yeah I feel like it's missing a really great single up front, something like that would do wonders for this album. it's still quite good I think, especially given the point in their career that they're at. Neil's voice still sounds pretty good to me!

Hilarious interview.

Aw, teasing the idea that we could have a George Michael cover of "End of the World" is really too much. I agree it's a hidden gem though - that segue at the end of "Nervously" gets me every time.

He may dislike it because that's Tennant playing the twang guitar.

That song doesn't feel like a single at all to me.

It doesn't.

Not single material for sure. But being of a certain age, I have to admit that song (and video) got me.

Still playing the new album a lot. Every time they put out something that doesn't really do it for me, they always win me back round with the follow-up. Fundamental after Release, Electric after Elysium and now this one coming after Hotspot which could be my least favourite album of theirs. Feels like they're a band I can never truly write-off and I was worried after Hotspot, that terrible EP and the never-ending Cricket Wife single.

(And the dance remix is much better than the single.)

Liking "I've Got Plans (Involving You)".

A silver sliver of PSB cover of "Go West" passed through recent installment of Democracy Now---perfect placement of wistfulness x certainty---and I still can't get it out of my head, my head, not that I want to.

Has "A New Bohemia" got a hint of Oasis about it or am I imagining that? (I can't really describe why I think that).
