Wow, that was really cool! I think another poll needs to be done after Handwritten comes out.

i agree with that statement. but at least a few months after. Gotta get past that honeymoon phase.

Agreed!

I think it would be quite different if we would have done it recently, but agreed. Maybe around the holiday season?

I donno, its just kinda boring. Its killer live though. Odd that three of my least favorite Gaslight songs (American Slang, Angry Johnny, and Cowgirls) are all awesome live.

Yes. As great as this album is going to be, it'll be overrated until everyone settles down. Fans don't factor in replay value too much when they're caught in the moment.

One of my favorites, and also the first riff I've ever learned on guitar.

Cowgirls is the absolute linchpin of The '59 Sound for me honestly. Gives some contrast to the driving rock on most the album without losing the feel and cohesiveness. I have no idea how one could not like that song.

One of my favorites, especially to play on guitar let alone listen to. Best riff Alex R. has come up with yet.

I skip it more than most but don't necessarilly dislike it.

Verdict: Love the lyrics, good vocal but I think the music lets it down a bit.

And by music I mean instruments. Sorry for using such a general term.

Cowgirls is one of my very favorite Gaslight songs. I never understood why people had low opinions of it either. I love everything about it, especially the lines:

But all I want is you to be alright and satisfied
Brothers and sisters know anytime or late at night
If you call I will answer, I'm open ears though tired eyes
But the world closed it's arms on us now

I can really relate to those lyrics.

yeah, love these lyrics
