| I'm surprised that there aren't more comments on this song. It rocks ass and is probably my favorite popes song. My boyfriend loves the bucket seat part too... | |

| i love this song. unfortunately they won't ever play it anymore, not that they play shows much since their breaking up, but i saw their reunion show at the Flower15 in Chicago and they didn't play it. And my boyfriend said they won't since the lead singers found Jesus. or something like that. | |

| This is bar none the best song ever written about relationships. Its all-encompassing simplicity gives it a universality that every one can relate to, and the way Josh sings it is just too perfect. | |

| They still play this song all the time. In fact, I've only seen them twice since they broke up and they've started their set with it both times. | |
