Reviews:

Happiness Is: The Complete Recordings will include all three studio b-sides and three additional acoustic renditions of album tracks, such as 'Like You Do,' from the record that portray those particular songs in a different light.

There was something real sentimental and warm feeling about the acoustic demo version of Like You Do, says vocalist Adam Lazzara. Ed (Reyes) and I were staying in the saddest hotel in all of Long Island while the band was writing what would later become most of Happiness Is. This place was as close to one of those 1970s New York City hotels as I had seen in the movies and on the news growing up as you could get, the only exception being that it was on Long Island. Motel style, with ladies of the night, yelling at all hours, the works. It was the worst. I was missing home something awful, it was the worst it had been. That s where Like You Do happened. In that smoky room, at that seedy hotel. I played it back on my voice recorder and it took me someplace else. I think we came pretty close to that feeling with this recording. At first we even talked about just leaving it as an acoustic song. Now we have both.
