True. Look at KISS, the Stones, etc. How many "Farewell Tours" has KISS embarked on now?
Alive in the superunknown :cool:

I'm not on my own! It is very SG-esque.

Olé was something they had from BS and they release it online...it would be a wrong move to put it in the album.
Still, i think it could be nice to have it as christmas single maybe. I dont enjoy it very much though.
Do we know that Ole was from Backspacer sessions? I wonder if it came from the sessions two years ago and was almost a b-side from those sessions. The instrumentation, vocal and production sounds closer to MYM than anything from Backspacer. I can't see it on the album but I can see Of the Earth as either an album track or b-side.
While a Western guitar motif lost on the swings drum bass fusion, get your own thoughts into the subconscious often forgotten. "Pendulum" is a sweeping soul from the ballast.

No your not. I hear some SG in the intro. More so than I hear Arctic monkeys.

That's what I thought. Initial sessions for LB but deemed as fodder. Something for that sept 2011 tour. A bone, shall we say.

They were generous that month. Ole plus the Toronto release. Or was that much later?

Wast olé a part of the batch of new songs? It was just road tested for reaction maybe? A sampler if you will? Mym is way more enjoyable but Olé has its charms too. And those gaps.
Calibrate your enthusiasm
