on kroq right now update

[$lmjimy311]

this song is getting better and better the more i listen to it, though there are parts i still hate (the part right before the chorus and the beginning lyrics), but aside from that i love it

especially the break down, god that part is sooooo good

[flyersfan900]

I'm all about the breakdown, but I'm not so sure about the first verse or whatever you call the part before the first chorus

[$lmjimy311]

yea that first part kinda sucks

[Freeze Time]

I can't fault this song one bit. It has everything I love about 311. To me this is probably the best 311 single since down. Its just so uplifting and positive. That bridge/breakdown is breath taking, its really different for 311 , kind of reminds me of something Smashing pumpkins would do. Its awesome.

[FrixHex311]

i love the first part. hard rock into an actual reggae feeling jam instead of some crappy attempt to be reggae

[$lmjimy311]

i wonder if the breakdown part is the pinkfloyd influence nick mentioned

[greenmonkey911]

anyone catch this in the last chorus?

"MUSIC, you're my constant companion" ... the song is an ode to music!

[FrixHex311]

duh.

yah that breakdown is pink floyd esque

[greenmonkey911]

duh.

Ain't it a breath of fresh air to have a love song be about something other than the opposite sex?

yah that breakdown is pink floyd esque

It reminds me more of the Transistor album as a whole than it reminds me of Pink Floyd.

[flyersfan900]

I'm not a huge Pink Floyd fan or anything, but I didn't really hear anything Floydesque in that song

[Jordan311]

fuck yea! I put it on my ipod and listened to it in the car. It FUCKING ROCKS.
the bass in it is soooo sick. It definitely passes the car test.

Like the song. To me it combines all the 311's best traits. I hear a little bit of all the albums on this one.

Here are the lyrics as best I can hear them.:

Hey You:

You've changed your tune many times
since we've met
but i'll always recognize you
you are a part of me
i feel you
whether in Jamaica or in the angel city
your such a gift to me

(Chorus)
Hey you
I gotta tell ya my long time friend
I think of all those years you saw me through tears and the good times that we spend
Hey you
Your my constant companion
You always let me explain just what I'm saying
and we've just begun

I've got one wish for this music
to be an uplift
And I need an uplift to deal
There are few songs all the people can sing along, one song
Come along and sing it for real

(Chorus)

As I wonder around
Town to town
Lost and Found
When so many others come and go
The sweetness pulls me through

(Chorus)
You never turn your back on me
when I gave up on myself (x2)
What would the world be like
with you around me
Music, your my constant companion

[Jordan311]

It's definitely an uplifting track.
It gave me that warm fuzzy feeling that only a 311 song can give me. Haven't felt that in a while! And of course the whole time I'm just grinning like a lunatic and bouncing all over the place.

Exactly how I was. Reminded me of how excited I was at age 16 waiting for Come Original to come on Q101.

[Freeze Time]

It truly is nostalgic 311... Its just so positive. I cant stop listneing. God all the instruments sound amazing, Bob Rock might get the best out of 311.

[Vibe Merchant]

It is an upgrade from the single DTOM. I want to like it as much as some of you, but it doesn't feel good when it feels like I could have written these lyrics. I'll wait until the album to make a full judgment.

[Freeze Time]

But you didnt
