I like it though.

i fear it will be overplayed and i will grow to like it not so much.

i was reading a bit about it and PWT's actually re-released this song and it's doing much better this time around.

I saw these kids live a few years ago...kind of peeved they are getting so much rep now....oh well....paid 5 bucks to see them, they didn't even headline.

I liked the song back then, but they altered it too much :(

on a side note :

it was 2 years ago and I used to sing that song to my girlfriend on our anniversaries.

Seriously, he's too awesome. We should all stop listening to the song since he was obviously there first and we make it uncool, which would really suck for him.

yay for standard "I saw them before they were cool" comment.

He should write a book on how to be awesome. It could be called "How to be as Awesome as ViviTheMage"

haha, if that's how you feel about what I said.

I merely stated it to say that they altered it since the original I heard a few years ago.

take your crapolla elsewhere.

Just sounds melancholy and kinda depressing.

I thought I had heard this song before. No wonder. I usually don't complain about the music today, but they're getting so bad that they just re-release their same crap now?

It's not overplayed to me but then again, I never listen to the radio.

I checked out some PWT a while back when I first heard "Delilah" and the rest of their stuff doesn't sound anything like it, it sorta bummed me out. Oh well.

Nah don't take any crap about your comment.

I heard this song a couple years ago too, and when I played a copy for people they all thought it was neat, and now this time around it's burning out peoples ears with overplay.

My GF used to love it too =)

haha, it's the epitome of ATOT though....if someone doesn't like a post they throw there crap at it.


It is funny how none of there other stuff sounds like it ...when I first heard it live it was purely acoustic, granted a lot of songs change when they go to the radio.

Like MSIs 1989...it used to not have that loud bass right before they said 1989. and a few motion city soundtracks songs changed a lot when they were first created...like capitol H.

I love it, and sometimes it makes me cry...My boyfriend (a fellow ATOT'er) just went to boot camp. I won't see him for at least two months, since I'm due to head out in about two weeks.

it's about the strength of love and how they've got planes and trains and cars
but he'd walk to her if he had no other way.

i don't find that depressing. that's awesome.

Have always hated that song. #1 The melody seems ripped off from a nursery rhyme or something. #2 The lyrics are anti-prosaic and sound like stuff my barely literate friend growing up wrote to his girlfriends with small words. #3 It used cheese-ball tactics like the over-played orchestral strings near the end of the song for a sense of profundity.

Funny stuff. =p

no kidding. quoting the lyrics, although i did change it from the actual words, is an easy way to explain a song.
