I really love the song itself but the production of the studio version massively lets it down in my view.

The song itself (and from live versions) is nearly a 10. What I've heard from MX, I'd give about a 7.

It's the one true 10 on the album for me.

I would give it a 10, but the guitar needs to be louder! 9 it's ok to me.

The guitar isn't perfect and there are some other things that I wish were better. The song isn't perfect but it still deserves a 10.

I just listened to the studio version. I actually started laughing. After listening to the live performances of this song so many times, I was a bit disappointed and felt it was too complex. Maybe I need to get used to it.

I would love them to do an acoustic version of the album. Slow a few down and not over produce them so much.

Definitely feeling an Achtung Baby vibe with the album so far. Listening to it right now.

i gave it a 9

I absolutely love the studio effects though the only part i didn't like was Jonny's part inbetween the lyrics "....use your heart as a weapon and it hurts like heave" and "on every street and.....". I thought during that part that it would've been better to have his guitar part a bit more 'raw'

anyway, the part i reaaaaaally love is the "and now the streets arise". That part sounded amazing!

There is no Jonny electric guitar during the verses which makes it feel emptier. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. All I know is that this song is realllllly good :)

You feel SORRY for people who think it's the best off the album? It's an opinion.

You consistently have the most annoying, stupid and idiotic posts on here.

Probably the best on MX. Gave it a 9.

Sure it's overproduced.
Sure it's bombastic.
Sure the vocals could be better.
But it sounds like something from another world- one where it's still the 1980s!
Just listen to that explosive guitar in the verse!

10 after hearing it live, but before hearing the studio version. After I hear it Monday, it should stay the same.

10. Love love love love love!!! Oh did I mention LOVE?! Just brilliant. Heard live twice and both times stunning. Up in my top 3 faves from MX album. IMO I can completely understand about people preferring the live version but I honestly think the studio version adds a new dynamic to the song which is both funky and calm. If that makes sense?!

10. But I believe it deserves 20. Always makes my day.

Wriitten in graffiti on a bridge in a park
'Do you ever get the feeling that you're missing the mark?'
It's so cold it's so cooold
It's so cold it's so cooold
Written up in marker on a factory sign
I struggle with the feeling that my life isn't mine
It's so cold it's so cooold
It's so cold it's so cooold
See the arrow they SHOT
Trying to tear us apart
Take the fire from my belly and the beat from my heart
Still I won't let go
Still I won't let go

Of yooooouuu ooohoohhh
Cos you do
Oh YOU use your heart as a weapooooon
And it hurts like heaveeeen

It's between 9 and 8 for me but I chose 8.
Its indeed one of the album's highlights.

For me it's a solid 9.
Everything about it seems so musically perfect. Great melody, fantastic guitar work and it seems like it never stays the same anywhere in the song! Constantly evolving and changing just like the band themselves.
