yeah. i'm kinda getting sick of it. probably because, when i first started listening to them, it was the first song i heard, and now, it's kinda.. old.

i like it. but it's just old.

i dunno why so many people dislike this song...i mean i guess i can understand the "it's the first one i heard" reason....but i think it's the perfect song to see the evolution of Eisley's sound...i mean, just take the very very old version...the EP version..and the Room Noises version to see it for yourself..it's pretty cool i think

I agree with that. I don't think I'd ever get sick of it. But then again, its not like I listen to them 24/7. If I did, then it may be possible to get sick of it. But its a good song.

It's my least favorite song on Room Noises, but it's not my least favorite song ever.

for me its like when weezer fans get all snobby about pinkerton being the best and how the rest suck...thats not really true...the others are not the worst ever and they are still good...even if its not your fave...

telescope eyes was the first eisley song I heard in full..and I'll always love it and it will always be great even if I have moved on to liking other songs....

just my 2 cents

I dont dislike the song. Its just old. The first time I heard it was more than 5 years ago. Lets jsut let it rest a while and perhaps revive it in a few years.

Yeh know. I started loving it again after seeing them. It's a very very good song. Sometimes I listen to the older versions just to stop it getting slightly over-played.

'Telescope Eyes' was the first song I heard too. It's a good song, not saying it isn't. But I think that happpens with a lot of music; how you put a song on repeat or whatever and you can't stop listening to it until your ears realize, "What am I listening to?" and you just get sick of it and the song loses its magic, you know? I mean, music is good, no doubt about that but, I guess we shouldn't over-indulge ourselves with one song and play it all the time because then it just becomes routine, and I think the main idea of music is to treat one with something out of the ordinary.

I'm a big Eisley fan and, even then, there's times when I stop listening to them and move to other music for a while - days at a time (I think I've gone like 2 weeks before too). But it's awesome because when I go back and listen to the EPs and Room Noises, I realize that I still have the same love for their music as I initially did, and it continues to grow. It's trully 'marvelous'.

Also my two cents on it.

It's ok.

I mean, it's ok to like it... and to be over it.
Radiohead was over Creep the same year
it came out.

Eisley was over T.E.'s before it was re-introduced
on the full length. The John Goodmanson version
on the ep was # 24 most played on the Dallas rock
station and had a 98% approval rating; the new
version got virtually no radio play. Dallas was over it
and WB didn't push it. I'm sorta glad.

btw. They recorded the song first on their first
indie ep... way back in 2001 or 02. I can't remember
it's so long ago. Do you think the band is over it?
ha ha.... But that's normal i think. Not dissin' the tune.

And there you have it... more inside moments you never
asked for.
