Wow, getting a lot done
(Don't worry, I do that sometimes too
)
I heard all the crap it was getting on here, so I re-listened to it about 6 months ago, I didn't understand what all the fuss was about, very enjoyable song IMO

Around the 20 second mark, don't like the guitar riff with the 'tinkling' in the background.
First verse is interesting, chorus is good, has good yrics "you speak of signs and wonders, but I need something other...', except for the 'cool down mama' part
The riff is still cheesy
Second verse is pretty embarassing, 'with a mouthful of teeth you ate all your friends'
Bridge has a good message "whether you live, should not decide whether you live or whether you die' but it's rather unsubtle.
Solo is boring, and I don't like the outro either
I'm afraid that a great song it ain't, 6 or 7 out of 10. Not terrible though, unlike EPAA or something

Enjoying it?Or do you hate it?

Well, you don't seem to hate it as much, therefore I feel like I've succeeded
I hate the Cool Down Mama part

Well, it's much easier than what I normally do at uni, so I don't mind it.
Marketing though is just a heap of complicated terms for common sense ideas.

Yeah, the 'cool down mama' part reminds me of the 'sexy boots' line in GOYB.
If they left them out, the song would be much better.
GOYB is awesome though

Why don't they just keep it in the common sense terms then??I've never understood it

Because it makes it seem more complicated than it actually is if they use jargon. And hence marketers seem smarter, because they use fancy words (eg dissonance reducing buying behaviour) to describe things instead of everyday ones.
I normally do engineering. I do a combined Engineering/Business degree

Engineering huh?That's what my dad does
All these pricks just try to appear smarter so that we trust them with our cash!

Yeah, but then again you guys entrusted Dubya with the country (for 8 yrs too) and he didn't ever try and appear smarter than he actually was!
What kind of engineer is your dad? electrical? civil?

You do know that Gore probably won the 2000 election, right?
He's a nuclear engineer
Wow, that's something.
