I heard it was one of the employees at the studio or something.

    Dave’s uncle does. But I think he was on his dad’s side. He spoke on the VH1 Driven documentary

    I think this song gets a lot of hate because we've heard it nonstop for almost 3 years now, but it really is an upper echelon DMB song. The reaction so many non Dmb fans have to this song is overwhelmingly positive. The music is great, the lyrics are even better. It's a fantastic song through and through...and I think that gets forgotten here. Read the first few pages of this thread and this comes through.

    I agree, It's a very good song but I'm over it live. I don't get upset when it gets played but it's a 0 for me now because of overplay.

    Overplay will take down the affection for any song.

    That and we've been all listening to Dave for so long it's really hard to be blown away by new music since all the elements have sunk in now of their music.

    That being said, the fact he was still able to wow a lot of us and get such a positive response to the song this many years in the game is impressive and shows how good it is. It's really original too, simple yet something only Dave could write.

    This is such a great song. Studio and live versions. Now that the album has been out for nearly a year... I think making it the lead single was the right choice.

    Hadn’t listened to it in a long while but it hit on random the other day while I was driving. Really is a very good song.

    This song is great on the album. It was good in 2016 and with D & T. It sucks currently. Dave needs to drop the out of tune electric on it and his out of tune wailing that can't hit the notes. He sounds so good when he plays it acoustic.

    My Dad hates DMB, and whenever I’m driving with him thinks he’s being subjected to bad music no matter which show/tour I play, so I don’t listen to DMB with him present. But he heard Samurai Cop over satellite radio and liked it enough to get it on his iPhone. So Samurai Cop does things right musically that those that think they hate SC(OJB) are just not noticing. And it goes further than that, my brothers who can either take or leave DMB’s music took notice they like Samurai Cop the first time they heard the song which happened to be at the Gorge ‘16.

    It is great material. I personally love it with D&T the most, but it's pretty excellent in all forms.

    I didn't like Tim's solo on the studio cut at first, but with more listens I think it's pretty great. That version is great.

    i think the parts with jeff and rashawn and dave kinda wailing all sound globbered and to "just noise" and thats why it sucks in that part and its too loud-- everything

    After being played by Dave with the acoustic guitar in Europe, it is now back to the electric in Pensacola. I liked the acoustic for a change but the electric undoubtedly has a big punch to it.

    This song is so good on the album. I keep going back to it. Live...it leaves something to be desired. On the album though, one of the best songs they've transitioned from live to recording.

    It's painful at this point to try to sit through songs like Samurai Cop and Come Tomorrow. Just really monotonous with cheesy, trite lyrics.
