SMASH for me! Loved the vid and the tune really got after it half way through! Fun song and fun video!

SMASH--Went into this with zero expectations (think "Sin-Atra") and am very surprised. Very good, now I'm thinking I want this album. And what's with Mike Portnoy's green beard? Bent Brother...too funny!

I can't believe I'm saying this...Smash! I absolutely thought I would hate it, and it didn't start out to well. But when he got his rock on, I liked it.

Smash! -- This had all the warning signs of epic disaster, yet it worked! I was impressed with the control & sound of Snider's voice in the begining. His voice isn't bad, he probably could pull off a decent album of classics, but I was pleasantly surprised when they kicked it up & went into the classic TS Snider! Face it, he's never going to be considered a great vocalist, but there's no doubt about the power & presence he has behind the mic! While none of us will ever list TS as one of our favorite bands, we all love their anthems! The video was fun, seeing the expressions of the TS fans & the old couple & then seeing their reactions change midway through. Priceless! Love, he included a TS reference too btw. Hats off to Snider!

Looks like Mike Portnoy is everywhere at the moment!

Now this is a tough one, because the song itself is of course a SMASH, but it has been recorded over and over again thousands of times, and the video IS kind of funny, and it's good produced, but I think I'll go with STASH, because it's nothing, that I'm gonna buy or even download for free, because this one time, I've heard this version is more than enough.
