This journal further devolves into commentary on The Bravery
I don't... it's not a BAD video, but it's not all that good either. If this is the best song on the album will I still buy it? Yes. If this is the best song on the album will it stand any chance that I love it the way I love the first one? Nooooo. "Slow Poison" did get stuck in my head randomly a few days ago even though I hadn't been listening to it recently and that might be a good sign. However, I saw them perform it on Conan the other night and I was not impressed (also, I think Sam was wearing the same striped shirt, just a note). I know from personal experience that I DO enjoy them live, so it's not that I feel they don't translate, I'm just not sure the song does. I worry that this is the single. Off to listen to preview tracks on iTunes and then back to textbooks and papers...
