Lay Down For Free... could have been so much better. Love the lyrics.. but the arrangement is NOT "out there" or exciting in any way shape or form.

LDFF has one of the best power pop grooves on the entire album. Reminds me of the Shins song Phantom Limb.

It reminds me of “Hold Me.” At least the chorus.

LDFF is a good song played blandly. The drums I think are automated. Some organ and harmony vocals by Christine would have helped tremendously.

Nothing wrong with Temporary One….lovely little upbeat song with some meaningful lyrics. Not her best but still good.
Certainly not to be replaced by Liar. I couldn’t envisage that as a FM song.
IMHO LDFF is okay. Kinda bland but it’s okay. Was it played on tour? I think it could be tons better live.

Bleed to love her
Sweet girl
Temporary one

To my way of thinking, Temporary One is the best of the new songs. And I enjoy all four of them.

But if we’re playing a “what if” game, “Anything Is Possible” might have sounded great, too. The tune would have to be “up” in order for the set pacing to work.

Just going to totally forget about My Little Demon eh?

This Temporary One slander is blasphemy. It’s as solid of a Christine number as anything she had released in the prior 10 years. I think it fits perfect with The Dance era in so many ways!

Lay Down for Free is not bad IMO but it’s very forgettable.

That's ~dirty wh0re mouth~ to you!!!

LDFF sucks, because it's too repetitive, and I find that lick that runs through the song annoying af.

ANNNDDDDDDD, it sounds like a drum machine, not Old Dick.
