Is there anyone out there that doesn't think this song is 100 percent BAD ASS.

I concur! Great tune. Very Underrated. Goes right along Santa Ana Winds and Runway Lights.

Total genius. My favorite Dave vocal performance. The range and power is just astounding.

DAMN, it almost makes me mad. This band should have been bigger than they were....i mean, this is the type of performances that 100,000 should flock to a Wembly....flat out ROCKS....

Their first album was one of their best. I liked the first album through Vital Signs the most. The last couple eeh.

Hey I don't think Reach was a disaster but it certainly lacked passion. WSC is the disaster for me because to me this is where the band went off course.

Depending on my mood either Survivor, EOTY, or VS are my favorite albums (and I can still call them that as I have the albums). Sometimes Premontion is up there too. CITG trails these.

I love Nothing Can Shake Me and Freelance, their two of my favorites off of the first album.

As far as how well I like the albums.....

#1A Too Hot To Sleep
#1B Caught In The Game
#3 Eye Of The Tiger
#4 Vital Signs
#5 Survivor
#6 When Seconds Count
#7 Premonition
#8 Reach

If Premonition had at least 2 more songs on it, then I probably would have to rate it higher, probably ahead of WSC. But 8 songs just wasn't enough.

I think both are pretty good efforts to be honest. A different feel for sure, but still good melodic stuff.

I must admit, Im similar to you here. Ofcourse, but I'll move replace Premonition for first the first album because it cemented my obsession with Survivor. CITG and THTS I would give similar ratings. To be brutally honest, I feel EOTT, Premonition and VS are the STRONGEST rock albums comparable to anything great that has been ever released by any of the who's who in rock.

3. Premonition
