they've been trying to revamp all of our 80s youth for some time now and this has been a live ordeal for a year or so.
i've heard the new version is cleaner tho i want to have as much to do with these humble young men as i do with role models like barry bonds. uggo

I liked the cover.

Stump sounds good live. Unfortunately he's got those other guys in the band too.

How to piss on a perfectly good song. John Mayer is a cool cat, but other than that it totally sucks.

I've heard this weeks ago, it really sucks.

Can't match Raintime's cover of it

Stump just doesn't have the range to pull this off.

'they'd be closer if they sounded like alter bridge"

Cheers haha, made me nigh choke on my sandwich. If only Mr. Henson was still walking around you could join his gang.

Ontopic; this could definately be worse, not that I enjoyed it, but it's acceptable. See a lot of thoughtless band-bashing.

Alter Bridge is actually a really good band, at least for Radio Rock.

John Mayer played guitar for Beat it, not Stump.
