Or older people who only know Crash and Satellite, and hear the new stuff and love it. Mercy, If Only, Sweet and Gaucho appeal to an entirely different person than classic DMB does. It's my opinion, but this album sounds NOTHING like the band I fell in love with. Hence, can and will attract a new following.
Given the content of the song, I find it highly unlikely teenage girls would fall in love with Mercy. It's not a love song.

The last chorus of Belly Belly Nice is acceptable to sing, but the third verse of Grey Street is not? #OccupyGreyStreet
