Song of the Moment: Future Days

[Jorge]

Baba O'Reilly aside, I cant think of a tune that benefits from the fiddle. But do prove me wrong.

Cotton Eye Joe

[Ms Harmless]

tell that to centuries of folk music, not least Irish, but OK

[Bammer]

Baylor Swift is really crushing the fiddle lately

I'm not denying the existence of music that has the fiddle as a core component. Give me some credit. I'm saying that in my humble opinion its use in modern music tends to do more harm than good. Case in point - Hold Back The Tears by Neil Young; the version on American Stars and Bars with the fiddle sounds twee compared with the raw and emotional acoustic version sans fiddle. As I say, it's purely personal taste. Nails down a blackboard to me.

I don't like the way Eddie is singing lately.

I wasn't too fond of his singing in this performance. But he's awesome all over Gigaton.

I'm talking about his live performances. It's like he is chewing the words, it's really annoying.

I literally can't think of a single song that wouldn't be improved by a fiddle.

I only know one Gary Glitter song and it would be much better with a fiddle in it.

Rest assured that Gary was never one to pass up the chance of a fiddle.

I've always enjoyed this song better as an Ed solo song. I don't get all the hate for it.

[Leatherhead]

I think I like this song now.

took a minute, but a video was just released for Future Days

[Ms Harmless]

the hand was a bit distracting but that was sweet otherwise

[stip]

the hand was. i would have preferred it with just zooming and panning

[dprival78]

for anyone wondering who's hand that is:

Spoiler: show

[Kevin Davis]

Handrew Wotman

that's meant to mimic the projector Ed draws and writes on on stage presumably?
