This song really changed how I viewed Sum 41. Previous to hearing this song on Pandora, I only listened to two Sum 41 songs (In Too Deep & Fat Lip) and my opinion of the band was "bleh".
The song obviously has heavy blink influences, and I really respect Sum 41 for it. The only concern I have is if they wrote this song with their heart or head. Blink's songs were all written from the heart, as nearly every serious song they wrote had been inspired from experiences in at least one of the band member's life, or about something in their life. You have these kind of bands (blink, hopefully Sum), and bands that write stuff with their head, having no passion about it, other than to make money. Hopefully this new album's style sticks and Sum stays with it, 'cause I like it.
