I gave it an 8/10 but i believe it can turn into a 9/10 really soon! I'm starting to like Chris's voice distortion

Tryptophan · 23-06-2011, 10:36 PM

After hearing the live version, I'd have rated it a 9 or even a 10. Now I've rated it 7.
9-10 for the live version and 3-4 for the studio version, the live version being more important of course.

7/10

Good song, but I wish the last minute or so wasn't so overproduced.

^ It seems you don't listen radio. Right after premier on BBC they played Foster The People - Pumped Up Kicks and I found this song superior to MM.

the_escapist · 23-06-2011, 10:42 PM

7/10

Liked more the live version.

Quite frankly people don't have to listen to one song after the other to be tagged as someone who doesn't listen to radio. Who gives a flying fuck whether people listen to the radio or not? If they're not they're probably listening to the greatest albums of all time while you listen to your shit that is Foster The People.

Eh . . . the live version is definitely a 10/10 no question. Could've been my all-time favorite song.

The studio version does too things wrong: it distorts Chris's voice and it takes away the echoes that were so awesome in the live versions. I give it a 7.5/10.

All in all, both versions considered, I give it an 8/10

EDIT: Although I have to admit that the vocals are slowly growing on me

mrman78 · 23-06-2011, 10:52 PM

I really like the song, but yeah, the distorted voice is unnecessary... 8/10

Squish92 · 23-06-2011, 11:05 PM

7/10. It feels like it has just sort of become the B-Side it is. Fantastic, regardless.

You missed the point. Like always.

Really not digging it to be honest... I'm liking 'Charlie Brown' and 'ETIAW' but this? Not so much.

the_gloaming09 · 24-06-2011, 12:05 AM

here's my take from the WoM

I like the song more than ETIAW... then again I'd like almost anything more than that.

But I really hate that distorted vocals. Also I really don't like the melody of the verses and the lyrics... I find it to be a bit annoying to be honest. I do like the chorus bit somewhat. But to me this song has U2 written all over it. Also his vocals during the bridge is extremely annoying how high up he gets.

The song is mediocre. Not a huge fan of it, but it's not horrible.

I'd give the song a 4/10

the_escapist · 24-06-2011, 12:16 AM

two words to rate this song: GREAT B-SIDE!

Major_Love · 24-06-2011, 12:36 AM

10 points...the only possible choice FOR ME!
