Too bad everyone else is still blinded by the mundaneness of NAIS. Oooh, Mike plays a bluesy solo.

Some cool textural things going on in both these songs. I voted for "You Are"

But don't you love "Pendulum" which is approximately 7 million times less interesting on every front than "NAIS"?

"NAIS" is a slow burn but at least there's movement to it, there's tension and chromaticism, there's a killer bridge which has more drama in it than the entirety of "Pendulum". It also has a ton of atmosphere, which "Pendulum" lacks as it sounds like plastic.

I realize this isn't "NAIS" vs. "Pendulum" but the whole "NAIS is just Mike playing blues licks" take is so off the mark
