| NOV18, *thank you* for appreciating the fact that, as artists, HM are really very talented. Though they did it a bit more complexly as Braid, the time signature changes, key changes, chord structures and even guitar riffs of most songs are astounding. They're a musician's band, one that I truly appreciate. | |

| I was once told that once you reach Wednesday, you are over the "hump". I thought that was a rather funny analogy... | |

| This song rules cause Hey Mercedes pulled off an odd time signature. This in the only emo song, or non jazz/classical song that ive heard in the time signature of 7/8. And then they switch to a rockin 8/8 bridge! yeah! | |
