:nice:

And since Sirens sounds like Rocky IV, this might be a concept album about boxing. "I Vill Break You (live)" is the secret track.
How does mym fit in?
"I've got an unfortunate feeling
I've been beating down."

Isn't that enough?
no, but i like your idea. It would be way cool if PJ made a conceptual boxing album, because i boxed a little and am a life long fan of the sport. When I first heard Fatal I associated the song with a career decline that one of my fave fighters was experiencing at the time.

I just need Tom Waits to write one.

This thread is tons of fun and all, but honestly, IF and I mean IF this Sponge business is real, don't we all agree that it'll just be this album's Hey Fakhah?

I don't know. I mean, is that Brendan O'Brien's style? It might be kind of cool, just to see them having a sense of fucking humour. They do need to lighten up, without making 'lightning up' look like a spiritual lifestyle choice. Ed is really good at that. It'll waste some space on the tracklist, but hey, so did red dot.
