Seriously guys, this song is beautiful, and you're all cunts for bashing it.

While I agree, it's one of my least favorite tracks on Yield. Ten years ago I would have defended it to the death. It fits on the album, but it doesn't seem to fit on any setlists, despite the extended ebow trickery or whatever that sound is.

If you subscribe to a "less is more" worldview, this song is pretty much what life is all about.

Reid, I love it when they play it live. I don't see it as a set killer at all. When the mirror ball drops and the lighters come out I just hope for some character building Eddie lyric flubs and an extended outro.

I'm not sure they did that in Houston the times they visited back in the early 00s.

They did a really great version in Albany 03.
