Yup bland as hell. But, the positive side is that the vocals sound quite good.

I think it's a bit too over the top production for me. As a song it's catchy as all hell. "got a brown eyed girl and she believes in me" is such a great line (if you wife also has brown eyes I guess haha)

I like the twangy guitar bits in the chorus but the song is pretty repetitive, it could have used a bridge that took it somewhere else before coming back. As a lead-off single I would put it ahread of Limitless and Born to Follow but behind HAND and Memory. Maybe on par with Because We Can (Which I still god damn love)

I actually like it...very catchy...Yes sounds like it should have been on the what about now album, but thats not a bad thing for me as i dont mind that album overall.

its awful. EVerything i thought it would be after the live performance. Jon sounds robotic.

Phils looking like hes having fun despite the fact he could unplug, walk off and it wouldnt make any difference. Seriously, 3 guitars on this song? Really? They must be playing a chord each.

Just hoping this is the worst song on the album. If it turns out to be the best....yikes.

I liked it.

Mix problems? Oh yes, but still better than Limitless and it's catchy.

The first single is just "safe play", it's ok. Now can't wait for Forever hahaha

I quite like the song...but the video is just horrible! Why they can't make a good video anymore?? This video remembered "what do you got" video. Just horrible.

I would prefer a studio video with band playing.

The song is also available on YT music now. I guess it's on Spotify and everywhere else too.

Terrible and so flat. Everything is lifeless, even the band in the video. It's like they would rather be anywhere else. I can handle cheap lyrics because this is Bon Jovi, but the lack of energy, Jon's false-sounding voice, and the complete lack of dynamism in the music mean it is a total dud. So lazy considering this time there is something to prove.

Hopefully Jon chose a poor first single.

The song is quite bland. The video sucks. They missed the target on this one. Better than limitless but that's not something to brag about.

It's OK. Catchy song. Disappointed there's no guitar. Typical Bon Jovi song.

Consolation: It's better than Do What you can, Becuase We Can and limitless as singles.
