i swear i dl'd this new song from hearing it on XM the other day and on my walk's i play it like 5 times in a row. i love the lyrics especially and think it is a great rock song to come out in awhile.

I'll admit, i'm a fan, and prefer the hard rock songs they do, but i am not that big a fan of the power ballads, and this song is one imo. ie, not a big fan of it with a first listen (i didn't even know they were working on new stuff.

I listened to it, thought it was kinda catchy.
It's going to be played on the radio (avoid the radio) to death, just like the Photograph song. I will be sick of it before the album comes out for sure.
And no way is it "true rock". It's 100% get me laid pop rock.

it will be played to death on the pop stations for sure bc that is who Nickelback is now, but the lyrics are really good and cut above the crap that is played. imo anyway. it is just true stuff.

Downloaded it from Amazon for 5 Pepsi points, really love this song, love this band, coming from an 80's hair metal fanatic that i am this band gives me the catchy pop/rock/metal hook's i so desire in today's crappy music scene, by the way anyone know when the new album comes out.

So this where the Nickelback lovers on the internet come to escape the constant Nickelback hatred. Figures. 
I don't think the song is any good. Now, "How You Remind Me"... that's a guilty pleasure and (unfortunately) catchy as hell.
