I think the studio version is better, personally. I was glad to like the video though, and I'm also glad Boom was on it and everyone looked as if they were utterly content. First thing for a while that hasn't seemed really awkward.

They all look fully committed to it. Stone sounds fantastic and i love that he found a place for the use of his tremolo he has been riding for the past couple years. They all seem to share a look on their face of pure joy and proud being of this song.

Sirens is a song that I know is objectively a weirdly-constructed mess, yet I adore the lyrics and most of its components so much that it is a favorite. Still, some absolutely baffling decisions were made with this one.

I cried the first time I heard Sirens; I've been a staunch defender of it since - if there's nothing else to take from LB, it's this

I really like Sirens. It's a song I don't want multiple versions of, but it fills a gap in an extensive catalog, and is a lovely performance from Ed

Yes I do not like this cover at all, but to be fair, I'm only judging from less than 10 seconds because that's all I could take.

I thought it was OK, should've been a little faster
