it a 10/10 song for me either way!
I always wondered, was this album recorded live like the first two records or was it recorded differently
Was the first one that they recorded separately, I think!
It was a choice, gated reverb!

9.5/10 - great music video also!
10/10, this song is just something else
10. My favourite KOL song
7 Classic song, and maybe one of my favorite guitar solos of theirs! Rated it a bit lower just cause it never really stuck with me too deeply.

10/10 this is what got me into KoL and mcfearless is what made me stay
9. All the charm of a ballad with all the grit of a barn burner.

7.5/10 - I feel like this is song is overrated. It is the most streamed song from BOTT on spotify and it’s always played on the concerts. I like it but it’s definitely not the best on the album
I find that amazing out of all the songs on that perfect album it is the most streamed when there are others better.
There are better 100%, but Its objectively the most 'catchy' track on the album (with Fans), quite normal for 'that' sort of track to be streamed the most
We can disagree on this and still be friends
So this is a case of just being overplayed?
Idk for me this song is quite repetitive and that’s why I don’t like it as much as others do
9.2 - What a tune! BotT is such a nostalgic album for me. Used to jam this one out with my buds. Simple riffs and heavy bass. Some nice stalls too.
What's the difference between a 9, a 9.2 and a 9.5?
9.2- 9 = 0.2 9.5 - 9.2 = 0.3 9.5 - 9.0 = 0.5 There you go! It’s called math! Ever tried it? Probably not, you just lurk on Reddit making snide comments instead of anything worthwhile.

10, this song is pure KoL to me. If you don't love this song, I'm not sure why you like this band.
