Default New song - Knockout

Just heard it through Spotify here in Australia. As basic as it is, I actually quite like it. Musically there doesn't seem to be much to it but I'm digging the way it builds up to the chorus an the chorus itself. Pretty dam catchy!

Pretty meh

Lyrics are way worse than THINFS. Not that THINFS lyrics were awesome to begin with...

But I like that musically it's similar. No ballad for a 2nd single yay

It has the potential to grow on me. So far this is shaping to be better than WAN (big surprise) and The Circle so I'm optimistic

It's the production that kills me... And could we have gone at least one album without the "live your life" lyric? Seriously?

I think this is one of the songs that you either really like or totally hate. Unfortunately, for me it's the latter...

Yes, I'd agree with that!! I was fully expecting to hate it.

So why no solo after the bridge?

I get that songs nowadays are more radio friendly with little or no guitars but it's not like THINFS was ever supposed to be a huge hit, so basically only a bunch of die hards will listen to the rest of the singles.

It would improve the song greatly. Like from 5 to 5.5 but still a great improvement over the WAN singles

Average track. Better than some of the recent stuff but not a patch on classic Bon Jovi.

I really dislike polarizing comments like this.

I don't hate it. I hate Rihanna's song Work or Drake's "Hotline Bling".

This song is just so forgettable and boring and I'll probably just not listen to it again.
