Not heard any of these "live" of course, but from what I\'ve heard thanks to Dave and Chris, here\'s my rankings, though I should say Reel Time and Synergy are, for me, the best by a country mile, with World Needs Us, The Sound & Rush going from strength to strength. Will probably change my mind often as I hear more of these new tunes.

1. Reel Time
2. Synergy
3. World Needs Us
3. The Sound
3. Rush
6. Living Daylights
7. The Message

I too am not fussed on LD and just don\'t really like The Message  - the reggae section and rap bit just don\'t do it for me at all - take those parts out and it would be the basis of a good song.

I have to move rush up to second. the jam is too good even tho i dont like the singing. the jam overrules it.

I\'m probably in the minority here, but I really like Reel Time alot.  I love the retro sounding synth breakdown in the middle of the song, reminds me of weather report.  Overall the song;s got a good tempo, and plenty of energy.

Also the fact that I don\'t have THe Message in last either!

Tough calls other than #7.

Rush has definitely produced my favorite jams so far, World Needs Us is close behind. Synergy is just large and in charge in every way, but the jams haven\'t brought me to my knees yet. It takes the top spot because of its grand structure, (still) solid jams, and potential.

Rush = best potential for jams
World Needs Us = best lyrics... really makes you think...
The Sound = best dead-inspired tune
Synergy = most danceable, but needs some ser work
Reel Time = most "catchy" and able to "sell" to new fans - markets all strengths of the band right now - musically & vocally
Living Daylights = :vomit2: until the middle parts of the song -- too rough & hard right now, fo\' sho.
The Message = weak for the style of the band, but super fun to dance to & watch live! :shrug:

The melodic part of the Message was in my head when I awoke this morning.  
I think I can accept the other parts of this song because I really like that catchy fun part; think it will be nice to dance to outside once it gets warm out!

Tier 1 - Rush, Synergy

Tier 2 - Reel Time, The World Needs Us, The Sound

Tier 3 - The Message, Living Daylights

If they expand on the end of Reel Time and play it out a little bit longer I think it has great potential to be a Tier 1 song. I\'ve enjoyed the range of the Tier 3 songs so far but someone has to be at the bottom.

1. The Sound- Most enjoyable for me

2. World Needs Us- Lyrically stellar with SER jam potential

3. Synergy- Jammy goodness

4. The Message- Sound big as an elephant!

5. Rush- Jam is great but lyrically a dud.

6. Reel time- Even sounding UM like it has much potential to rage. Low only because I am not a UM fan.

7. Living Day Lights- This song straight sucks upon listening to the first 2 played. I kept waiting for it to get better and it just does not.

the rush singing sucks as much as the jam rocks. hard to place it.  I don\'t think it\'s really my #2 overall though.  The sound is so much easier on the ears. and LD does not suck! it\'s badass!
