This is actually a really cool song. I just wish there was more SA and it was longer.....this could have been a #1 if it had...that little bit more. but for what it is....a great mini epic rockin closer. (well, emo rockin, haha) but its good....always brings a lil tear

When UP came out Nick mentioned a few times he wanted to make a concept album about space. Do you reckon this song was from that?

Yeah but it's a nice ending.. I like it.. I really think that if they had of omitted songs this album wouldnt be as good... It's great because its long and diverse.

As others have said it does end rather abruptly - if the jam at the end extended a bit longer it really would be an OK ride. Not one of my favs on the album but it still has its merits...

ska wrote:Absolutely love this track. Top 3 on the album. Auto tune effects on the one verse don't bother me at all. The beauty of this song is its simplicity. Content wise it's pure 311 and it pulls on my heart strings.
I really dig it. The AHHHH-HOOOOOO's remind me of another song, but I can't finger it out. Anyone?

Just listened to that one again (I am sad that I ever liked that song) and I didn't hear anything that reminded me of this song....

I love it. I too expected more twists and turns, but as an aging human - and I know it doesnt REALLY mean anything... it makes me less afraid of dying.. and what can you possibly ask more of a song?

oddly enough, i'm starting to fall in love with this song. at first i absolutely hated the auto-tune but now i'm seeing it as more artistic in a sense that it reminds me of GLaDOS from Portal. gives me a Bowie vibe.

The beginning reminds me a lot of that song in Pineapple Express MIA-Paper Planes.

Seriously, cool track, never thought I'd hear this outta 311
