Default I just heard...

Nothing, Unbreakable, and Dirty Little Secret for the first time...and I wonder why songs like Wildflower, Last Cigarette, and Bells of Freedom made HAND and these amazing songs didn't...

All comes down to opinion. Personally I'd take BoF over Unbreakable any day. From what I recall, Jon just didn't care for those songs.

I've never gotten the appeal of Unbreakable. I'm with Jon on that one. I really like Nothing but it's too close to I Am and DLS just doesn't fit the record. One Last Cigarette is my favorite so I'm glad Jon bumped Unbreakable for it, lol!

Unbreakable definitely should have been on the album. I've let a couple of my friends who are casual fans listen to it and they say it would be their favorite on the album. Just b/c the die-hards don't like it doesn't mean it wouldn't have gone over well. The other two bonus tracks aren't very good.

I just don't like all the synth sound. But, I will say I agree with you on the point of a die hard liking a song doesn't make it a hit and vice versa.

That's sort of it. I don't like the song but I think it would have gone over well with people. It's very very poppy, lots of rhyming, stand your ground, yadda yadda. From a pop fan's perspective, it's gold. From an artistic point of view, it's fluff. I go back and forth on loving it and not liking it.

I'd take Unbreakable before WIldflower and Last Cigarette anyday...those two songs are the weak spot of HAND for me...Nothing is good, but not as good as I Am, and Dirty Little Secret is ok too...beats Last Cigarette

DLS could have been better the lyrics were better than the tune
