You might not want to get your hopes up about those.

why does everyone love pretender so much?
it boggles my mind...that is the single worst Eisley song ever written...and the band would probably agree

I AGREE.

I also do not like Becoming You or Head Against the Sky... and sometimes, They All Surrounded Me annoys me, too.

I dont think its the worst. I think Becoming You is. Pretender grew on me. I think lots of people like it because it's our only chance to hear Chauntelle sing (well, besides her harmony in Just Like We Do, but it's so produced you cant really hear her.).

I think "Pretender" is a good song (although I prefer the version I got from LimeWire to the one on OGG.com). It's really catchy and has decent lyrics--what's wrong with it?

It's just like (I think) the version on OGG.com without the "I'm really tired of all your lip" verses and the end. I like the words of those parts, but they're not very good musically.

Now I feel bad because you might have thought I had some really different awesome version, and I don't. Sad

this is all i figured out:

heavy distortion
e-----------
b-----------
g--6--------
d--6--7---6
a--4--7---6
e-----5----4
repeated thru out the chorus and ending

this is the chorus part figure out the strumming its pretty easy
i'll try to figure out the rest later. (version from ogg)

oh its the cut version that was posted to satiate fans, stayed up on straylight6.org for a while till I grabbed the full version from someone...don't remember who...

that's cool, i thought you found some live version, or that college radio recording session that was deemed "unusable"

which reminds me i've been lagging in my research...stupid life...
