With the news music video for Yeah Right this makes this the first album to have five music videos, even Fallen had 4. I love it and hoping the best and more in the future from EV ❤️😊

Quite honestly, I don't at all understand why Yeah Right got a video. They dropped the song from their live set after performing it once and it was hardly ever brought up when the band members would talk about their favorite moments on TBT. I would have assumed it would be BPS or Blind Belief to have gotten the video, but this is more out of left field to me than if they had released a video for Artifact/The Turn. Not at all sure what Amy is going for here and I don't find the video to be creative or entertaining enough to really make sense of it.
I think it's cool Amy wanted to put an album out during Covid, but this era was messy and got boring quickly. I think it would have been fine if they would have found a new focus to integrate with the album (an acoustic EP with a new acoustic break in their live set or something) to help create longevity, but nothing new ever came. Those of us who supported the band on their multiple tours this era paid for the same show (with increasing ticket prices might I add) over and over.
There are some cool songs from this album that I hope live on as live songs, but I'm ready to hang up the boots on TBT and welcome something new if it comes.

When it first came out, I really liked Yeah Right - it had a bit of a Muse vibe, which I enjoyed. I have found it's not a song I revisit though. I always find it an interesting choice when artists choose to put a song on a new album that they deemed not good enough to go on their previous record, but having said that I wasn't really a fan of Take Cover when TBT came out, and now it's one of my favourites. Apart from that, it's interesting that my favourite TBT songs were all tunes that were written specifically for that record. Especially Better Without You - I kind of get the impression that song was written quite quickly towards the end of the writing session, and it's one of my favourite Ev tunes ever.
