Thomas - A song that has always somehow managed to stay in the minds, and questions of our most loyal supporters. Though a bit of a different flavor for us, I believe this song lends itself to being a precursor for some of our more melodic, and more structured songs that would begin to appear later on as staples of our repertoire.
Andrew - This was a big "will we/won't' we" question for us when we were deciding to do this album. It's such a departure from every other song from that era that it felt a bit out of place to include. We ultimately included it because it is essential to who we were at that time, and also because we all love the song. The lyrics are an attempt at a "Song About An Angel" (by Sunny Day Real Estate) conversational style. I struggled with wanting to update the lyrics, but I think for the purpose of the album (to show the beginning and present of a band) it was important to keep them unchanged.

I searched for "mirrors are more fun than television" hoping to find somenthing about Max Payne and ended up finding this, no regrets

The original song gives me chills every time. This one is great too but doesn't seem to capture that for me. I think it has a lot to do with the maturity of this one.

My fave 30 years war demo, such raw and young voices in the old version.

The 02:24 riff hit me right in the childhood! The only thing I miss is the, "She said!" gang vocal.

This song definitely gave fans a sneak peek at future melodic ideas you guys pursued. ❤️ love it. I’ve heard this song tons of times but it seems new to me now. I love you guys reimagined these pieces of the finest art around.

This became my favorite song ever after I first heard it on KZfaq in 2011. I was really anxious about the band remaking it, but they killed it 🤘

@@SPITSTERYEA I like DGD too (especially when I was 12-13) but I listen to them a lot less now after the whole Tillian drama. I still try to separate the art from the artist at times but it’s hard not to think about haha. RIP Tim
