Who Ever Said

[Ms Harmless]

Okay, I love this song, too.

welcome to the club

[WaitingForBluey]

I might end up becoming obsessed with this song. It's the one that requires the most repeated listens.

It's my current obsession.

[WtOB?]

this is the only one i’m still not totally on board with yet.

[Anders]

Easily better than the opening song on the last two albums. Not sure it’s better than Life Wasted.

[brisk]

Loved it since I first heard it, shame the album goes downhill afterwards!

[Ms Harmless]

the only thing I can compare the loose, live, meandering feel of this middle 8 to is "Corduroy", my favourite PJ song

[guitar_davey]

I'm a huge Avocado fan and I love Life Wasted. I think this song is way better.

[Ms Harmless]

I'm still not wild about that synth melody that pops up... once I think?

It's my first favourite wrinkle of the entire album, so it's huge for me. I like that they squeezed in a little new wave nod without the rest of the song being that. It really hits my proverbial feels for some reason.

Same. the lighter/poppier elements of the song (including the chorus) hold it back a bit for me. I love the rest

"gave up on satisfaction" makes me wince a little

Does anybody else here fucking love this part of this song as much as I do?

Anybody?

I almost feel like, if they were gonna chuck this sound in, they may as well have done a full on 60s-sounding solo with it later on; it just does its widdly thing once, then disappears again, comes then goes

[Strat]

Loving that added synth in between mccreadys blistering guitar blasts!

[scrub12]

I moved this up to 5 stars for me. I love the lyrics and I think it may be Ed’s most powerful performance on the record. It’s just fantastic.

It’s got my ventricles pumping, working overtime.

I like the matter of fact thud in this lyric:

It’s all in the delivery
Said the messenger who is now dead

yeah that's a great lyric

Maybe I’ll agree once I hear the album in full quality.

You’re sounding like someone who’s given up on satisfaction.
