He lives on Evian and Don Julio 1942

It would be incredible if trag could be at the listening party to be able to be the one to provide RM with a review.

We could start a company selling salt

"well, it is as I thought... it sucks"

"tell us more"

"the drums are bad"

"and?"

"no and, left early, grabbed a pint"

Thats a good example of a song that seemed awesome when they released a clip and the whole version was a let down. I dont particulary hate it, but it seems there is a better version of the song they didnt record.

it's not as bad as the worst PJ songs imo, but the lyrics just make me cringe unfortunately and the mix isn't punchy enough for me

I hate the word cringe so much, and that's RM's fault. This isn't directed at you MH, you just happened to be the post I responded to.

I think the lyrics are describing something powerful, and I appreciate that it is Mike's authentic stab at it, but they do not read as particularly memorable. In some cases they are just flat out awkward.

It is also a song that is screaming to be epic, and neither the music nor Eddie's performance feels particularly epic, though I do think there's a nice build at the end. But its also so oddly hushed on a record that is always loud even when it shouldn't be.

Live it's pretty great - it gets the scope and sweep the album version can't quite match.

I do like Inside job on the album well enough but 3 star songs on tracks that are reaching to be 5 star experiences always feels slightly disappointing.
