	agreed tonkpils: opposite of december is a much stronger cd than tear from the red. i share your dissapointment.

No Picture sean Average	#4 by sean martineau at Feb 21, 1980 at 10:04 PM EST
	i love this song. i had my friend burn me all od TFTR 3 months ago and before he gave it to me i hadnt heard anything off it but when i put it in and heard the single chord strung with the lyrics "but i adore her" then breaking out screaming with a heavy guitar riff i just wanted to break out crying. its such a perfect way to open the cd and this is one of my all-time favorite songs ever.

	After watching a long full length DVD about Poison the Well, I will say they have an awsome sound in this song.

No Picture Jimmy Wanna Be	#10 by Jimmy Heywood at Oct 20, 2001 at 9:53 PM EST
	Poison The Well is one of the best bands I know , and Botchla is the best song on tear from the red ! Great lyrics , great emotional breakdown parts....! I love it !

No Picture meh Rhythm Player	#11 by meh at Mar 5, 2004 at 9:56 PM EST
	This is easily the best song from 'Red'. The song has possibly the best intro ever... and means a alot to me... the change from acoustic to all out hardcore makes me want to punch a wall or just jump about and let it all out every time I hear it. Amazing breakdown. Amazing song, amazing band.

No Picture Nick Wanna Be	#12 by Nick Lugo at Jul 31, 2005 at 4:46 PM EST
	I agree they have grown since Opposite but I think they were more RAW and Harsher and Jeffs words were more soothingly un-intertwined that it made everything fit. Dont get me wrong they are still even MORE kick ass i just personally LOVE songs off of Opposite over Red

No Picture Marc Average	#13 by Marc Costello at Oct 12, 2005 at 8:07 PM EST
	TEAR FROM the RED is one of my best cd,This song is so emotionly envolved it touches me down deep, they have definlty grown scince Oppisite of December.

No Picture Joseph Average	#14 by Joseph Ross at Feb 9, 2006 at 2:36 PM EST
	according to wickedland.com (i think, don't quote me on that) they're currently shooting a video for this song; i thought they weren't going to do that sort of thing...anyways the song is amazing! it wasn't until i sat down at my piano and starting decoding the chords that i realised how intricate and beautiful the song is.
