Someone compared it to PF's Mother. I'll bet Sirens is closer to it than Black. Although, comparing anything to such a great song your just setting yourself up to be dissapointed.

boy, I really want to hear that version now.
At the most emotional points, Mike's solo is replaced with a kazoo!

A comment from the Pit regarding the Mike radio interview: "Sweet! Finally we'll get to really hear some in depth info on the album from someone in the band... And we all know Mike gives the best interviews."

Sarcasm, surely?

Yeah, I don't get that comparison, except in the most superficial of ways (they're both mournful ballads).
Which is exactly the point: any SPECULATION ABOUT THE ALBUM is useless until we hear it.
ftfy
Seriously. If people would just start ranking the songs like I told them to we wouldn't have to read this shit.

Why do I feel like Stone's vignette is going to be some kind of giant Rickroll?

I hope that's My Father's Son. That was described as very bassy.

Someone mentioned a 'very jazzy' song in one of the reviews. Can't remember which one.
