I can't get enough of these songs, especially the live versions.....sorry for the post, just thought I would announce that to the world!

Discuss...the fact that these songs kick serious ass..

I love Gone, 2nd all-time fav song...Come Back took me awhile, still quite good though. Loved it live in SD.

As much as I love the SD show on a whole (best I have heard from the US legs)...I think the Camden version is better.

haven't heard it yet.

I can't even see how the 2 songs could be compared. Gone is pretty weak, and Come Back is just stellar.

They are not being compared...they just happen to be 2 songs that get a lot of time on my system lately.

P.S. calling gone weak is like admitting you like the Backstreet Boys - so smarten up.

I'm glad you like the song, but saying that because I don't that makes me a Backstreet Boys fan is, well, weak.

As you can read, I didn't call you a Backstreet fan...I said that saying "Gone" is weak is like admitting you like the Backstreet Boys...meaning a mistake only fools make. Better make sure you re-think that opinion.

I'm no fool, so....Gone is my new favorite song! Hooray!

Please don't patronize me...it doesn't have to be a favourite song...but calling it weak is beyond comprehension....like being a Backstreet fan...but hey, you probably watched the Newlyweds too...so what can I say?

Dude, I'm only fucking joking with you. Lighten up, man. Since my first post in this thread I've only tried to be lighthearted.

And for the record, I called it weak in relation to all the other songs on the new album, especially Come Back. I'm of the opinion that Gone is one of the weaker songs of the batch. Friends?

Only if you can accept that you are wrong and then promise to listen to Gone (live versions about 10 times in a row...and then repeat until you get it).

I am not trying to be an ass...but come on...you can't call a great song weak and get away with it.

As a friend, I urge you to reconsider your thoughts.

I will try to see the errors of my ways and honestly give the song some more chances, friend. *promises*

And no, I'm not patronizing you.

the only thing weaker than gone is this thread.

earth angel earth angel, will you be mine?

fixed it for you.

Gone was one of my favorites when it first came out (I LOVED the chorus--it's been way too long since they had a chorus that soared like that, but it hasn't aged that well for me. I like it, but it is probably a bottom three on the record for me.

Come back is nice, but the first seven songs on this album are where it's at (and parachutes and unemployable were NOT songs I liked much when I first heard them. They really grew on me)

Come Back is awesome, and Gone isn't that bad. Good songs for sure

i like come back wayyyyyy more. but they are both good enough for my ears
