    I doubt he's in the "minority", a lot of people don't like it. Personally I think it's a good song with a fantastic jam that really steals the spotlight of the overall song. Would gladly take it at any show.

    And what if Dave finally admitted to himself how good JTR and SUAD actually are and decided to put those on the album, as well? We can dream.

    On an unrelated note, this came right after Crash. I remember reading here some time ago that Crash is a painful song to play on the guitar, and Dave really looks like he's struggling with the pain in his left hand/forearm at the beginning of this video.

    Crash sucks to play, can rest for a second in the chorus but not long enough

    Break Free is definitely good, and I'm glad to see it back. Especially in the direction they've decided to take it. They took an older tune and actually improved it, really just by adding Boyd into the mix. With that said, I can see how someone doesn't care foe the song based on the lyrics. I know not everything needs to be The Stone, but the lyrics are not that great.

    If they brought back Kill the King I would be more than happy with that. That is such an underrated tune, and I have no idea what some people dislike about it. If Boyd keeps playing the way he has then it could be even more of a monster than it was the one time they played it in 2011.

    I'm glad to see this song is back! It has a great feel to it, and the outro jam has always been one of my favorites and they made it better.

    I made a whole thread about him using the piano more and people thought I was crazy. I think he is doing it to give his hand a break.

    Break Free >>>> Kill the King. It was great to hear KTK in AC in 2011 but there really is nothing special about the song lol. It was really cool to hear and I liked it, but again nothing special. The music in Break Free absolutely destroys Kill the King IMO.

    Thanks for the video Chad! That outro was fantastic. Rashawn sounded great and I love Boyd's mini solo at the end, keep this around all summer!

    This song never really stuck out to me as being particularly good or particularly bad, and I haven't even heard it in years. This was a really nice performance though, definitely would not mind getting this one at 1 or 2 of my shows this summer.

    Love this song coming back, randomly it is the song that really started my love for DMB. I actually enjoy the faster '11 versions more of the core song, but I do like the extended jam at the end from the older versions.

    I'm so glad this is back. This is one of my favorite songs!! I'm so sad I missed it in my hometown.

    On another note: I'm out of town and don't have great signal, Could someone post an audio link? I can't get the video to load. I'll be forever greatful!

    The top 3 things in my sidebar are: Desegregation of MS school, PetSmart groomer arrested for animal cruelty, DMB plays Break Free
