it's a really good one. it's not their peak and I hope the rest of the songs will be better. but it's very catchy and after 2 listenings I could sing it on my own a bit.

I didn't like it after the first listen. Sounds very 'Radio 2' to me, but I guess that's the point? However, I don't think it's going to propel them back to 1997 either when they were flavour of the month. Hopefully the album will be better.

After a few listens I've gotten over the shock of something so completely poppy.
The opening riff reminds me of something I can't quite put my finger on . . . Def Leppard maybe?!

Listened to it twice, find it very underwhelming so far. It sounds like one of the songs they end up with when they're trying too hard to write a classic. I need to listen to it a few more times, but I certainly think a better production would have helped.

It is a radio song very catchy and it grows on you after the first listen hopefully the video will be good and it can be played on the tv a lot
