3 years later and this is one of the only ones on the album that held up for me. Johnny Guitar is decent too.

Unthought Known and Amongst the Waves have gone downhill for me.
To be honest, I really didn't like ATW from the get go.

GSMF is still "fun" for me, though.

Am I the only one around here that thinks GSMF is not THAT good?
Its okay for me, but I'd rather have a Got Some than a GSMF...
I DO think it lacks a good solo, and I think that Eddie should scream a little bit less.
I mean, when I heard the preview (that was just the last chorus, when he use the "deeper" voice [don't know the real therm]), I though it was really good, and really different from what the band did so far. But when I heard the final product, and it was just a scream fest, it kinda disappointed me...

Still a 3/5 for me.

whoa, whoa. Let's not just throw "3's" around when ranking any song on Backspacer.

Yes.

This and Johnny Guitar are still favourites.

Oh, I think this one might be a 3.

Still a good track. When Eddie drops the melody into a lower register on the chorus it sounds really good, and the bridge completely makes the song for me. This would make a good closing track for a set sometime.
