Exactly this. It's the best song on the record but it's hard to be most excited about it right now because everything else is so new.bluestate wrote:I can't help but think how floored I'd be with this song if tonight was my first time hearing it, in the context of the album.

I don’t know how they can
But they’re gonna play this one too fast live aren’t they
We just have to get used to it

Re: Dance of the Clairvoyants
Very interested in hearing the live version. But we'll probably have to wait a long while now.

Re: Dance of the Clairvoyants
this might be the best song on the album. how often do they release the best songs as singles? never?

Re: Dance of the Clairvoyants
I think they have done so a few times (at least a five star song on an album with several five star songs), although that will always be subjective, but agree that it's not been close since Riot Act.warehouse wrote:this might be the best song on the album. how often do they release the best songs as singles? never?

Re: Dance of the Clairvoyants
the only song on your list i think is the best on the album is 'given to fly', so this is a rarity for me. regardless, i love this song.Anders wrote:I think they have done so a few times (at least a five star song on an album with several five star songs), although that will always be subjective, but agree that it's not been close since Riot Act.warehouse wrote:this might be the best song on the album. how often do they release the best songs as singles? never?

Re: Dance of the Clairvoyants
Fair enough. Alive was a massive hit at the time, and clearly a five star song then. Go is very solid. A lot of people here have it as their favorite ever PJ song.warehouse wrote:the only song on your list i think is the best on the album is 'given to fly', so this is a rarity for me. regardless, i love this song.Anders wrote:I think they have done so a few times (at least a five star song on an album with several five star songs), although that will always be subjective, but agree that it's not been close since Riot Act.warehouse wrote:this might be the best song on the album. how often do they release the best songs as singles? never?
STBC clearly wasn't. WYA was an odd choice as well, even if it's great.
GTF and NAIS are well deserving for me. Possibly my favorite songs from the albums. About similar to where DotC is for Gigaton.
I Am Mine was a pretty good choice I think. A top Riot Act song.
WWS, The Fixer and MYM are not top 4 songs on their albums for me.

Re: Dance of the Clairvoyants
i think they’ve arguably released the best song on each album since riot act. fixer may be number 2 on backspacer

Re: Dance of the Clairvoyants
This motherfucker might be a 5 star tune. I mean we’ve had it awhile, put it’s hitting in all the right spots for me on the record.

It's the best song on the record and I am so excited they recorded this.
Man, they need to get Monkeywrench Radio going again at Ed's house. I need to hear this live.

Re: Dance of the Clairvoyants
This should have been pushed much, much lower in the album's tracklist.
Like, the one before the last song, maybe. Or third from the end.
