The most ill-conceived, unoriginal, anachronistic thing the band has ever put in one of their songs.

As I said before, it sounds like it was transplanted from some cheesy 80's radio song.

Lyrically and musically, a diversion that does not support or enhance the rest of the song. The usage of "baby, baby, baby" on Ultraviolet has a desperate, plaintive quality, while here it's greeting card pap.

A shame in that I really like the verses and don't find the chorus too offensive.

But clearly, the most noticeable and malignant wart on this great album. I really feel sorry for someone who thinks this is somehow creative or satisfying.

I am not a fan of the song as a whole, but YOU are clearly overreacting here.

And stop telling peope you feel sorry for them if they happen to like it. That's just rude.

My least favourite song, but that's the one part that is working.

I really like this song, as well as this "Baby, baby, baby" part. I'm getting kind of tired of music snobs telling me what I should and shouldn't like. I would feel sorry for these people who suck the enjoyment out of what should be enjoyable.

From the vocal take to the actual concept it's a bad, bad idea.
You wonder how shit like this could pass the smell test.

Otherwise, I am surprised by the song and I kind of dig it, surely nothing great but this bridge is just horrid.
