I can't sleep, so I thought I'd start a topic, hopefully it hasn't already been covered too much....Now that the album is out and we have a few b-sides; what is the most overrated new song and why? This doesn't have to mean the song is bad, it just means that it's not quite living up to the hype.
For me it would have to easily be "Mercy." I do like this song but I don't see this as some sort of second coming or anything like that. Don't get me wrong, it *could* be a great song if it were worked on a bit more. To me, it sounds uninspired in places and most importantly is missing a huge climax. If it had that, it would be up there with "Bad" IMO. Without it, it makes a good b-side at best. Good job Larry for giving coming up with the idea to give this song the axe, because "Mercy" wasn't finished to the point where it would give justice to itself being on HTDAAB.
