I love the way that particular track comes to a climax towards it's end with Thoms vocals and all the musical elements playing together they way they do... and to be honest there's an incredibly powerful personal story behind my love of the song... I remember back in 1998 my mother was in intensive care and it was touch and go whether she would make it or we'd lose her.... and hearing Let Down for some reason opened up this flood of rushing emotions, and somehow it allowed for a cathartic release every time i heard it, and even up to this very day that song has that powerful effect on me...
