"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

It sounds like the Killers if they got pissed off and wanted to KILL someone.

Good sh!t.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

It's called Dirt Room and it's pretty intense.http://www.blueoctoberfan.com/approachingnormal/main.php Click on the Myspace link to hear it.

This is actually what I wished Blue October would sound like. I really like Hate Me and Into the Ocean, but those are some mellow tunes. This new single has a lot more energy. It's like if The Killers, Snow Patrol, and The Foo Fighters mated and had a baby.

That's probably why i like it so much....it has influences from all of the stuff I like.
