Is this how it actually sounds on the album? Can anyone from the listening parties confirm.

Yes and no. I mean, I recognise this beautiful music, but it is completely different again with singing.

Does anyone think Matt will keep to this laid-back slow jam live?

We hadn't heard the song before with that one. But you're right, that still could happen.

So is Ed singing quiet or loud with this music? Is it hopeful or mornful? Does it reach up to high places or hide behind the music?

Sounds cool. Definately has more bubbles than how the soundcheck sounded but I like it.

I love the random sound effects in it, but I keep imagining bicycle bells and moo cows and it makes me laugh.

i really hope that this song gives and overview the quieter second part of the plate initiates!

I'm sure it will have some godawful chorus that sounds like an 80s sitcom that ruins the rest of the song. Its kinda what they do now.

harmless · Post by **harmless** » Mon September 23, 2013 5:34 pm

It's pretty much what Ed did in Bad Radio too.

Shit, you might be on to something.

We've heard the chorus... right? It was murky but it won't go to any place other than what we've heard.

Tj · Post by Tj » Mon September 23, 2013 5:36 pm

I was hoping for a Cold Confession style lack ot the verse/ chorus sections.

I am still compiling the reviews so you can see the combination per song, but first we need to go and watch the last episode ever of Dexter...

The soundcheck song had a definite chorus though.

Tj · Post by Tj » Mon September 23, 2013 5:39 pm

I take it the sound check song is worth listening to.

Are we sure that this isn't an early Sirens demo before BOB and Ed put a little fixin on it?
