    I liked the song, but it sounded like Dave couldn't sing it. His voice was pretty rough.

    I loved the re-introducing of "What Will Become Of Us" line he sang. I feel like the story picks up right were we left off with Before These Crowded Streets. I dunno, if thats stupid...I'll shut up.

    Maybe it sounds way better full band, but from the sound of it I hope it's the worst song on the album by far.

    From a marketing standpoint, I'm shocked that essentially no info on the album was divulged. Could very well be that decisions regarding the album have simply not been made. I'm think it's out late summer at the earliest (pure uneducated guess)

    There were parts of this song that I really liked. The first verse was so so in my mind, but the rest I really dug. The whole love is not a whisper line was really good I thought. The chorus and the last verse were certainly something I could get behind. I can really hear Boyd having a nice little role on this song. I don't want to long for what might have been, but does anyone else think that if Roi was still around he would shine on this song? To me this just seems like a song that he would add his soft, smooth, and soulful touch on.

    Now the countdown for this album begins even more. Hopefully we get some concrete information soon.

    Reminds me of a Cry Freedom. I think this is a song that needs some time to like. I like it but I don't love it, but I think I will.

    That was how I really felt as I listened to it on the show. I was not impressed at the early going of it. Given a few more listens now, I would be willing to bet it has more to often on the album. But singles are rarely the best song on album so I am trying to hold back any judgements on how this reflects upon the rest of the album.

    Just out of curiosity, do you find this a better debut than Shake Me or Funny the Way It Is?

    while i'm interested in its potential and i personally like the lyrics....it wasnt a strong statement for a new album but it was a very fitting song to play given the guest that was on and the times we are in...how is this song any worse than something like toy soldiers or heathcliff haiku whatevers...it isn't, it's actually in the same form as songs like this and the aforementioned light lift me up that people thought he was going to sing...its just disappointing in the sense that it was quiet and short and without the band

    I think its a good thing a lot of people dont initially like this.

    All I know is that its going to be a nice quiet song with Carter building up until that final chorus while Boyd, Tim, Jeff, and Rashawn are all over the song.

    Re: Progress updates - Stay on topic!

    Considering this is (almost certainly) the only definitive insight we have into the album so far, the question is pretty simple: is this an album where a song like "Mercy" blends well thanks to production and vision (ie a Cry Freedom type deal) or is this an album of separate parts, of which "Mercy" will be the token quiet song?

    If we're talking album news and not new song debut news, that's honestly the only question on the table.

    Love it!

    For those bashing the lyrics, I think they're very filling and good...definitely in the right direction. It seems like people wanna bitch just to bitch. I don't get it? If So Much To Say or Too Much were debuted, those lyrics are far worse in meaning and substance, they'd be terrorized on this board! I applaud Dave and am happy to hear his lyric writing hasn't bit the dust. If you don't like the direction this is showing, I feel sorry for you.

    Great job tonight, and I really am pleased with the simplicity of the riff, song and lyrics. I'd much rather hear this than BW material.

    Maybe... but I just can't see them sitting on a completed album for months. Lillywhite is just about done mixing already.

    Agreed! I'm really liking this song and can't wait to see what Boyd, Stefan, Tim, Rashawn and Jeff have to offer.

    I can't believe people are already bashing the song to Lillywhite on Twitter. Just unbelievable... You would think people would at least wait until they hear the album before passing judgement. Then again a lot of people think they are a better producer or song writers than Steve or the band.

    i mean if you wanted the next two step or last stop you didn't get it

    but once the word came out it was going to be a quieter "beautiful" tune i was up for anything...you have to take a song or music for what it's worth and this is beautiful and imo reminds of alot of older defunt tunes that people on these boards love

    Not sure if anyone noticed this or mentioned it (I havent back-read, so my apologies if it has been mentioned), but Lillywhite confirmed that there would be a track longer than 8 minutes on the album. That is another good piece of information we got tonight (in addition to Mercy).
