Yeah, this song was on my iPhone this morning. Pretty strange song for them, and honestly it's not very good. It would be a lot better if they cut out the first part with the bong and them laughing. The music is good and I liked the solo, but the lyrics are pretty silly.

I mean on the one hand I guess it was a tad refreshing because Disturbed never does any "positive" songs, but at the same time, I think they should leave the weed songs to 311.

Apparently, when they write most of their songs, they do it while being high on weed. So in a way, it's understandable that they would write a song about it. I agree that while the music and solo is good, the lyrics aren't.

I've listened to it about 5-6 times now and honestly, the song is growing on me. I actually now like the chorus and even the second verse isn't as bad. It's that first part and the first verse that I kind of cringe at.

I find it kind of hokey..but I keep expecting them to release Believe II..that album is a classic. It's one of those few albums where almost every song is good.

I hear that a lot but honestly Believe is one of my least favorite albums. I like several songs (Prayer, Bound, Remember, Intoxication) but the rest I find myself skipping over.

For me Indestructible is their best album start to finish.

Could it possibly more hokey than their live act? I've seen them 3 times, I think, at various festivals and multi-band shows, and DD always did the same stupid bit to open the show. Really campy shtick.

He does seem to take himself a bit too seriously.

I've seen them 3 times as well.

First time was in 2006 and that was their best opening; they had a giant white curtain up and this rotating spotlight behind it and after a while when it came around their shadows were seen, the light went out then it dropped and they went into Guarded.

In 2008 they wheeled him out like Hannibal Lecter and started with Perfect Insanity. It was...hokey.

And then in 2010 they started with Asylum and played the video on a huge jumbotron, and the part where he breaks out of the ambulance he timed it to where he ran on stage like he just busted out. That was funny because I could see him off stage the entire time stretching.

Well, at least he has changed it up some, but still has the Hannibal Lecter bit in the rotation. That was the one I saw all the time, but that was back before they had more than 2 albums.
