I think 3/5 is a fair rating. Before anyone says I hate the song, I don't. I really like it. But I'm going by this scale:
5 - Classic song, very few reach this. 4 - Brilliant song, good on every level, just not quite at that upper tier. 3 - Good song, definitely not skip-worthy. Quality listening. 2 - Below average. Track to skip. 1 - Repulsed by the song. Don't ever want to hear it again.
All things considered, Four Letter Word is definitely a good track that I'll enjoy hearing when I listen to the album. However, it drags on at the end. That definitely prevents it from being a 3.5/5, for example. I hope that the boys have the good sense to know when to end a song, because so far they don't (Bring the Light was 90 seconds too long).

Very reasonable scale. Same kind as mine. Agree about the ending though. Makes me worry about Wigwam...that ones supposed to be like 7 minutes...hope it's worth it to the end

^ ahh, we do agree on some things.
Songs a solid B for me...3.5 on my 5 point scale.
If there's 4-5 that equal or (gasp) best it, we're pretty much guaranteed a long-term listener.

4/5 - great opener and a nice rocky feel to it!
(for the record: BTL 3/5 and SOTS 1.5/5)

I like the lyrics and the guitars on it.. is not such a great melody isn...it....... I say is a good effort,,,,, has attitude which obviously suits Liam,,, just seems poor melodywise in my opinion.. But i have to admit I wasnt expecting it.... ill give it a 4/5..... trying as hard as i can to not compare it to Oasis... which is measure up i supposed to theyre 2000's period... as what it is... an opening track..

4.5/5
It's the best I've heard from BE yet. Love the lyrics (Even the 50 amp fuse bit!) Love the Vibe of the song (Oasis Mach 2 for me) Love the Drums at the end It will be mega live.
