TD is definitely my favorite from SYW! Anyone know of another remix besides the one from SLN?

Default Thrown Down

I just heard Thrown Down in Wendy's. I was getting some stuff for my kids and insisted that my hubby wait to leave until the song was over. He was so embarrassed...of my singing. It is one the radio quite often, along with SYW and Peacekeeper in the Philly area.
I LOVE it.

I like that song too. I dig the whole sound of it. Although, I liked Mark Needhams original mix of it, the way you hear it on the Destiny Rules DVD.

I love "Thrown Down," too. At first, I only liked the WOS version, but the album version soon grew on me, too. I like the lyrics in that version that aren't in the other one. I love "Faith is a hard thing to hold on to/Something inside you says I don't have to/You're not like other people--you do what you want to." I don't know why I love that part so much but I think it's great!

Thrown Down's lyrics cannot be beat. She really could have rocked out this song. It would have been 100 times better if she put more effort into it.

TD is constantly on my playlist, definitely one of my faves from SYW but also just a favorite song period. i like the album version sooo much more than the WOS version, the WOS is a little... whatever, i don't prefer it. the lyrics are fab, the building intro is fab, i just looove it. and my favorite part, well one of my favorite parts, is "... there is nothing left to say... (sharp intake of breath) " if that makes any sense.

Both versions are excellent... the WOS just needs that second verse and it would be complete

"Maybe now he could prove to her that he could be good for her and they should be together" is so beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. And I think we can all relate to these lyrics.

Yes, those lyrics and these: "can you write this for me he said no you write your songs yourself"

I like to think of it as metaphorical.

I loved this song so much from the beginning that I wrote a video vinnette/screenplay for it one hot summer night... took about 3 hours. If I ever make my own home video...

Great Song!!!
