Opinions on "If You Don't Love Me"?

You said it was the “proto” of it.

The proto version of a catchy pop rock single to lead in the album. Before he replaced it with a superior catchy pop rock single.

What do you mean “lead in”?

What do you mean “lead in”?

The first single before the album came out... Or just the first single.

Oh, gotcha. Well then, agreed.

I re-listened to it because of this thread... Well... the bridge lyrics are so creepy...

Ok i got the Botrell thing wrong but it sort of feels like a test song, not really making any sense , again why it was unreleased. Though to say they were creepy is a bit odd.

I'm surprised it's never been officially released. It's nice to hear a fun, less serious song from Mike during this era of his career.

I love the harmonies and the feeling to it, puts a smile on my face every listen

If they replay it with modern instruments and embrace the rocker vibe then it'll be great.
