Haha! That was my very first thought when I heard sirens funnily enough. But I came to love sirens in all honesty.
Not hearing that here though I’m afraid

I have it on my combined playlist of recent Ed songs, which has mostly Earthling songs on it. Tender Mercies is beautiful.dimejinky99 wrote:I know I’m incapable of objectivity on this but nothing on here comes close to tender mercies for me.

Good idea.
It’s a beautiful song.
Pearl jam for ever have suffered mid tempo / dad rock disease when they go ‘there’
But they’re getting better and better at it as they go along in the true sense.

I liked Invincible from the beginning. I dig the live version and that's why I'm hunting for a better recording.

I like Tender Mercies a fair bit, and quite enjoy a few other songs on that soundtrack...but to me Earthling is such a far superior (and enjoyable!) listen to Flag Day its not even close.dimejinky99 wrote:I know I’m incapable of objectivity on this but nothing on here comes close to tender mercies for me.

Okay, I love Invincible. I love this record. And I say with great affection that that NASA thing is the most dad rock thing I can possibly imagine.
