My path:
2/immediate
2/wait two activations (after second "No, no, can't let go")
3/wait one activation (after last long phrase)
Edit: typed it wrong; thanks batsmak for pointing it out. XD

Sorry I couldn't post mine. Quite frankly I did it by accident the first time I ever fc'ed the song and no one really ever beat it till now, so I didn't really track it or write it down. My score was also no squeezing, as that was prior to my knowledge of squeezing.
Glad to see you got it and thank for sharing your paths. |

Fixed.
Only way your path would be correct is if the Measures were 4/4 in the verse (with half length activation time), but they are 11/4, I think (too lazy to check another note chart). _________________

Fuck the first activation. Fuck it to hell. Every single time I try to squeeze it the game says "Nope" and doesn't activate.
In fact, fuck this whole song. Fuck it to hell. _________________

Nah, you're taking songs like this, 29 Fingers and I think Go With the Flow all wrong - if you can't seem to squeeze the activation, figure no one else can either, and activate early, then focus on squeezing the most points possible on the phrase that OD runs out on.
I could be wrong with this philosophy, and maybe there is still some perfect time to activate, but according to the current leaderboards, I'm second only to vh on both this song and 29 fingers. |

They do have a point though. I'm trying to FC Can't Let Go right now, and it's maddeningly impossible to squeeze that activation. The window is open forever, but there's almost a half second there where it's just impossible to activate at all despite the window still being yellow. |

I keep thinking in my head that VH and bill were able to squeeze that activation and will beat my score by at least a thousand. =P _________________

Actually I partially retract what I said before.
I still think squeezing the first activation is an exercise in futility, and anything that's not activating at the very beginning of the window is about the same - getting all the points for this activation is about singing those two notes at the right rhythm in the second phrase of the second verse., and you should be able to get 1952 points out of that phrase if you're counting (I wrote down 39952 a few times while doing my league scores for this song last week, I think that's the point total after the first verse).
On the second activation, you can't just activate early, but you also can't activate too late (or it won't count). There is some range of time you have to activate in order to pick up the energy from the weird "Ah" phrase near the end of the bridge and keep OD going until the beginning of the "But now all I have is" phrase. I imagine a lot of the difference between my score and vh's is due to the fact that you squeeze across the "but now" talky at the beginning of that phrase.
The third activation is much more normal - it's a short window, and activating any time is good, but hesitating just slightly is better. The end of that activation is so easy to squeeze that I'm pretty sure any variation in it is due to activation timing. _________________
