even though i put the sound at 4, i think it deserves more credit than it is getting. a lot of people have been busting on it recently, but i tihnk its a really cool song. i love the 6 timing in the verses. i just think the vocals in the chorus need work (or maybe even try changing the chorus vocals completely, b/c i think this kinda ruins the vibe of the song, which is otherwise awesome).
i am positively biased on rush because i am typically someone who doesnt pay much attention to lyrics. its just the way i am. i friggin LOVE this song. i think the way it is SUNG (differece between singing and lyrics themselves) fits the song perfectly and is very in line with what i love about the breakfast.
i haven\'t had time to listen to all the new tunes yet so i can\'t vote on them. maybe someone should toss this up as a poll to see which was we like best. better yet, someone should put all these new tunes on one CD and pass them out at shows. didn\'t someone do that with moxie before it was official released? i\'d love to have all the new songs on one CD to hold me over before the new album comes out.
I changed my mind I do like the singing in rush.
The whole song is sick.
Very coil like in composed and jam style.
My list stands but it\'s a close tie between synergy and rush and others too.
1/2 Synergy/Rush
3/4 World Needs Us/Reel time

5/6 The Sound/Living Day Lights
7 The message
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!
? I don\'t understand what it is that some people aren\'t liking about Rush. What\'s wrong with the vocals? It has some of the best harmonizing that they\'ve done in a long time. In fact, I enjoyed it more acoustically rather than electric. Just something about it works better acoustically for me. Electric version rocks tho.

i think reel time is the best new one from a songwriting standpoint. hands down.
1. Living Daylights - Finally a new throat-kicker along the lines of Merge, WPOAC.
2. The Sound - A heady delight that makes me want to Sundance at the Love Lake.
3. Synergy - Classic Breakfast. The jam can go anywhere (just check out the last acoustic show)
4. The World Needs Us/Reel Time (Tie) - Welcome to the new songwriting style and sound of this band. HURRAH!
5. The Message - Definitely a different vibe, but I dig it. Especially since Tim has been wanting to write a "rap" song for some time, and Mr. Oestreicher has beat him to the punch.
6. Rush - Ooooooh Sorry Chip. I love the chippage factor in this tune, but I need to hear it some more......
hahah LD #1 and Rush #6 you own face. nice list and descriptions. LD is a throat kicker for sure. the weak and unable to hang just get kicked to the floor or out of the room all together. tpalms karate kicked a bunch of fools when they played it at castaways :asskicked evil!

N/A - Living Daylights - Haven\'t heard this one.
living daylights really doesnt do anything for me. its too heavy and not catchy IMO.

From what I have heard/seen...the top 6 are all really good. I just don\'t like the Message. Oh well, 6 outta 7 ain\'t bad.
