Song of the Moment: Sirens

[McParadigm]

Finished puzzles?

Do they....sell those?

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

I love Sirens, and actually I don't want to listen to a demo of it because it's almost guaranteed to make me wish it was that rather than this. I want to just have this and be OK with it; I'm happy enough that PJ gave me something I like this time, I'm not going to voluntarily spoil it.

if it becomes available though, then why not have both? if its different enough then you have 2 songs kinda like puzzles and games and light years

When they are drastically different I really would only want to hear it if its a clear and fully realized version and performance. (Speed of Sound Demo/Studio)
I hate puzzles and games because I would like it more than Light Years but what we have is not all that "listenable" .

Yeah, I'd rather have a finished Light Years than an unfinished Puzzles and Games, any day of the week.

Im not sure if Im the only one, but i like light years better anyway, but i do like knowing where else they though of going with it

Alternate versions and demos enrich the experience for me. Sure production choices and take choices may seem bizarre but usually you can see why those decisions were made.

And I prefer the studio SoS and the finished Light Years.

From a creative standpoint, whether I like the end product better or worse, I enjoy seeing how a piece starts out and how it finishes. The path is what interests me when I get to hear both demo and finished track

From the Pit:

"I've heard this song 30 times and watched the video numerous times. What I'm reading on multiple sites is: "I always loved you, held you high above too." But I don't hear that or see it. I hear: "I always loved you, of you I am all true". Anyone hear something different."

I found this, um....

Not the only Doc, I too prefer LY to Puzzles.

I do too. I mean, I can't even remember what Puzzles sounds like.

[jdopj]

It sounds like a clunkier version of LY with different lyrics.

[stip]

It sounds like it would be the best song to come out of those sessions if we had a good finished version. It's Betterman meets given to fly plus that cool guitar part from ly

[Jorge]

It sounds like

[stip]

It sounds like

It sounds like your face

[Jorge]

I'm not kidding, it really does sound like that song

[stip]

It wasn't loading on the iPad. I have no idea what song that is

it's "high above two"

[E.H. Ruddock]

Aside from GSMF I like this better than anything on Backspacer.

[harmless]

It sounds like

Actually I do remember thinking this.

[McParadigm]

This came on the random play list this morning, and my wife pointed out that it takes no effort at all to imagine Elton John's voice singing exactly this song, without any other necessary changes.

Now I can't not hear it.

[harmless]

There probably isn't a PJ song that isn't true for.

[McParadigm]

Yawn.

This song could be an Elton John song with minimal to no adjustment. I wonder how many RMers would be clamoring to rush into OB and boldly sing its praises, if it was Elton's song instead of Ed's?
