Wait... what? This is one of your nominations Snake? I'm kinda shocked, didn't peg you for someone that liked Country. I, on the other hand do not care much for Country music. I can deal with Classic Country but Pop Country or what is basically known as regular Country now (since Pop Country now has evolved into something else) just never caught on with me. I actually don't even find this chic attractive at all if it tells you much how anti-country I am lol. I settled at middle of the road on the beat and vocals here and the fans clearly like it but I had actually never heard this song before and it is definitely something I'd never be caught singing along to.

I am most certainly familiar with Incubus but I wouldn't go as far as saying that this is one of their better songs as I have heard better. It's still on ok metal track despite how short it is though. The message is the highest scoring thing for me here and everything else is kind of under par. For me this isn't really a song that you can even sing to tbh because of the constant change in tempo vocally as the lead singer Brandon Boyd switches from spoken word to singing and back. I like some of the stuff the band has done but as I am not a die hard fan, I prefer their stuff from Make Yourself much better. One interesting thing I have learned here that I didn't know before is what the band's name actually means and it's more graphic than I ever took the band for. For those of you that don't know an Incubus is a demon that goes around having sex with women who are asleep. Pretty dark tbh.

This song isn't too bad but fails in a couple ways. Lyrically for example, there is no substance since they pretty much repeat the same thing over and over and over and over. Plus I never understood songs that used spelling out something to avoid actually rhyming. It's got an ok beat but even that is on a short repetitious loop for the whole song. Interesting though that I thought I had never heard this song before but according to the wiki it is featured in the game Thrillville which I own but never really sat down to play completely. The band has had a few hiccups since it started in 2001 replacing out one or two of the band members a couple times. Eventually in 2012 though the band was at it's end as the lead singer Chantal Claret left the band to go solo.
