I agree here. It seems like a filler, and could have used a few more 
instruments. I got my copy of the album last Thursday, and I've tried 
listning to this track a stack of times, and my opinion hasn't 
changed about it

Agreed. Even though, I've listened o the album a lot of times, if you 
play me track, I probably would be able to tell which ones it is 
(unless its bass n drums or those that do stand out). I thought he 
wanted to make it really rocky just to make P&P jealous.

doing at least a guest appearence with him

And some NZC. Does anyone know what song these lines come from. I've 
been racking my brain for 8 years now (really)
"Ooh, I've been going around in circles, tryin' to conjure up the 
past. And I look at happy couples" 
That's all I can remember.
