| This song is pretty catchy (I'm glad I'm not that guy). the video will be nice, but I would have rather had Kiwi (though it would probably turn out to be porn). As long as they make a music video for a slow song (preferably Better That We Break or, if not that, Goodnight, Goodnight), I'll be happy. | |

| That's really sweet what he did on the drums. I just noticed that, thanks for bringing it up. Awesome song. Not my favorite, but for sure one of the best ones from the album. | |

| I'm glad i finnallly found the right lyrics! i dont know if u guys noticed but i searched for their lyrics recently in some sites and some of them were wrong! i was reading something while listening to something else..it stunned me coz i was sure 100% that the name of the song was right. anyway! wake up call is one of the best songs in their new album, it has such simple and catchy lyrics. you should also listen to Goodnight Goodnight | |

| It really sounds like Backstreet Boys or smth like that. And these lyrics.. they're rather stupid, but I can't help loving this song. The way Adam sings "I don't think so" makes me shiver) The guys are cool. But for me lyrics are still stupid) | |

| I agree with SparksOfGold & Skyline Evo8. I think he was being totally sarcastic in that last verse. Like, "oops, should I not of done that? Oops, his heart's still beating." kind of like he's like 'crap, i meant to kill him' I love this song. | |

| Without the catchy hooks and poppy beat this would be one hell of a dark song! The guy gives his girl a warning about what he could be capable of if she "betray"s him with another man. She obviously doesn't pay too much attention to this because he goes on to find her in bed with some other guy. In a crazed fit of jealousy he shoots him. He is satisfied by doing so with the sinister assurance that "he won't come around here anymore". He tries to convinces himself that he doesn't "feel so bad", but then he starts regretting what he's done: "Did I do the wrong thing? / Oh, what was i thinking?". Very dramatic & very Hollywood, with the potential for an awesome music video. | |

| Ah, this might be the first non fan-based opinion on the song! Well, wat I ave to say isn't pretty, so don't read on if you like these guys.... wen I first heard this, I thought, "Now they're homicidal!?!" Well, upon closer inspection, he has a reason to shoot him dead"!.... but it's that he caught him with his girlfriend. Ok, first of all, the lead has a wife now. Who I'm suprised doesn't find this video highly sketchy. I desperately hope this guy doesn't decide to have kids, or they're live with some very WRONG ethics and morals.... | |

| without a doubt the most catchy jam on the album, a lil more emotion than Makes Me Wonder, and a good beat to go with it small correction ... end of first verse: 'so who the the hell are you to say we never would have made it baby' | |

| This was the first song of their new album I got really attached too. I agree with the others who said it was a dark song, as it clearly is. I have a great, heart-pumping memory of me running in the rain while this song was playing. It felt good. I'm still trying to decide whether the last verse is sarcastic or not. I guess we'll just have to wait for the music video to see. | |

| Great, fast-paced song. I love in the video how the man his girlfreind is cheating on him with is big and tough looking and Adam walks in and looks like he's going to punch him then instead walks out of the room, gets a pistol and shoots him. | |

| Have any of you noticed how right after he says "So don't say a word", and then Matt on the drums makes the drums sound like a gunshot. I love that, just noticed it when i listened to it last. I'll be so excited when this becomes a single. this is an awesome album. | |
