It is a good song, I don't mind hearing it live!

I used to really love this song. In fact, it used to be my favourite off of Keep The Faith. Haven't listened to it in a while, though.

It's a pretty good song. I don't listen to it that much, it's not one of my favourite tracks off the album by any stretch, but I like the sentiment, and it fits in nicely right at the end there. It's just occured to me now that it's got a bit of a Def Leppard - esque vibe to it, it's a bit similar to Rock Of Ages or Let's Get Rocked or something

Haven't played this song for ages! It got some nice Rolling Stones guitarwork, kinda like Sleep. Used to love it as a little kid, now I'm not sure, but it's not a favourite.

I think the way sleep has been overplayed over the years has made many fans appreciate this song even more.
Cause even though it's not in the same tones or have the same structure, it's inevitable that it's going to get compared with Sleep based on the beat and the feel it has.

It's not bad but I like Sleep more, a lot more.
