There are two Who songs I like: Baba O'Riley and My Generation. I like PJ doing the Who though.
Does this mean there are at least two Robbie Williams songs you like?
Hmmm... I guess not. Maybe I do like The Who more?

A new poll with Sirens on it and it's in the lead, surprising. Also surprising, to me, is that I'm the only vote for MYM.

I... I... don't know what that means.
I was looking for "Livin' Hell!!"

you are not yourself, Less, you should find your least favorite glass/mug/plate, throw it against a wall, count all the pieces, divide that by 6, and then drink that many shots.

I have liked The Who since I was a child because they have songs with stories and humor, and I used to like Robbie Williams. Only the last time I saw him was horrible, unfortunately. I still have good memories, but I am no longer a fan.

woohoo, I made it to the last page :). Now I have to hurry and get some sleep before my alarm clock sounds again. On topic: I love the video, especially the light. Hair on arms. Everything about it. Facial expressions. And the sound, of course.

These songs are so good, nobody cares about the bad "set the needle spinning" line in Swallowed Whole?

I still like my own Sirens listening party review :haha:
4. Sirens
Starts with ‘hear the sirens’ a couple of times, the second time ending higher than the first. Later the word ‘circles’ is used, or maybe ‘circus’. Then there is an absolutely beautiful ‘ah’.
‘more and more in this here town’, ‘let me get my breath’, ‘just to know we’re safe’ ’I’m a grateful man’, ‘take your hand’, ‘nothing lasts forever’ are some lyrics I heard
The singing gets higher, which I really like, and there is a nice and quiet part in between.
‘every choice/mistake I made is not my plan to see you in the arms of another man’
And then right when I thought it was getting a bit cheesy, it turns out to be a beautiful song. ‘want you to know .. always loved you’ Higher singing and very fine guitars. There is a short part that reminds me of TV commercials or something, but it all ends well. Multiple voices.
