TTW is a good song, the problem is that it sounded too much like the old pumpkins but that comparison didn't do it any favours cause it is not as good as the old pumpkins catalogue, in terms of quality. It is too in the middle of the road, and not very catchy to be a single, specially in 2007 when everybody was paying attention to those numetal bands. That's why Tarantula did a better job:
