You could get one of us to call you and play it over the phone, or leave you a voice mail with the clip so you can listen to it over and over again!

the reverse reverb in that part is interesting and that part of the song is conceptually much more challenging, adventurous, and artistic than this 30 second clip. there is no way billy thought he was going to be 'getting the kids on board' with that part of the song, he just wanted to do it: it was in his heart.

Exactly. "a little sunshine just to butter my toast" wins the cheesy lyrics prize.
No wait, that was zwan.

HOW COULD THIS BE ANY WORSE ? NOW HE CAN'T EVEN WRITE SHIT... WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS ? BRITNEY SPEARS CAN WRITE BETTER LYRICS THAN THAT!

"i wanna be down" makes more sense, and is cooler.

u should listen to whole song, whole lyrics to judge Britney is better.

It's only 30s anyway, of the song that will be the first single, which does not mean much about the other songs. Not enough to judge good or bad, IMO.

Im not kidding myself, I already said they have done it before, but this, no this isn't right. This is beyond the pop they have done before, that riff and lyrics combined sound diabolical. Your kidding yourself if you don't think that.

But I want this album to prove me wrong. My comments are my first reactions and i am still listening to it shaking my head for the 50th time. This is not TSP I know on any level in that 30 seconds. This sounds like pure tailoring. Maybe it's just the fact that I passionately hate alot of modern pop/punk/hardcore whatever you want to label it and im hearing hints (atleast) of it here.

how do you know that this 30 seconds clip isn't part of a much more challenging, adventurous and artistic cencept? Seriously, it's just a fucking 30 seconds clip and I have never ever heard a great 30 seconds clip in my life. just be patient.

Baby Let's Rock < 30 Seconds of Tarantula

Ugh. Baby Let's Rock. You want cheese? You want crappy lyrics or bad guitar? What's wrong with some of you. at least pull a good pumpkins song out to combat against this one.

I'd advise listening to it when the entire song is released.

People seem to be freaking out over 30 seconds of emo lyrics.

Are you guys who think it's a generic punk beat idiots? Can you not hear the drumming in the first half of the clip? Even the drumming for the "chunky" part isn't particularly punk.
